Everybody gangsta till Columbo says "just one more thing" lol
Ikr, lol...
This is one of my favorite comments online I've seen this year .
@@EmilyKresl 😂
Amen Realtime
Most gangs know not to mess with three people. Jessica Fletcher, Frank Columbo, and Mister Rodgers.
Definitely Mister Rodgers.
One of the only episodes where the murderer tried to actively kill Columbo after he was caught. I think that happened only four times in the entire series, and, as usual, Columbo anticipated it and left him looking like a bigger idiot than before.
Agreed. The definitive Merlin.
A lot of times, the killer is very cordial and respectful of Columbo. Once, the killer was a vintner, and after the reveal and proof, he agreed to go quietly. Columbo surprised him with a choice bottle of wine, which the killer smiled and opened to drink on his way to prison.
@@nymalous3428 I think this was a part of that episode....
@@bjbell52 No, because the murder occurred in a sealed wine cellar. The whole episode was wine themed. And the arrest happened in a quarry where the guy was trying to dispose of evidence.
@@nymalous3428 I was talking about Columbo sharing a bottle of wine with the murderer.
Columbo REALLY hated this guy. He was relishing every second of bringing him down.
actually i think he was being a bit harsher than usual on purpose, to throw him off kilter so he'd go for the kill command and have him 100% dead to rights guilty
@@ogto so that's how columbo got the key word, l was very interested to find out, l don't know anyone whp says rosebud accidentally, not even those who garden a lot
@@cl759 he got the keyword for their previous discussion of rosebud. but i think in this scene he confirms that the killer also knew the keyword, that's why he was baiting him
As ever Columbo’s cases are mostly circumstantial. He relies on confessions or clear evidence of guilt that the perpetrator themselves provide to seal their fate. So he’s intentionally riling someone who thinks he’s intellectually superior to get that result.
@@michaeljames4904 columbo, master baiter
Columbo was a genius. A blue collar intellectual. The rich, uppity murders never had a chance. Peace.
@@thedukeofnuts blue collar in the sense of values and personality. If you were a guest murder columbo would have ya fooled all the way!!! Peace.
Columbo states it himself in one episode. He isn't a genius he's just tenacious and has one advantage over catching people much smarter than he is, He as the detective can make loads of mistakes but the murderer only needs to make one.
@Farb S
I always thought his biggest attribute was his preternatural ability to notice the most seemingly insignificant details and combine them for a complete picture of what happened.
And yes, his dogged determination... when he gets the scent he's like a machine. A very polite machine to be sure... but still a machine.
@@24magiccarrot He also explains in the episode with all the genius people in the house that he always knew he'd have to work harder, put in more time than anyone else. Plus as he says, he enjoys his work sir
Peace.
I love how Columbo goads the Doctor into revealing the attack command by ridiculing his intelligence!
I thought the writing was ridiculous
He reminds me of Dr House. Incredibly observent and loves what he does for the puzzles.
They don't make Doctors like they used to, as the BBC is showing us.
I think it had more to do with him admitting he knew it was him.
@@exitscreaming
That's why you're an accomplished screen-writer... with several Oscars on your fireplace mantel? And you're published in many different languages... on several continents?
Not to mention you're a highly respected film critic... and your observations are posted in the _Times_ & the _Trib_ every Sunday..?
Makes sense 🤔
8:25 _"You knew the command . . ."_
_"The point is sir, YOU knew the command."_
yes, but there are no witnesses to him saying the word, so its columbos word and his
bababa remember how he solved the case before that exchange even happened?
I think there's probably enough evidence piled up to secure a conviction either way. He'll also have the testimony of the dog trainer who deprogrammed the dogs. While they won't be able to demonstrate the dogs responding to the programming, they've probably got more than enough.
@@bababa3917 - 5:30 as Columbo says the kill command would be a bonus - it's not necessary to the whole case - which is how he tricks the killer into trying to kill him. Because he knows that Columbo already has enough to nail him with and he's desperate.
"Well, my father told me that" - rare instance of Columbo talking about himself completely honestly. When he is talking about the game he is talking about investigating. That means that his father was a cop and his mentor. Great scene
My father taught me, is what he said.
@epoce d20: You completely butchered it. SMH 🤦♀️
Good point. He was usually talking about his wife or a relative.
His Father was a tail gunner on a beer truck during prohibition!
