#Columbo #PeterFalk #Detective #Mystery #NBC - Zábava
Since they’re in a greenhouse, he could always argue the evidence was planted...
ROFL! haha nice one, wish we had more comments of that calibre.
think people would have seen thru that.....
Ba dum tsss
😂🤪🤣
Nice one sir! Lol.
The great thing about the Columbo movies, since you already knew who the murderer was you could rewatch them over and over just to enjoy Columbo slowly drive the murderer nuts.
Columbo seemed to instinctively latch onto the murderer early on in the investigation and circle around, pretending to be a bumbling fool, but in time revealing himself a genius able to piece together the crime and the cover-up. Yes, it drives the murderer crazy, first with annoyance, then with worry - until finally he (or she) is defeated.
With that perfect smirk
100% then because there are nearly 70 episodes you can forget ones you haven't seen in a while.
@@thinkforyourself2109 It is so richly satisfying.
Could? We’re all rewatching highlight videos right now!
Greatest detective show ever. Sometimes I think Columbo was real, and he played a character named Peter Falk.
9Ballr
Sometimes I really think that like from Wings Of Desire Falk was an angel that fell to earth.
Only in America could they produce a show that tells its audience who did it right at the beginning. And then expext us to watch as the killer lies all the way through until Columbo finds a piece of evidence two minutes before he solves the crime. Dire stuff.
I use to tell my friends that Columbo spoiled me for other detective series. I just love how the crime is commited and we have to pay attention to see where is the mistake ... I hate those modern "whodunnits".
Maria Eddy Cesario
How’d you like Knives Out?
Columbo, "Peter Falk. TERRIFIC actor. My wife and I watch him all the time on....what's the name of that series?"
Mrs. Goodland falling into the chair in relief after refusing the chair in the beginning of the scene is great writing.
Well said. Mrs Goodland criticized Columbo constantly during the episode completely unaware that Columbo would be the very man that would save her!
Thats columbo for you. The bumbling fool who may be the grim reaper or the smiling angel.@mrghiax
The reason Columbo is the greatest show in history, is because Falk portrays,a non materialistic, non conformist guy with many weaknesses,but great morality and wisdom ,kindness,modesty, a benchmark for humanity
Well said!
Yes, well said indeed.
Well mabye not him, but his wife is gunna kill him if he doesn't get that African Violet plant
Morality? Depends on your definition of it. He resorted to some morally questionable ways of deceiving murderers into revealing evidence.
@@highplainsdrafter595 but the end justifies the mean. CLINT.
Fun watching how he's enjoying himself putting on his little show, extending the drama. But then as soon as it's done, he has compassion for the lady. Gotta love him.
Columbo's real gift is timing. Everybody shows up at just the right moment.
That happens only on TV.
Actually, not really. As Columbo said, the killer arrived a bit early, and Columbo prattles on for a while to stall him. Its also possible he timed his calls so that arrivals would be efficient and so expedite what he wanted to do.
We all want to believe that detectives like Colombo do exists, that right triumphs at the end, and all is well. I wish the real world worked like this.
Sometimes it does...Stay Encouraged!
keep wishin buddy.
i realize I'm kinda randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Van Hamza i would suggest flixzone. You can find it by googling =)
@Ahmir Damon yup, I have been watching on Flixzone for months myself :D
No matter how many cases Columbo successfully closes, everyone else never seems to learn not to underestimate him. They should all know by now he's ALWAYS the smartest guy in the room.
... I always felt the same way. I think they treated each of his episodes like mini movies, so to speak. So they were independent from one another. Because he busted some major bad guys. He busted the actual deputy chief of police (hiss boss), a US senator, famous chef, a famous art critic, famous symphony maestro and several other famous or well known people but it was never mentioned. You would think with all the famous people he had busted over the years he himself would have gotten some notoriety but it never happened. Not even the people in his own department gave him credit for being the best detective ever.
