Hello ! Could someone explain why in the title of one famous old tv series "Murder, she wrote" there is such word order? Isn't it more correctly to say "She wrote the murder"?
Thanks un advance ;)

It sounds poetic to change the word order and say it that way, and since she's a writer it makes sense.

Sometimes titles for shows and movies aren’t really meant to mean anything and don’t follow correct grammar. “Murder, she wrote” doesn’t really mean anything. The way I understood it was that it was just a catchy name for a show about a woman who solves murders.

The main character in the show was a writer of murder mysteries. She wrote about murder. Murder, she wrote.

Olga, it’s a bit confusing, but I guess the meaning is that she wrote the word murder and not a novel called “murder”.
Убийство, она написала.
Я ухожу, он сказал.

According Wikipedia: The title comes from Murder, She Said, which was the title of a 1961 film adaptation of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple novel 4:50 from Paddington.
