The CEO having a framed, smirking photo of himself on his desk makes me think of Timothy Dalton in Hot Fuzz, posing with a grin in front of his own portrait - I can't help but laugh.
This episode was a perfect example of how nearly every killer underestimated Columbo until the end. IN this case, the killer was a genius, even wearing a necklace that boasted to the world how smart he was. Then, in the last scene, he hangs that necklace around Columbo's neck as he completely loses it. Loved it.
He’s so charming & playful at the start of this episode, then he slowly starts becoming more stressed and agitated. Such is the effect of Columbo’s scrutiny.
Roddy McDowall is charming but his character, Roger Stanford, is a jerk right from the beginning, always playing practical jokes on everyone
a tip: you can watch movies on KaldroStream. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Milan Omari yea, have been watching on Kaldrostream for years myself :)
@@milanomari7102 is Columbo on there
Shame to blow up a fine Brougham Caddy. Think it's a 1969.
I owned the "70 Sedan DeVille once. Similar.
The best detective television series, hands down. Peter Falk is a legend.
Here's another reason why Roger (Roddy's character) killed Bruckner and Quincy--he feared that Quincy would eventually figure out that he (Roger) murdered his parents when he was in college. Remember, he says that they died in a "freak explosion," which is similar to how he killed Bruckner and Quincy...
You'd think he'd be cleverer than using the same modus operandi on his uncle
Where does Roger mention how his parents died?
@@abinashmishra329it’s when Columbo first visits Bruckner’s house. Right before he leaves when Roger is walking him out Columbo asks about his family history.
I love the scene in the tram where the Lieutenant terrorizes Roddy McDowell with the cigar box!! Brilliant!!
And Colombo are constantly banging on the box, making even me nervous
Then, he puts the medallion around Columbo's neck, and Columbo just smiles and accepts the award.
yes! and a nice twist that columbo shared the things with another person on the tram.
Columbo and Everett Logan (William Windom) seem repulsed at Rogers insane laughter in the end.
"SHUT UP"
Roddy McDowell was fabulous in every role he played.
From this, to Ellery Queen to the Mad Hatter in Batman TAS, he was fantastic.
I found him quite irritating. Not a very convincing actor. Even in that Combat! episode he was weak.
@@stafford777 I composed three compositions that were either dedicated to Roddy Mc.Dowall or inspired by him. I think that he was a superb actor and a sweet person.
The ultimate narcissist: A high-powered CEO who has a photo on his desk... _of himself!_ LOL
He puts life-sized oil paintings of himself in all the Trump-branded buildings. He bought some of the paintings with money he swiped from his fake charitable faoundation.
And it faces in his direction like a mirror.
Trump has a picture of a orangutan on his desk.
@@Denis-cr4bs So, then what's Biden have, a cracked mirror???
@@censusgary But isn't a painting of Donald Trump a gift to the world? But I guess the courts disagreed.
That must be the funkiest, grooviest soundtrack I've ever heard!
I thought the guitar was completely out of tune and had a horrible sound,
@@Timmyboy505 No one cares what you ""thought"".

I just can't believe the quality of those Columbo clips. I've got the DVD collection and there's no comparison, these are way superior, definition and colours are perfect. I wonder how it's done. As for Columbo, he's the best, as always. Thanks for these awesome clips.
Short Fuse is an excellent Season One episode. Overshadowed by Murder by the Book, Death Lends a Hand and Suitable for Framing. This episode is one of my favorites - especially the final scene.
Suitable for framing is the greatest imo. Everything is perfect in that one. The casting, the gotcha moment. Pure columbo magic right there.
@@dchegu Agreed!
@@jllore1917 a friend in deed would be a close second for me, personally
@@dchegu That is one of my favorite episodes as well.
A friend in deed wasn't a season 1 episode. Season three I believe.
4:36 “It’s time for people to stop calling me Junior around here”
5:05 “Good night Junior!”
This again an example of the exceptional high quality the Colombo series was, excellent acting, great music and the filming and clipping are absolutely top notch, they do not even make it as good today, absolutely perfect!
Katsu Zatoichi Except for the continuity error in which Roger mysteriously moves mid-scene in the office from the chair on the other side of the desk to sitting on the edge of the desk next to where Quincy was standing.
@@phdtobe - hehe! You are right, one second he sits in a chair and in the next moment on the edge of the table, looks a bit ridiculous
The 1970s actors generally seemed to be of a higher quality than other decades. This Columbo episode is a good example.
Columbo is still the greatest, don’t know if it’s true but I heard that Bing Crosby had been offered the role of Columbo, I know if he had taken the role, the show would have failed! Long Live Columbo! Peter Falk was an acting genius!
Yes, it's true czcams.com/video/ewotKGUUkLk/video.html
then thank goodness for golf!!
There's talk of rebooting Columbo with Mark Ruffalo in the role but for a movie, not TV. I guess in the light of the success of "Knives Out" studios see a market for mystery movies targeted at grown ups.
@Killer Joe People are just imagining Der Bingle doing an impression of Peter Falk's Columbo and failing at that. He'd be a different character as Columbo, fine, but not iconic.
