I was talking about this to a friend the other day but she didn't have any recollection at all. I haven't found what I'm looking for online either so I'm wondering if I've dreamt the whole thing up!
When I was about 8 or 9 maybe there used to be a TV anthology series called Murder, Mystery, Suspense. At least I'm sure that's what it was called. I grew up in Britain but this series was American and I think it was shown on ITV. It was a weekly drama, shown on a weeknight, and on quite late (ie past my bedtime!) so I don't even know how I got to know about it! I think the opening credits included dark and gloomy storm clouds. I quite like such shows so I'd like to see it again but can't seem to find it.
Does anyone know which anthology series I'm talking about? Oh and it was broadcast during the 1980s if that helps at all.
And look what I found!

It does sound ever so familiar to me an all! I'm going to have to do a quick search!
This really does sound so familiar to me... I'm sure I must have watched it. I need to do my research now or this will bug me all night!
I'm American and I don't think I know this show even though it does sound alot like something I would watch. But then if it was made in the eighties, Id of been real young then so maybe I don't remember.
I do remember this TV series. All that talk about storm clouds have jogged my memory. But was it actually an anthology series or was it a collection of non-related TV movies grouped together under the MMS heading? I'm not sure why but I'm betting on the latter.
I think I remember this. I don't recall any actual episodes but I do remember the commercials that's been mentioned.
Oh goodness, talk about a blast from the past! Yes, I remember this show. It was advertised a lot on ITV. And the opening, as far as I can remember, does sound a lot like Sherbette described. I feel it was on at around 10pm on a weeknight but it couldn't have been on that late as I do remember catching bits of certain episodes so maybe it was on at around 9pm perhaps? I remember seeing the end of one episode where a man was buried alive. Not a nice thing for a young child to be watching but what on earth was I doing up at that time???Perhaps my parents can explain! 😁
I didn't realise it was an anthology series which I'm a huge fan of. I've made no secret of that! I though it was some kind ongoing drama series. I would love to see it again.
You don't have to worry Sherbette. You're not losing the plot and you're certainly not dreaming. I'm a few years older than you and I can tell you that there absolutely was a TV series with that name in the early 80s I believe. I know I watched some of Murder Mystery and Suspense when it was first shown (not sure if it was ever repeated) but I must confess I don't actually remember any of the episodes. I know I enjoyed it at the time so i would like to see it again. I'll see if I can find it - somewhere!
