The 3rd episode of season 1, "Dead Weight" is starting now on Universal Crime. I'm off to bed though, so you'll have to enjoy Suzanne Pleshette and Eddie Albert without me. That's not really Falk's house, by the way. #Myth #Columbo acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2021/07/dead...

Every once in a while the question comes up of whether #Columbo really has a wife, or if she's just another story he tells suspects to put them off guard. Well...the evidence is overwhelming that she exists (at least as much as any TV character does). acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2021/03/is-c...

Just tuned into Universal Crime in time to catch the last few minutes of "Undercover". The remarkable thing is that until now "Undercover" was one of three episodes that had been left out of the rotation on Universal Crime, so now it may be the complete set! #Columbo

He was a much smoother, more understated, overtly capable, detective in Prescription Murder - the character wasn't fully developed yet. But we got hints, like at the end when the other detective has to hand him a pencil.

Starting now on Universal Crime channel: "How to Dial a Murder". One of the more grusome killings in the Columbo universe. And Ed Begley Jr's first of two appearances. acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/how-...

#Columbo was an early-career stop for a lot of people who went on to great fame. One of those was Martin Sheen, who played conniving chemist Karl Lessing in "Lovely But Lethal". He turns 86 years old today. acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2024/08/365-...

"Etude in Black" is just starting on Universal Crime. My #8 ranked episode. John Cassavetes does a nice job as the lecherous conductor (if you don't look too closely at his conducting). #Columbo acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2021/11/etud...

Happy birthday to Daniel McDonald, who played one of the more controversial antagonists in #Columbo. He was creepy, dark, crazy...and never actually killed anybody. In real life he dated Jennifer Aniston, and died of brain cancer at just 46 years of age. acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2026/07/365-...

For years the identity of the officious Tricon clerk from "An Exercise in Fatality" was unknown, but some determined fans eventually figured out that the actress was Ann Coleman. #Columbo Sadly, she apparently passed away 3 years ago today. acolumboblog.blogspot.com/2026/07/365-...

In this scene Columbo has Ward draw a circle on Columbo's back with chalk to show how the dress and the gunshot didn't line up. But in the previous scene we see the chalk circle already on Columbo's coat. 😳 Just a fun continuity error.