That you can not be sure of that. In another episode he let the murderer believe the picture in the frame was his wife when it was a cousin or else.... He is not stupid enough to let go any clue regarding his private life. If he has one.
"I'll bet my life on it." the fucking balls of pure steel on this man, knowing there are two dogs who were trained to kill a man when a command was spoken are in the other room. Columbo is such a power player.
He knew the dogs had already been deprogrammed.😉
@@bluerev very true.
@@bluerev Thing is a dog who was re-programmed will not growl when he hears the old command, those dogs growled and snared threateningly at Columbo before they kissed him.
Strange this one because the dog's were trained to attack the person saying rosebud so the murderer wouldn't of said rosebud.
@@terryreknaw6152 I thought they were conditioned to attack people and are switched on with the word rosebud. It is said they were trained on a straw man wearing doctor hunters jacket so they were sort of conditioned into attack Dr Hunter
I read that Peter Falk got Alzhiemers in later life, and didn't remember playing a character called Columbo. So sad. My all time favourite cop show. Never copied or bettered.
Maybe he actually got to enjoy watching Columbo and experiencing the awesomeness we all had
@@sryth1 I like the way you think.
@@sryth1 I, too, like the way you think.
Actually “ The Cheap Detective” copied the character (different name) & plot, so it was kinda better, due to the hilarious comedy & all star cast!
@@sryth1 i, like those 2 guys, too, like the way you think
It’s amazing that Columbo always stays calm and calls the killers ma’am and sir.
Columbo, is a class act all the way, it's a shame they don't make TV programmes like this anymore.
@@rebeccamcnallyiiiuiiioothj6743 it’s not a shame. Ir grrrrr a great. We can keep these memories gold.
I believe Columbo remained calm because the script called for it. None of this really happened… it’s in the script.
@@davidsettles9444 Exactly none of it was Columbo, it was ALL the writers.
@@marilynwillett804 Right Marilyn… that’s what I’m talking about.
One of the better gotcha endings, especially as Columbo is goading him into trying to get him with the dogs.
One of the many times in Colombo their best bet was to stay quiet and get a good lawyer, but he always gets the arrogant ones lol
@@hello-ox5rf Hell your best bet is always to stay quiet and get a lawyer.
@@DeathnoteBB True that. But he means the murderer’s would have gotten away with it had they stayed quiet. In so many other Columbo episodes, they’re pretty much boned even if they do stay quiet.
columbo got plenty of nerve asking to play on the killer's pool table then tells him how disappointed he is in his sloppiness as a killer. columbo got mad swag! respect. ✊🏽
Peter Falk was a decent pool player, and you can tell by the way he shoots. This isn't the only 'Columbo' episode he played pool in, either.
The great Nicol Williamson as the smug doctor and killer.
@@floppabingussled Funny that this actor doesn't even recall this episode! So I've heard......
It is Nicol Williamson, the best actor of his generation.
@@burstcity3832 Seems odd to me hearing him without his usual British accent.
I can't believe it took me until my late 20s to get into Columbo, this man and his methods are timeless.
Better late than never. The show is perfect! ^.^
It's because we didn't understand as children. I grew up with it, too. But I was little. I didn't get it. Then as a teen, I didn't watch because I didn't have to. Now I get it! I get it so much, I've got them all on DVD.
@@pianotm - Yes, funny, as my experience is almost identical. My parents used to watch Columbo when I was a little kid, and I never could get into watching it. For whatever reason I began watching them as an adult, somewhere in my 40's, and just loved them! It quickly became one of my favorite shows to watch, and I don't tend to watch much TV. To this day I still cruise around the channels looking for Columbo episodes to watch.
Hahaha I remember, I loved murder mysteries, but I hated Colombo because you didn't need to figure out who the murderer was. Now having a bit of life experience, I realise it's brilliance.
Hey I was in my mid 30s when I discovered Columbo. Don't feel bad
"i must say i find you disappointing"
That probably hurt a lot to the villain bcs he's a narcissist
yup, a beautiful insult. I love Columbo.
Niall Craig they all are in Colombo
true LOL
Columbo took a hell of a chance with the Dogs. What if the deprograming had failed ?
@@FractalRaver - Ah! Not always. The one with Ruth Gordon was excellent. The character she played wasn’t a narcissist; she was out for revenge over the almost certain murder of her daughter. The vast majority of the culprits were narcissist, but not all. The character played by Donald Pleasance wasn’t.