@@Tonytrekdax His colleagues in his department knew his reputation. His character was a detective first and foremost and had no interest in climbing up the administrative ladder. His captain had a great deal of respect for him and so did his team and they bent over backwards to obey his requests. In one episode his Captain is complicite in a charade to fool a suspect. This indicates a great deal of professional respect. The only officers who did not show respect was those from outside districts who didn't know him. In almost all the episodes the uniform branch of his command knew him and followed his orders explicitly. He did not give media interviews and left that for his Captain. He was humble and did not seek notoriety and more than likely his character attributed the successes to a team effort. I don't know how you conclude that his departmental colleagues did not credit his brilliance. The shows never showed the backroom conversations. I think the writers chose to keep his rank as lieutenant because that is the highest "coalface" role without significant administrative duties. I think his persona was deliberately developed to portray a brilliant detective who kept a low profile and bumbling manner so that he fooled the high profile criminals. The criminal characters may talk about him to fellow inmates and the word about Columbo may have got around in the underworld but these murderers were mostly well off, first offenders and so would have little association with the underworld for them to be wary of Columbo.
@@droceretik ... don't get me wrong... I LOVE COLUMBO... I've literally seen every episode more times that I can count; I just wish they gave him more "kudos" in the shows. For example, I appreciated in the episode when he was investigating the writer of the Mrs. Mellville Mysteries who killed his writer partner and Columbo mentioned that he always wanted to be a writer and gave the example of the Senator he busted for killing his campaign manager but didn't know how to put that experience on paper. And the other time he was in Mexico and the police inspector recognized Columbo's name as the detective who solved the murder on-board the cruise ship. What I mean to say is... there were just a couple of moments where his pervious cases were mentioned but he never became know as "the greatest detective on the force". Like I said before, he made some major busts in his career and I find it odd that they never built on that. I know he was humble but I think it would have added a layer of "slickness" if a criminal knew who he was and tried to outsmart him. I wouldn't want that for every episode but every once and a while would have been nice.
But he acted like the dumbest one in the room till the "gotcha" moment.
@@289cobra9 After the episode where Columbo successfully entraps the POLICE COMMISSIONER-his boss' boss' boss-proving his guilt in a double homicide, one would imagine the word would be out about him as a man to be feared.
Columbo it's 3 o'clock in the morning, what you are doing here ? Those lines always got me to laugh. Columbo would show up at all hours.
@RJ Walker. 😀
He never sleeps when he is on the case
One of the greatest detectives ever. Peter Falk's right eye was surgically removed when he was three because of a retinoblastoma; he wore an artificial eye for most of his life. The artificial eye was the cause of his trademark squint. ✌
There are times when you can see the difference, and times when you can't. I wonder if it were noticeable in the years before HD and 1080p resolution.
@@bernhardwall6876 it was.
I introduced my teenage stepson to Columbo to illustrate how if people treat you like an idiot, use it. He now owns a "just one more thing" t-shirt.
You just know you’ve had it when Columbo scratches his eyebrow and says, “Just one more thing.”
He had me at, "Excuse me for just a moment."
Yeah, you're screwed! :D
Quite right, you're bloody well right
"Am I bothering you."
Yeah, you've definitely had it.
I just thought I'd drop in at 3am to chat, nothing for you to worry about.

What's up man?

"It's called books. My father read it to me, and his father read it to him, and now I'm gonna read it to you." (Grandpa in Princess Bride)
Cracks me up how ppl get angry with him and he ignores it. Calm and cool and unafraid to face the murderers. Excellent show.
I hated how the murderer kept being a jerk to him from the start. Everything he said was condescending but Columbo kept a cool head. I don’t know how he does it
One thing I like about Columbo is the first ten minutes of investigating the murder he knows who killed the person. He next step is to find evidence. He is so good at testing people’s character.
That was the genius of show runners Richard Levinson and William Link. Turn the murder mystery upside down by showing whodunit, leaving you to wonder how Columbo will figure it out.
I read somewhere that it was very difficult to write an episode of Columbo because of the murderer reveal at the beginning off each show. The writers deserve so much credit for making people want to stick around to see how Columbo nails the murderer. And keep coming back to watch it again! One of the main reasons I have the Peacock streaming service is so I can binge Columbo every now and then. Usually on a Sunday while making chili.
Chili...Columbo's favorite
When I was a kid in the days of 13 channels we used to make sure and catch the “NBC Sunday mystery movie” - you never knew if it would be McCloud, McMillan & Wife or Hec Ramsey, which were fine, but we really tuned in hoping for Columbo.
Hec Ramsey was awesome!
