Rewrite for Murder

About This Movie

So here’s an interesting find, 'Rewrite for Murder' is this unaired pilot from 1991 that stars George Clooney and Pam Dawber. You can almost feel that late-night TV vibe, sort of a mix between comedy and mystery, reminiscent of 'Moonlighting.' The chemistry between the leads is pretty engaging, though the pacing feels a bit off in places, typical of pilots trying to find their feet. The whole premise of writers turned amateur sleuths adds a nice layer, and there’s a lighthearted tone that keeps it watchable. It’s not groundbreaking, but it definitely has its quirks. Plus, seeing Clooney in those early days is a treat—he has that charm even back then. It's a slice of TV history worth checking out.
