I don't rate this one quite as high as I usually do. Nothing wrong with it,
it delivers as fans expect. And, to be fair, no series, even one as excellent
as MSW, can be expected to hit home runs, or even triples, all the time!
I think what holds this episode down a bit for me is the Oklahoma setting.
Oklahoma is a fine state, but for this armchair adventurer, the episodes I like best are when Jessica is someplace either exotic (Paris, London, etc.); or home in Cabot Cove; or maybe in New York City, where there are detectives with New York
"attitude" who have sparks flying with our shrewd New Englander.
The episode shows Steve Forrest's character as an over-the-top televangelist,
which is a stock character in so many TV shows. Again, it's an OK plot point,
it's just not all that amusing, as perhaps the writer intended. The guest cast is strong as usual. A good though not great episode.