John Watson I preferred McMillan and wife.
13 channels. Kids were so spoiled
I liked McMillan and wife too - they were all good shows
13 ??.. we had only 3 channels..your folks had money..lol
Ray Milland was an absolute top-drawer Oscar-winning actor who was always in demand. "Lost Weekend" and "Dial M for Murder" are just two of dozens of his movies. When TV started to become ubiquitous, he had "The Ray Milland Show' and started doing more TV work. In the previous season of "Columbo," he was in the episode "Death Lends a Hand." There's a waiting-room scene in that episode that really shows his acting chops in that it's full of body language and other subtleties that are never in a script or stage direction but he does just instinctively and effortlessly. It's always amazing to me to witness this. Myrna Loy displays another example of this improvisational genius in "The Best Years of Our Lives" -- her scene with Fredric March in their bedroom after March, her husband, has just returned from a multi-year deployment overseas during World War II.
Check him out in X, The Man with the X-Ray Eyes.
I liked him in Beau Geste and Dial M for Murder.
"If I forget this my wife will kill me." -- And then who would solve his murder?
One of his 20 nephews ;)
Wait just one sec, didn't his wife had her own "show"/series played by Katherine Mulgrew?
@@saalkz.a.9715 There was a show called Mrs Columbo and it was intended to be a spin off of columbo but because it was a flop the writers of Columbo did everything they could to wash their hands of it, in one of the returning episodes of columbo the Lieutenent makes reference to the show by saying "last year there was a woman in my house pretending to be my wife".
Jessica Fletcher. Obviously.
When Columbo starts talking to you in riddles you know it's time to excuse yourself and go quickly pack a suitcase.

Two of my favorite moments in all of Columbo:
1:30 -- "No, sergeant, no."
4:25 - “Mr. Jarvis Goodland, it is my duty to inform you that anything you ... might, uh .... This way, sir.”
Who is that guy playing the Sergeant? I can't think of his name but he was all over the place in the '70s.
@@Drchainsaw77 Bob Dishy
that’s the guy. thx.
Have to say Columbo’s manners are always impeccable !!
Ray Miland was such a noted actor theatrical actor, as was and were alot of the Columbo guest stars! An Academy award winner as well during his peak years in the 1940's, the generation he came from just excelled at acting like no other. R.I.P. Ray Miland.
He was fantastic as Aerostotile Bolt Escape To Witch Mountain
During his military service Ray Milland was acknowleged to be one of the finest marksman in the British Army...
@@jefflockaby702 A shame he missed those burglars that night.
X, The Man with the X-Ray Eyes
What a remarkable detective, Peter played Columbo impeccably. He had the good manners and courtesy to offer the lady a drive home. Thanks for the video. Oh, there's just one more thing......
Season 2, 3 and 4 is Columbo at his peak.
I bought the set. What a great show. Columbo’s wife must have been a terrific lady
69 episodes and 24 movies.
Life long crush.
@@bh7286 You said it man.
I agree. I think I like season 3 the best. The episodes with Jack Cassidy are among my favorites. The episode with Donald Pleasance is my absolute favorite.👍🎥
+1979or1979: Has this been confirmed ?
Those metal detectors were not cheap back then. Several thousand dollars in today's money. But hey, he did remember to grab the plant.
I loled
They were indeed. Though I assume he borrowed it from the police department.
I could see Columbo getting into metal detecting and keeping it for future use but he walks out without it.
FippyDarkpaw2
What if the third bullet was all faked to get a conversion?
@@lizardfirefighter110 Columbo is just a detective story and the way the plot of it is written is the third bullet was fired by the murderer at an intruder who broke into his greenhouse around a year before he murdered his nephew. The screenwriters needed that angle to get around the fact the murderer subsequently planted the gun on an innocent person. So when the gun was found in the possession of the innocent person, Columbo could prove it was the murderers gun, because the bullet he fired at the intruder around a year ago matched it.
He’s my favourite bad guy out of all the episodes. The back and forth between him and Columbo throughout the episode is very funny.
Him and Leonard Nimoy were two of my favorite antagonists here.
@@vguyver2 Nimoy was a standout because that character got under Columbo's skin and is the only time I recall the character losing his cool with one of these killers.
