Plot Synopsis
Storyline
Fletch is a reporter for a Los Angeles newspaper, but he acts more like a detective. When an obscure relative leaves him a Louisiana mansion in his will, Fletch is naturally curious. Arriving in Louisiana, events occur that make him suspect that all is not well, and there is more to the property than he has been led to believe. Written by Murray Chapman <muzzle@cs.uq.oz.au>

Trivia
Although they had no scenes together, Patricia Kalember and Julianne Phillips would star together two years later in the NBC drama Sisters (1991). See more »Goofs
When Fletch rides the motorcycle through the moving boxcar, the train is rolling from right to left. When the gang leader tries to jump through the first scene shows him after leaving the ramp and the train is rolling in the same direction. The next scene shows the wheel of the motorcycle coming through the side of the boxcar and after that, it shows the train rolling in the opposite direction with the wheel of the motorcycle in front of the open door. If the biker missed the door with the train moving, the wheel would be behind the door, not in front of it. See more »Quotes

FLETCH LIVES is funnier than the original. Less gritty than FLETCH, the sequel pits the P.I. against a PTL type fraud group which has it's hand in murder and crime. The sequel thrives on satire complete with a elaborate send up of tv evangelism and a song and dance scene which is a spoof on SONG OF THE SOUTH. Irreverent and clever FLETCH LIVES is one of the better vehicles that CHEVY CHASE was in during the 1980's. FLETCH LIVES sports a ensemble supporting cast and was something different instead of the usual hollywood canned sequel.
