Trivia

Angela Lansbury never won an Emmy for this role despite 12 nominations — the biggest snub in television history.

Cultural

Cabot Cove's murder rate (5.3 per 1,000) made it statistically more dangerous than 1980s Detroit. The 'Cabot Cove Syndrome' became TV shorthand for disproportionate small-town crime.