Ray Milland was a fantastic actor. Loved him in this, also Dial M For Murder and Panic in Year Zero just to name a few...
The Man with the X rays eyes ,too
and The Big Clock I forgot to mention as well.
He was also in a superb old ghost story set in Cornwall, when a brother and sister buy a haunted house. I just can't think of the name...
The Uninvited(1944)
@@preving Yes! Well done.
He may look clumsy but he's extremely intelligent :) My grandma loved this show.
There’s nothing better than when the murdered realises “simple old” Columbo has figured it out, known for quite a while and laid a trap for them. He was always the smartest guy in the room.
Just when you thought that maybe she would find a way to show her gratitude to him he finds a way to remind her that he's married.
The endings of this series were always marvelous.
I like how they all just enter the house like they own the place, no knocking, no call from outside...
They just walking in this old man's property.. Not even a warrant or permission to enter.
Miranda Right wasn't even read properly. Pretty sure he'll get out on technicality.
@@araisikewai
It doesn't have to be, but if it is it must be read before the arrest. The suspect needs to know they they are not just a witness being interrogated but a suspect under arrest. A witness has to answer questions. He clearly knew he was under arrest and immediately shut up.
The rules about warrants gets murkier when it comes to outbuidlings like a greenhouse and in many cases the police don't need a warrant at all.
If push came to shove, the prosecution could argue that you don't have the same expectation of privacy for a greenhouse as you do for your living room.
Falk and Ray Milland absolute legends, X-Ray eyes
The master of tormenting everyone with suspense!
4:57 A nice piece of writing there.
He asked to drive her home... then reminded her that he had a loving wife.
5:00 No Thank You Lieutenant. I've seen that car of yours !
Sgt Wilson is one of my favourite characters especially when he comes back in Now You See Him. He is funny.
I really liked him
@Aaron A420 Good comment!
The one where Columbo keeps trying to lose the new jacket his wife buys him but Wilson keeps getting it back for him 👍
Great show. I still watch the reruns on METV broadcast out of Chicago. I think the channel is nation wide now. Lots of great classic shows on that channel. 😀
Every Sunday night,I relive my childhood by watching Columbo.
"Just one more thing. The murder weapon is UNDER your toupee!
along with the elusive key from Dial M
"Well sir....just one more thing...i would like to tell you that sir...Columbo is an addiction !! No matter how much you are tired, but...you see...Sir, when you watch'em, you no longer remain tired".
He always acted the fool to the suspect to make the suspect believe they were in control and that they could play Columbo believing he was an idiot. In reality it was Colombo who was playing them.
Agreed, although its also noted sparsely few episodes/serials actually showed one or two murderers who caught onto him and his; "idiot act" though? Check any Columbo websites to find out which ones though in the trivia sections of those websites. "Strange Bedfellows" from the early 2000's is one i truly recall with George Wendt as the murderer, Columbo struggled to nail that guy cos he wasn't fooled by the idiot act i do recall. Columbo needed help from a local mob boss played by; 'Rod Steiger' i do remember. There are a few others but the names of the serials escape me though, again check any Columbo websites for the various details.
Milland staring down Dishy as Dishy tries to read him his rights is freakin' hysterical.
He shouldn't have stopped really. I think the police have to read the arrest rights otherwise a lawyer can get the suspect freed on a legal technicality.
This is so brilliant. The marvelous thing is that the scriptwriters and the producer, by some miracle, managed to avoid all melodrama and mawkishness. They didn't play up the outrage of the guy's framing her. She is innocent and honest, resilient and tough in her own way, so honest that she's just shocked and astonished by the revelation that he committed murder and then framed her. But this is not played up at all. She'll just get right back to her life. Wonderful understatement! We don't often see this kind of perfection on TV.
Love Columbo. Always good actors in it nd love seeing the houses and interiors. So authentic
Beautiful settings and haunting Mancini scores. There ll never be another sadly.
A lot of major stars appeared on Columbo & Ray Miland was one of them. I remember him in Hitchcock's Dial M for Murder. Thought he was brilliant in it trying to frame Grace Kelly. Columbo was a TV masterpiece.
Ray Miland and Rosie Greer in the Two Headed monster. Wonderful
Comedy!