"When I say that's it, that's it. All right, one more kiss and that's it!" 😂
LoL columbo just walks in dude's house at night! Then decides to play on his pool table and ask if he wants to join him...like a boss 😂😂
Yeah I love Columbo bigly, but it does require quite a suspension of disbelief.
For one thing, good the guy accepted the game, otherwise all that setup is for nothing. Let alone:
"BTW, during this investigation, I got someone to retrain your dogs to snarl for a bit then kiss me when you say the kill command. Cos it's basically like patching software, right?" 😂
i never get tired of watching these. its simply brilliant acting
Same, I never get tired of watching any of the episodes. You know before the Lieutenant is introduced who did it. The pay-off is in the journey, the entire journey
Facts
brilliant writing actually
I have seen these episodes over and over through the years and they are still the best.
Faulk was amazing, but the writers were underrepresented
I'll tell you what. Peter Falk was a very decent pool player. I just looked it up and and found out he used to hustle. That's a nice fact to know. I play a lot of pool and I love Columbo, and to see him with a talent for pool playing makes me like him even more.
I can guess that. He hits the shot into the centre pocket so smoothly and yet there is a lot of power. He seemed to be pretty good
Lol I wanna see him hustle now. “oh I’m not too good at Pool… You see my wife, and she’s a lovely woman, my wife even says I have two left hands!”
I've always wanted to try pool.
Best thing I could do is get those small plastic sets 🤣
He must have been a good golfer too, because in that episode when he pretended not to know how to golf, his swing was like a professional.
also a good golfer
What a hilarious ending when the dogs kiss Columbo.
I love this Rosebud episode.
@@foureyedchick it's my favorite one.
Can't get enough of this episod...from the beginning to the end.
Really rubs it in.....because I LOVE Dobermans! The villain also uses 2 irregular commands on the dogs.....this time there is no phone call,and he points to Columbo....
7:48 Columbo is thinking : I hope that dog trainer lady did a good job.
I love the subtle characterization of Columbo as a pool shark: Pretending that he only has a faint idea of what he's doing in order to lull his opponent into a false sense of security...only for him to slowly reveal that, not only does he know everything that's going on, he's also planned every single move well in advance. Didn't notice the symbolism of it until now.
The British LOVED Columbo with the murder 'solved' in the beginning it makes a delicious game of cat and mouse that is a fresh twist on the classic British mystery.
America: You're welcome
Actually, the idea was Russian. Ever heard of Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment?
@@johnnybrighton9156 That inspired Columbo?
Even if it had been a standard whodunnit, we British would have loved it anyway, for Falk’s peerless performance, the calibre of guest stars and high production values.
@@johnnybrighton9156 Apples and Oranges.
"Don't worry Sir, it's just a 'Theory'." I love the double entendre here, as most people confuse theory and hypothesis. The Hypothesis is actually the guesswork, the Theory is actually the mathematical formula that demonstrates how something works. So when Columbo says this, he's totally messing with the guy because he already has it all figured out. :)
But the fact that something is already a Theory, does not yet mean that the Theory is correct. Not sure if this disclaimer applies to a Columbo's Theory.
That's what "theorem" means in mathematics; it's not what "theory" means in standard English usage.
When I was growing up all I knew between a theory and a hypothesis is that "A Hypothesis is a theory that you can test" - Buddy the T-Rex from Dinosaur Train
@@noahvcat9855 As best as I know, hypothesis is usually along the lines of a if-then testable guess but a theory is an explanation of why the hypothesis either did or did not bear fruit.
@@antoncid5044 Oh well that seems more clearer and understandable from what I got thanks anyway
Played beautifully! Columbo gives Dr. Mason so many backhanded insults the Doctor just couldn't resist.
His forehanded insults are pretty good too (pun intended) 😃
What is the name of this episode? I've never seen it. They never show these lost episodes 😢
@@BlackVinylRecordLost?I saw it several times...
What’s impressive is that Columbo hit every pool pocket in the order of evidence presented. He indeed plays a “good game”!!!
"Don't feel you have to comment sir...it's just a theory"
Love that line!
A theory from Columbo is like a theory from Albert Einstein - you may not be able to prove it, but you would be a fool to bet against it.
😂😂
I know! So great.
I LOVE Columbo so much so that even if he is on TV and I'm not watching but listening to him in the background while Im doing other things , he makes me feel comfortable.
Greetings from Italy
💯
Interesting, but don't they dub the films into Italian in Italy so that you don't hear Columbo talking but someone else?