Trevor Pickersgill If that’s the case there is an infinite level of source material to mine via the works of Agatha Christie, Rex Stout, Ellery Queen, Arthur Conan Doyle, G.K. Chesterton...and so many others. To say nothing of the crop of current crime fiction authors.
I like how the CEO has a portrait of himself on his desk.
It seems like gratuitous egotism. The payoff comes when Roger moves into that office and puts the photo face down on the desk, which naturally Columbo notices.
i see some people around the office also hang portraits of themselves , girls mostly, ok its just girls
The problem with Columbo's suspects is that they always go to so much trouble to commit their 'perfect' crimes. It's their very complexity that allows Columbo to see where they made their mistakes!
The last couple minutes of this clip is quite the 70s jam session. lol
One of my favorite episodes. It's kinda cool that years later in 1989, McDowell and Anne Francis appeared together in an episode of "Matlock".
Glad to see i wasn't the only one who noticed that.
Great that they got Roddy to use a dark room to create his bomb since he was an accomplished photographer in real life.
Does anyone else remember that Columbo, MacMillan & wife and McCloud alternated every week on mysteries of the week. And I think there was a 4th program, anyone remember it? Ah those were the days.
When I was growing up in the early 90s, all three of those shows were played back to back on A&E. Benacheck was another one.
Probably one of the underrated episodes.
The end of this episode is one of my favourites
But in the comments below, someone says it's Brilliant!
@@pressureworks The word "underrated" is not an antonym of the word "brilliant." The episode can be both brilliant and underrated.
Jay K ok Miss Crabtree.
Miss Crabtree???
That was one slick lil character...Arrogance tripped him up, as it always does, and Columbo was there to catch him, as HE always does😂🙌🏾🥰
😳What an appropriate name for a club😆
His trousers were the star of this episode 🤣🤣🤣
@Thehawkeyeguy. Wesley Snipes is very young in this movie.
If this Columbo asked me the time of day , I would hand him my watch and be on the first plane outta the US.
This is one of my favorite early episodes. The gotcha at the finale is so satisfying. Thanks.
I remember seeing this when it was brand new; awesome way the killer gets caught.
Inspector Luger from Barney Miller!!!!!
James Gregory here also played coach Rizzo in "The Most Crucial Game".
And Inspector Lugar on Barney Miller
@@allankelly2500 Also in a Partridge Family episode in his usual CEO role.
He was just like the character he played in "Night Gallery".
I really love the music the go-go dancer is dancing to. Such a cool scene!
One of the top FIVE shows on T.V. of all time. Hands down!!!
Loved Roddy McDowell from the time I was a kid.
"Oh, you are superb Quincy, you really are. You are the best combination chueffer / private detective in the buisness"
I was watching this on DVD two days ago. It was a clever but risky plan. One little box causing such destruction.
All I can think of is Fright Night lol
”Better than the Borgias.”
The ending of that episode is great. The murder yelling at Colombo and try to threw all the cigars out of the cable wagon. And then hear that it is not the cigarbox. One thing I really like about seen Columbo is the big cars they are driving.
His uncle should have suspected him of something, after he turned all nice and compliant…no screaming matches, etc.
That's Cornelius from Planet of the Apes.
That was Inspector Luger from Barney Miller....and Ursus from Beneath the Planet of the Apes.
I like how at the end of every video, we hear Columbo, "Just one more thing."
That is the first time that smoking a cigar isn't bad only for Colombo's health...but deadly for other persons..including our smart killer...
(The last movie scene)....
cigar
This is 1971 and DL's suit and Limo are straight out of the 1960s.
I have had this caged girl disco music in my song list, and even had it as a ring tone for a bit. It was too good and so I never answered my phone.
It's got some amazing acid jazz bluesy rock guitar licks at 7:53-
Is there actually a name for the song that I can search and download?
Best detective ,actor in the history of television in the whole Galaxy, not just the milky way 😆😁
The Milky Way is the whole galaxy.
Not just a section.
Gotta love how his entire plan hinges on nobody being around to witness him messing with the car for a solid minute as well as the mechanic never glancing up or being faster with him checking under the hood.
The smugness of the villain throughout the episode was so aggrevating.
the groooovy music mooooves me.
The Club Narcisse is the perfect place for this guy to take his girlfriend.
How times have changed across the years.
Notice 1) no one fastened their car seat belts, 2) people smoke in restaurants.
And D.L smoking near gas pumps.
The scene when he calls Quincy “the best chauffeur/ private detective in the business “ always makes me literally “lol!” A superb episode- one person MIGHT have taken him seriously was Adrian “liquid filth “ Carsini! 😂
Roddy McDowell kind of looks like Jim Morrison. The eyes.
I think that there is something about him that is like Jim Morrison..his lips..eyes, something and he loved literature like Roddy did.
The guy from 'The Spook Who Sat By the Door' Movie! ….but yeah….Columbo is awesome.
Full, please!
Does this guy have a picture of himself on his desk?