I remember seeing that at the drive-in when it first came out .. lol
Yeah, I think they both needed to pay off a gambling debt, why else would they have made that movie.
At least they left Ray Miland's head hooked up to the machine at the end. Nowadays, it'd be used as a soccer ball.
I love Columbo... greetings from italy!!
lived in Vicenza,Italy in '86-'87. Loved it.Will always cherish the memories.Patrick,from LasVegas,Nevada...
@@patrickbushong7028 ...
Ahhh, really?
X job or... love story ??
I was in the army,and I met my future wife there.
@@patrickbushong7028 ...
Were u under General Dozier??
watching Colombo shuffle around and speak with his dippy demeanor and his clunking shoes always made me feel quite tranquil for some reason, haha. He was like that Uncle you always wanted but never had; only...you wouldn't want to nick biscuits from his cupboard, he'd spend all day looking for a way to finally incriminate you
If Colombo is in your garden at 3 in the morning, it’s over ,,,
Loved Bob dishy in the episodes he was in--the gadgets he bought--"you must be a bachelor"
classic suspense that never gets old
He is such a good actor. Love watching him. He's probably still collecting those plants for his wife.
This is the first I’ve ever seen anything of this show. That’s pretty good.
This for me was one of my most memorable Columbo episodes along with the episodes such as where William Shatner plays a TV detective who murderers his ex-wife, and Patrick McGoohan plays an army Colonel in charge of a military academy. Ray Milland was great in it. The first time I ever saw Ray Milland in a movie was in an old Charlie Chan movie made in the early 1930's.
Actually in that William Shatner episode you're referring to he killed his ex-lover and show producer
@@FIREBRAND38 maybe he confused it with the other Shatner episode?
Fond memories of watching this with my dad, always loved the gotcha moment. No such thing as the perfect crime when Columbo is around.
What's the other dude doing in a suit at 3am is my main question.....actually why is everyone dressed up at 3am? except Columbo of course...
They had all just been around at the womans' house, searching for evidence for hours, and the killer went there to be "supportive" (really to see his framing of her work and make sure it all went smoothly). He had just gotten back when he heard a noise in his greenhouse which was Columbo waiting for everyone.
They learned the hard way never to underestimate Colombo, he only pretends to be stupid in order to catch out the offender and get them to confess their guilt by revealing incriminating information.
I see everyone else was recommended this for no reason.
I have literally never watched this show in my life. Why am I here?
Oh, no reason at all, sir, but Columbo wonders if you could help him out with just one thing that’s been bugging him.
Glad it wasnt just me. Iv been binging and I'm 5 seasons in and just assumed the machine heard me talking about it
It's Columbo.
Do you really need more reasons?
Years ago I would watch this, Banacek, McCloud, etc. I’d love to see full episodes again 😊
Love this classic episode starring old movie legend Ray Milland,.....the wonderful script and acting throughout our this episode was just so good....Colombo at his investegative best....
Still the best detective show, and it hasn’t aired for decades!
Last episode was 2003
Leesa Lee - yea, I know, but those comeback episodes of the 90’s were not quite the same. Still pretty good, still Colombo, but not the same charm as the original writers had for those first 7 seasons. Don’t get me wrong, I still love em.
@@mloftus8618 No, I agree with you! Still okay, but not as good.
I really loved this show.
The best detective, hands down.
5:14
And just when I thought he was fetching his metal detector.....Columbo is full of surprises.
I love Columbo ! I have the big cigar box which contains all the episodes, but the the picture quality of this clip is amazing !
when i was young i didn't like Ray Milland, but seeing these episodes showed me he was actually a very good actor.
Three Months later...
Judge: Mr. Goodland. Since no one read you your rights at the time of your arrest, you are free to go.
Except there is no three months later....Columbo only has to catch the murderer not see them convicted in court. If the murderer also had to be convicted in court, the screenwriters for the show would make sure Columbo read them their rights and had search warrants before carrying out searches and so on.
Mumblix Grumph Wrong-Ray Milland waived his rights with a glare.
The police could read him his Miranda rights on the way to the police station. It doesn't need to be done at the time of arrest, but it has to be done before interrogation or taking statements. Anything said to the police or done in front of the police by the defendant after the arrest and before having been "mirandized" could succesfully be contested in court as unusable evidence.
