i love this series. peter falk really found a home in the character.

it had this interesting schtick where the murder is quite obvious, often occurring during the opening credits. the guest star of the week attempting to pull of some perfect murder and then columbo seemingly stumbling around them attempting to solve it.

each episode wasnt about who did it, or how they did it… it was all about the mistake made that would lead columbo to the truth

columbo deserves a reboot, or at least something columbo-like. are there any shows with a similar format?

anyone have any fond memories of columbo?

    Honestly this is one of my favorite shows ever, I think my grandma introduced it to me one day when she visited. Peter falk is just so charming. I should really watch it again if I can find it

    For a while I would watch an episode before bed until I had seen everything. There’s no way to really reboot Columbo, but some spiritual successor could be good.