Gee? Ya think that was filmed in the 70s? Groovy Baby!
Every time I see James Gregory, all I see is McDonald from the Matt Helm movies.
When he talks, I hear Lionel Barrymore.
Well, whatever his character's qualities, Gregory didn't appear to be anywhere near as bellicose as he was in playing General Ursus, less than two years earlier. Of course, he doesn't appear anything like Ursus at all. Kind of neat for him to be in this episode with McDowall. Their characters weren't any more simpatico here.
I liked this for the funky music near the end as much as I liked it because its Columbo
Roddy McDowall his usual great self but look at 41-year-old Anne Francis! Wow! And Ida Lupino, who was 54 here!
Roddy was hot....and gifted...all these actors were superb...Roddy was gorgeous
The old school CEO office that you don't see anymore. Today it's all contemporary crap with the smell of toxic imported drywall in the air.
urr durr 1960s parasites are better than modern parasites!
Whomsoever you are. The office white collar and his chauffeur Quincy with the apt cigar / briefcase / charmer office reminder of secretary 69 🍷🍷 hic & black suit perfectionists through whom the work world runs. & At Lloyd's London it's still the same. Mr UNPandey family. Virna 39 🌷 🍷
Oh Corneilious !
God, I really hope that they didn't actually blow up that classic Lincoln limo. That monster was beautiful. The villain's Ferrari Daytona was pretty sweet too.
The limo was 1969 and this was 1971. The limo was still fairly new so they weren't going to blow it up. It was used in at least two other columbo episodes after this. I believe the last time they used it was in 1974 for "A Friend In Deed".
If they'd actually blown up a car they'd have made sure you saw it. They wouldn't waste that money for a big cloud of smoke with some bits of cardboard being chucked around
Roddy McDowell Sporting the same haircut and wardrobe that Bill Bixby wears in The Incredibke Hulk and The Courtship if Eddie's Father 😅🤣😆
......so, this is the nerdiest thing I’ve ever done, but the wiring he used in the cigar box is lacquered covered copper. It requires the lacquer to be removed by sand paper or a sharp edge, but most melt it with a soldering iron, it’s useless unless one of these steps is taken..............................
Yeah the bomb construction scene doesn't make any sense to me. Sure he mixed up some explosive concoction and poured it into a cigar case. But there is no power source, clock, or anything else. Oh well, it's still my favorite episode.
Anne Francis in two episodes. She was a hottie! 😍
In this episode, the murderer’s parents were killed in a freak explosion at the plant when he was in college. I always wondered if he had killed his parents too. 🤔
HOW COLUMBO MISSED THIS ONE. THE MURDERER HAD THE WEAPON ALL THE TIME IN FULL DISPLAY FROM THE START !!!! IN HIS PANTS !!!!
The greatest funk rythm of all time 7:50
Three bad guys, two killed by the third.
Some of the victims had it coming wit their evil behavior
poor inspector luger. he's up there with ol' brownie now.
Kliener and Foster
@@bornyesterday21 = yeah, ol' foster. sheesh. couple of punks blew his brains out all over 4th avenue. never stood a chance.
@@skullduggery3377 lol
@@bornyesterday21 - it's on right now. the early episodes though. i prefer the episodes after dietrich arrived. some of the early ones are actually pretty bad...lol.
🤩👍 What an ‘explosive’ 🧨💥 scene ! 💫✨
I've just realised..the killer is the vampire hunter in fright night 😂.
Roddy McDowall.
known for playing Cornelius and Caesar in the original Planet of the Apes film series,
Great episode 👍
This was one of the episodes in which Columbo makes the villain confess in some way. But the problem with this was how come there was any fuse at all? How come the villain purposefully decided to put a minute timer on the cigar box. Wouldn't it have been simpler to have the box explode immediately upon opening the box.
Also, did you notice that the victim gave a cigar to the mechanic. If he hadn't he would have had a cigar to smoke on the trip and the plot would have fell through.
It would've been simpler, but this guy is obsessed with how clever he is. It's possible he didn't think it through, or something about the mechanism he had was easier to use with with a timer, and he figured it wouldn't make much difference.

“Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he
lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.”---- Ernest
Hemingway..
I think I have to say that I feel bad for anyone in a family who is next in line to a fortune and has a legitimate claim to it by birth, especially when their whole life they have been lead to believe they will get it, only to discover that another person has managed to change things to stop this happening, like in this case.
7:49 yeah man. Totally groovy ! Like way out!

Alguém tem o seriado Colombo dublado?
This clip proves that smoking--even cigars--is hazardous to your health. In fact, there's even a Columbo episode dedicated to this entire concept called "Smoking I Hazardous to Your Health," co-starring George Hamilton.

Smoking really is bad for your health. 😁
Anne Francis was so pretty in this episode.
Does anyone know the model of the car of the killer? Thank you
It's a Ferrari.
What did he put under her desk?
A small holder of cigars
DL's leather cigar holder. National Lampoons Xmas Vacation, Uncle Louis, has one like it in a scene.
James Gregory was the Uncle and Anne Francis the girlfriend.