@@OnnikMusic Yes but I can set my TV and leave it in the original language. His Italian dubbed voice is comforting too though.
@@lorenzonotarianni1667 Thank you for your reply. It is reassuring that you can have that choice in Italy. I personally prefer to hear any actor in the original voice, considering that voice in acting is of paramount importance. Wish you joyous days in Italy, which I visited back in 2006 and of which I had an unforgettable and best experience of travelling abroad.
@@OnnikMusic Your welcome and I'm glad you enjoyed visiting my country.
Because of my ADHD sometimes I struggle to understand what goes on in Detective/Crime shows, however, with Columbo, without even seeing the entire episode, I completely understand everything from the explanation. Brilliant.
These videos are perfect for me (I also have ADHD) because I struggle to keep my attention focused on full tv episodes. These wrap everything up nicely and provide enough context for me to feel like I’ve watched the full thing.
@@statementofjoespooky1660 Don’t get me started about movies longer than 1 hour…unless it’s a crime subject. I also gave ADHD but never knew why I couldn’t get into a book (you know those 19th century masterpieces).
Brilliant writing.
As I descend into Alzhiemer's, I experience the same thrill at the end.
I completely understand
I love how respectful Columbo is with the murderer, even though sometimes you can tell he's seething within. But he'll rarely drop the mask of civility and remains remarkable humble throughout the reveal...
Columbo knew the who, how, and why from the get-go but still needed to crawl around in the dirt for swatches of cloth and pieces of straw. Plus, he had to find the photographs and the dog-trainer, then convince the judge to work with him. And in the end he was willing to withstand the possibility that the de-programming didn't take 100%.
This episode always angered me because those dogs loved and trusted him and he just USED them. He would leave them to be put down when they were just doing as he wanted. I LOVED watching him squirm for Colombo 😈
He even tried to feed them chocolate, the monster! Thankfully Columbo showed up just in time to save the poor things.
Of all the murderers, I think this guy was the one I actively hated the most. Any sympathetic quality he had was overshadowed by his lack of respect for any kind of life, human or otherwise. It made for such a satisfying takedown by Colombo.
This was when television was Art.
True.
This is serious nostalgia goggles. We sit through a tedious exposition of a ludicrously convoluted and contrived plot, and an even more absurd climactic confrontation. You need to scrape the absolute bottom of the barrel on what’s on television today to find anything this poorly written, poorly shot, and poorly acted.
@@normative Yes go watch some "reality TV show", they are well written, well shot and well acted.
I love Columbo.
But just in recent decades, we have had The Wire, Breaking Bad, Sopranoes. Hell Monk is a hell of fun, if you are looking for Slueth show. TV probably has never been better than it is right now.
And music...
This is my favourite 'gotcha' out of all of the episodes - Colombo absolutely pulls the guy to pieces while clearing the pool table lol
"My friend his name is Charlie" HAHAHAHAHA love Columbo always!
For me, Its the expression on Columbo's face when the killer said "watch the dogs" 🤣
Falk was a genius. You can watch him again and again and it's just amazing how clever the actor is to make the character what he is! The series was great too because it was lifted by great actors playing the murderers and hamming it up
I was a lonely, troubled kid in high school. Watching the NBC Mystery Movie when it was Columbo on a little black and white TV in the privacy of my bedroom cheered me up greatly. Now at the age of 65, still love him!
"May I show you sir,in the study?" (the man follows him,and so do the dogs)......freakin loved that!!!!
This was a brilliant series of Colombo. Trapping the killer with his own trick. True brilliance.
I really love this ending scene. Especially the dogs jumped to Columbo to KISS!
Even Merlin's magic couldn't defeat Columbo's logic (a Excalibur reference).
yep
Merlin v Angel
So that’s who it is, was bugging me big time! Thanks a mill
So much for the Charm of Making. It used to work so well...
Dude, I knew I'd seen that guy before...Merlin
That moment when the killer realizes he's caught in Columbo's trap is always the highlight for me. Great performances....
ROSEBUD ... Another Gem Episode
"You play a first rate game Lieutenant". "Well my Father taught me Sir" lol!!!
It's great how he baited the murderer into sicking the dogs on himself. Proof that he knew the kill command.
Columbo always has a theory on how the murder happened right from the start,then he follows his intuition until he finds out he is right,this is what I have observed in all episodes.Complete Genius.
