Any "Columbo" fans here?

[XanaDUer2]

I'm watching for free on TUBI, with commercials. I absolutely adore Columbo. Even though you know who the killer is. Many of the guest stars were Falk's friends, and many were famous stars back in the day

1. Yup. He's so cute 🥰

2. The list of "villains" is like James Bond's.

Some are pretty ludicrous, though.

The one scene I can't unsee is (IIRC) Dabney Colman (or a facsimile thereof) at a traffic light with a camera, creating an alibi.

But what the heck, I'm a photographer and I notice little details.

Calling all Peugeot fans! All both of you.

Sacre Bleu. Quel merde.

3. Columbo, brilliantly played by Falk, shows how an honest and keen-eyed

investigator can prove that the privileged, rich, greedy and mainly white prime suspects can't and shouldn't get away with murder!
It feels so relevant to what's happening these days.

6. Good points

Never thought of it that way

11. Keen-eyed. I caught that.

4. Have always loved him.

His quirks made him so enjoyable.

[Silent Type]

5. Loved Colombo got the perp with one last question. And his Peugeot 403 and dog were classics.

7. They were wonderful.

That it's a howdunit rather than a whodunit adds tension to soft-boiled Columbo's unraveling of so many "perfect" murders.

The guest stars are a parade of fine actors.

A nice twist on detective stories.

8. My dad loved him, so I like him too. How long are the Tubi commercials?

[XanaDUer2]

9. Not long at all

It doesn't seem they are cutting the show to fit in commercials

10. "Just one more ting."

That was when you knew that Columbo was about to drop the hammer on someone. I used to watch it all the time back in the day. And yes, he had a nice 'who's who' of guests on there.

12. He plays himself in Wings of Desire.

He's in Germany for an acting gig and he has the ability to sense the presence of angels, having been one himself. The kids yell "Hey! Columbo!" when they see him on the street.

13. I liked Columbo. I still love watching the old shows.

Pluto is another great app for free old shows too.

[XanaDUer2]

17. Interesting! Nt

[ChazII]

18. I have just started to watch it

even though I was in middle and high school when the episodes first aired. I am really enjoying it.

[XanaDUer2]

19. I'm so glad

My mom loved mysteries but not Columbo bc you knew who the killer was right away. So we didn't watch it in the 70s. I watch it free now on TUBI. it has all the episodes and newer movies.

[ChazII]

20. I like how we know who did it and

watching how Columbo ensnares the bad guy makes it enjoyable for me.

[XanaDUer2]

21. Me, too nt
