Many (including Lansbury) felt or believed the motive behind moving the series from Sunday to Thursday for the twelfth season was a deliberate plan by CBS programming chief Leslie Moonves to kill it. After all, it was going up against the ratings powerhouse Friends (1994), which was about to get super-show status. But everything Moonves tried in the Sunday slot failed so badly that he wound up double-running this show on Thursdays and Sundays for the last few weeks of the regular season, and then for a summer of reruns. He had to place Il tocco di un angelo (1994) in the time slot the following fall to get a decent audience. The final season alludes to this, with episodes La signora in giallo: Murder Among Friends (1996) (featuring the ensemble cast of the fictional hit television series "Buds") and La signora in giallo: Death by Demographics (1996), the final regular edition, before the show switched to television movies.