Two utterly brilliant actors in one classic scene , masterpiece
First episode of Columbo I ever watched with my dad many years ago.
Always loved the character after seeing this.
Haha i just laugh every time i see that ending. He completely clowned this so called "intellectual", completely devestated him.
Are you allowed to comment here without Mother's approval?
I imagine you especially liked the part about him getting caught in so many stupid lies?
You appear to be something of an intellectual yourself!
Nicol Williamson, Leonard Nimoy, Ruth Gordon , Ray Milland, Johnny Cash...Columbo had such a diverse cast of villians he had to spar with in a delicious game of cat and mouse. Looking at these old episodes, it seems these Hollywood legends had as much fun playing such devious villians against Columbo!
Forgetting some..? Jack Cassie. 16-17-19
@@virnamisra1657 yes of course! and let's also not forget Patrick McGoohan!!
Robert Culp
The actor is amazing. His facial expressions speak volumes. Like when Columbo calls him incompetent and a liar his expression is of someone who will not tolerate even the smallest slight. Then when he calls the dogs his face is evil. Evil. Then his shock and disappointment when things didn’t go as expected.
This is one of my favourites of the original series. Loved the final reveal scene--Columbo really had only circumstantial evidence until the murderer used the kill command, clearly with murderous intent.
That was exactly the point. The murderer probably wasn't as smart as he claimed, or he would have known all he had to do was play along with Columbo and say nothing, and he would have gotten away with it. But he foolishly fell into Columbo's trap when he gave the kill command. This kind of arrogance I s what brings many of the murderers in this series down.
@@nolanboles8492 Well that was the point of the character. He had issues with his bad temper, that was the reason he murdered his wife and her lover.
Columbo had a LOT of circumstantial evidence, more than enough to put this guy away, and more than many real life murder cases that end in a conviction. Getting the murderer to issue the kill command was more the icing on the cake (and means he can also charge him with attempted murder of a police officer), but once you've established that the dogs have been trained to kill, their owner is the obvious suspect, and as Columbo said he really did leave enough other clues to sink a ship.
Even without him trying to kill Columbo, this killer would have been facing an uphill struggle to prove his innocence.
@@jonathancampbell5231 Yes, I loved how he managed to ADD the charge of attempted murder to his crime list.
2:20 Peter Falk has an incredible hand for billards!!
That moment with the elcro-cardiograph....pure genius! The ball hitting the pocket, pulling out the paper, unrolling it....such great suspense!
Of course the Lieutenant solves yet another case with his brilliant reasoning & attention to detail! 😷

We watch a Columbia episode every night before falling asleep - love it so much !
laura martinet Hard to stop with one.
"Columbo", not "Columbia" [spellcheck]. But, hey, that would be an excellent idea for a female detective, lol
I love how he presents evidence as though he’s sorry to be inconveniencing the killer
I never knew this show existed, but CZcams recommended it for some reason, and I can't get enough of this guy! A show from the 70s, I never thought I'd see the day myself! What a great show! And having Nicol Williamson is just gold.
But do u notice Columbus tone, stance is so different he does this in some shows. Plus his passive aggressive and blatant belittling of murders is hilarious. Peter Falk changed how he played columbo intermittently sometimes jovial, conniving, bashful, manipulative
That's because here he needs to anger the killer enough to make him command the dogs to kill. He's not changing how he played the character, this is the character using different strategies as defined by the script.
@@goldeneddie right...it's all there as part of the Lt.Columbo package...he finds who he thinks is the most likely and investigates them by badgering.
Columbo didn't have to be so savage, but he really didn't like this dude🤣
Nicol Williamson. Great, underrated actor, left us way too soon
One of the finest actors of his generation.
yes and it shows in this short clip.
Yea he was great in this, real sneaky and shady, great acting.

@@kurtkensson2059 that metal headpiece was inspired
TV’s greatest detective. Never equaled, likely never surpassed.
I think I've watched every episode about 100 times. This one is just so clever. :D
Episode about magician was great too.
A brilliant episode indeed .. he really sunk his teeth into this one
Jim that was a brilliant choice of words.
Great pun
I also really like the episode with Leonard Nimoy
"A stitch in crime"👍
William Shatner (James T. Kirk) got equal time in "Fade in to Murder."
That's the only one where Colombo loses his cool Great episode!
Using the pockets of the pool table to present the evidence was a brilliant touch.
This episode was the first Columbo I ever watched, and it made me a life long Columbo fan.
