    Any other LT COLUMBO fans here ?

    Been watching the series on DVD lately ....
    Season's 1 to 7-ish
    I borrowed the DVD's from a bud ....

    The only thing I don't like about the DVD's is they don't include the "Mystery Movie" theme and video.
    Crazy not to include that, imo

    It's been a long time, but I still think Columbo is my fav "cop show" of all time.

    Columbo fans .....
    What's your favourite episodes ?

        all great episodes--
        The Cassidy episodes are all good-
        The ones with Robert Culp are great--
        The Donald Pleasence one is great--Columbo seems to really sympathize with him
        even though he's a killer--
        the Ruth Gordon one is fun
        -ok i like em all-

          I'll be honest, I've not watched enough of these lately to name a favorite but I always enjoy them when I see one.

              It's a GREAT show, an all-time classic!

              I especially love the fact the both Leonard Nimoy AND Bill Shatner have been busted by Columbo! Shatner more than once!!

              Oh, and uh... just one other thing m'aam...

                Until I started watching them on DVD, I never noticed how often he whistles or sings Nick Knack Paddy Whack in so many episodes.

                When he does that, you know he figured out who the killer is

                  I bought 2 seasons because the guest star was Patrick McGoohan. Apparrently in one episode he acted, dressed and referred to the Prisoner. I was a little dissapointed when I saw it because I was led to believe he had laden the episode with more in-jokes than what I detected. Still it was a good show.

                    Love Columbo!! It should be on now. Can't believe they haven't picked it up on one of the cable networks. I remember an episode where the guy kills his wife and hides her behind the wall, wrapped in one of her plastic coat bags. That's what tips him off when he finds a coat in the closet with no bag on it. How many of the CSI and other detective shows have done that, but I can't remember one doing it before that. Even now writers seem to revert back to the classics for ideas. If I remember it was Columbo, McMillan and Wife, and McCloud all on the same night. That was great TV!!
                    It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                      It really should have been included on the DVD's ......

                        Surprised we haven't seen anyone attempt a re-made/updated Columbo. I honestly believe there is no need...

                          Although Falk wasn't the first Lt Columbo, he certainly owned the role and his movies kept me from hundreds of lectures in college. I love Columbo more than a married man should.

                            Oh. . . learn something new every day. Who else has played Columbo?

                            LOVE Columbo. . . .them all. . . no singular favourites. It was on one of our cable channels TV1 for ages. I used to watch daily and record if I had to go out!