Just to be sure nobody forgets afterwards and because you'd never know what the arrested person might say or do immediately after the arrest, it's best that the arresting officer immediately reads him his rights. If that police officer has a good partner, he will read the suspect his rights while the officer himself performs the actual arrest.
@@B-26354 Yes, I hadn't thought of that. Thank you and it made me look it up.
The Miranda warning dates from 1966. Columbo was aired in the 1970s. So you could be right for the first few seasons.
In a drama tv show I don't think it matters to get those things right anyway. They aren't tutorials for young lawyers, psychologists or rookie cops, just meant to be fun.
Columbo is always classic fun.
The Miranda rights don’t matter. They’d all get off because the wealthy hardly ever see the inside of a cell. Lol
Loved Columbo....just came across this and glad I did
Top to bottom, Columbo was a great production and it still holds up great next to today’s shows. Peter Falk is a treasure; if you want to see deadpan delivery, he’s your guy. The people who came up with the stories were outstanding too. Sometimes I thought the director gave the story away a little too soon but I generally hit the mark in finding the villain after ten minutes. Thanks for the great video.
I've always loved Columbo. Been watching Law and Order "Criminal Intent" lately and reminds me of this show. Vincent D' Onofrio is awesome....like Columbo. Just saying :)
You’re right, I never thought of that
I feel the same way. I love Law and Order: Criminal Intent, and it does remind me of Columbo!
Underestimate them at your own peril
I agree. I ended saying the same thing
, Vinnie D. does have a little Peter Falk in him for sure. I love how he bends at the waist to lean into a perp`s face while slowly turning the screws down on them! Haahaaa!!
Please post the whole episodes 😭
OMG...the dynamics of this scene is TOP NOTCH! \o/
Absolutely brilliant. Sherlock Columbo does it again.
He forgot the metal detector!🤫
SIMPLEMENTE LOS VOLVIA LOCOS.... EXCELENTE SERIE.
Superb series, we need him back
The foley and sound mixing is so pleasing in these older series.
You can't hustle Columbo.
Best music in the entire series in this episode
Finally someone said something about the music in this episode. I loved it!!
Your Columbo clips just made me a subscriber.
Yeah he was truly awesome I loved all his shows i truly believed i saw every one and I watch them over and over
I love columbo
Ray Milland was done of best villains to Columbo ever.
This is one of my favourite columbos.
That's the beauty of Colombo. Besides the audience, every murder is fresh and totally underestimates his soft humble bumbling approach. They think he's absent-minded when he's actually intentionally wearing down their patience until they slip. It's a beautiful premise for a show and it makes it so unique from most of the other murder mysteries and whodunits that have aired over the decades.
Just one more thing 🤔
Whatever happened to these types of programs?
They became extremely derivative so we moved on. They'll probably cycle back around. I mean a few years ago we had Monk, Psych, etc. And even some shows like C.S.I and Law and Order are essentially the same thing. They're just becoming less and less original so they're fading out.
now we get shit like the first female to play Dr Who, Jodie Whiticar, Batwomen and StarTrek Picard
the great writers retired and or died off, that's why they recycle old ideas.
Dumped by Hollywood for modern day crap,that's progress.
Bro, detective/crime shows have cannibalized themselves for decades.
One of the top ten TV dramas of all time!
Man the moment she drops into the chair our of relief. Such a classy script.
he really got to the .. Root... of that problem.. : )
Very good
Just one more thing
Ray Milland... are you Welsh? Just done a Wiki check. Wo hah moment
😂😂😂 It's always just one more thing. He does annoy the heck of them.
My favorite episode.
Excellent ending watched it loads of times
Did everyone miss the plot hole about the bullet he just found a little earlier with a metal detector and yet somehow in the wee hours of the morning has already been determined by ballistics to have come from the same gun?
It was a rush job!! 🤣
Do crime labs close? Don’t they have people on night shift?
He no doubt found it earlier then came back to reveal
Every case columbo ever solved would have been unsolvable if the murderer had just not talked to him
Can still watch the reruns with all the enthusiasm as if it was the first there’s so many layers to the story people’s lives and his that you’ll always find something you missed they’ll never age because they’re done by the book in real time with real laws
One small dab of the good quality columbo and all of the problems get solved.