Both Peter and Nicol Williamson where on top form with this... Both outstandingly played
I never get tired of watching Columbo.. Ive watched almost all episodes multiple times
I can’t get enough of LT Columbo. I could watch him 24/7
I heard Colombo reruns are still popular in europe . He is a very slick detective.
Europe, heck I own all the episodes and watch them regularly even on youtube!! The best detective show ever!! Peter Falk was a genius!!
Reruns have aired regularly in the US on Both Cozi & MeTV (Free OTA Digital Channels) on Saturday and Sunday respectively for ~5 years (if not longer)
Columbo is a firm regular fixture on weekend television here in Britain. Two channels share the broadcasting rights - 5USA and ITV3/ITV4.
07:59 😂😭😂😭😂😭😂 Love the way the music goes from dramatic to funny!
This is one episode of Columbo I vividly recall from childhood.
Me too!
No shooting no violence just brain and superb acting Peter falk is genius as Leut colombo he played the role superbly Today no actor can come closed to him In hungry there have a statue of colombo How there admire him A true legend
bro the way he put the clues all over the house so he could produce them at specific points was awesome
Columbo asks for something from higher-ups and they always grant it to him. Respect.
Absolute precision this scene, even the dogs sit in a orderly fashion, so good to watch , over and over.
From the episode "How to Dial a Murder," first broadcast Wednesday 5 April 1978. The antagonist (Scotch actor Nicol Williamson) played Marlin in "Excaliber" (1981).

This really shows off Peter Falk's brilliance as an actor. He's able to present his case with just a bit of passive aggression and subtext which is something he did a in a lot of Casavetes movies like mikey and Niki. He has the ability to appear one way, when he's really trying to convey something completely different. He even does this comedically in the In Laws where he seems crazy but you're never really sure.. Such a great talent
Nicol Williamson! Columbo really did get to spar with some incredible acting talents!
Columbo one of the all time greatest ❤️ I would never miss an episode back in the days ..
Hahhaha. That dogs scene on the pool table made me laugh hard. The kisses were too much 😅🤣I used to love binge watching Colombo during my maternity leave back in the days. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Since almost a month I was looking for this part of Rose Bud episode. Thanks for helping me to watch!
my dad was watching this yesterday and i noticed that super aesthetic phone that remained stuck in my mind til today. i found it thankss
This particular episode has stuck with me all the years.
I'M NEVER TIRED OF WATCHING COLUMBO, I LIKE HIS STYLE HOW TO CATCH A CRIMINAL, BRILLIANT !!!
Drinking game: take a shot every time Columbo says "sir."
Or "Ma'am."
Why do drinking games always end up with me in rehab?
I also really enjoyed where the dogs were trained to kill and Colombo changed the ,"word" from kill to ,"kiss".
SS. NY: Columbo was the only Detective of all Detectives. His style could never be repeated! He was a genius and I watched all his shows and reruns! Columbo was special!
It's so awesome to see how much Peter Falk is very beloved 😁👍
That's how Columbo worked. He lures the killer in with a false sense of security by complimenting them. "Oh I heard about you, you're very good at your work" or something like that and they're already caught in his web they don't even notice until the end.
Will be watching this soon enough my mother in law bought me the box set for Christmas so currently watching 2 episodes be day, great to keep the mind focused during lockdown... Great ending Colombo really enjoys the take down...
Nice mother in law
This is my first time seeing this episode. May be one of my all-time favorites. I love the way he outsmarted the smart guy and had so much pleasure doing it.
Thank you. It's the last ten minutes that are the best. Please keep it up.
I love these Columbo episodes, but does anybody remember Banacek with George Peppard?
He had near-impossible cases to solve as well!!
Also loved Banacek.
I do.
Yes, but the way they wrote the Banacek character was, at least to me, much less attractive. Rich, self-absorbed, narcissistic, flamboyant, "babe magnet." It was kind of the same formula used in "Burke's Law" with Gene Barry except that Amos Burke was, like Columbo, was an actual cop, while Banacek was a freelance insurance investigator. And Banacek's interaction with women really disturbed me. The writers felt compelled to exploit Peppard's boyish charms to a detrimental degree.
I found the Jim Rockford character in "The Rockford Files" a more appealing character than Banacek as far as stories about a private investigator.
Loved Banacek.
"Not that I'm particularly bright" 😂 what a brilliant way to start an insult,

Peter Falk was brilliant, and tv’s greatest detective.
