However, it has increased in popularity as of late (which has upset a lot of people from what I can find on the internet for some reason). So, unless you're over 500 years old, there is no possible way to claim *gift-as-a-verb* is new.

Add William Shatner to the list. I first saw him in a small role in "Judgement at Nurenberg" then in an episode of "The Nurses". Then there's Peter Falk himself who first was a stage actor who excelled in comedic scenes in "Columbo" but more notably, "The Inlaws"--perhaps, after Columbo his most memorable film.

Conclusion is: after the court verdict don't let Colombo on your property without a warrant

[@andredarin8966]

The first question a potential murderer should have asked in L.A. was, "Which detective will be assigned the case?" Columbo had so many "high-profile cases--actors, actresses, a conductor, a general...the list is large--he had to have been cited in numerous news stories. If someone said, "You'll probably draw the little guy in the raincoat who carries around a cigar.", I'd let bygones be bygones and move on with my life.

[@awclark3]

It was a Coroner's inquest, is not the same as a legal trial. It has many of the same protocols, but doesn't argue guilt or innocents. New evidence can cause them to be over turned and refined as a murder. As far as a man like Columbo, it's the fact he looks and acts stupid until he has you under arrest.

[@mya200014]

lol....but knowing columbo he would still manage. It's almost lame how he zeroes in on the right person from the start in 99% of the episodes

[@philsurtees]

I don't think it wasn't a court verdict, I think it was a coronial verdict, but ... yes ... your advice is sound, though should be expanded upon to be, *DO NOT COME WITHIN 100 YARDS OF COLUMBO WITHOUT AN ATORNEY!* Even then you're probably still toast though!? 😉

[@philsurtees]

@@mya200014 There's one where a food critic has dinner with a chef and murders him by putting fugu poison in a bottle opener. At the end, after he's been caught, the critic asks Columbo when he was onto him. Columbo answers by saying, well, after we called you to say that the person you ate dinner with had been poisoned, and was dead, you didn't go to the hospital, you came to see me straight away.

[@lewisner]

For anyone wondering about the "double jeopardy" problem I found this quote from someone on Columbophile "Double jeopardy only applies if you are formally charged with a crime. While the results of an inquest can lead to a murder charge, just because the results don’t indicate that charges should be brought the DA can still charge someone cleared in an inquest. I recently re-watched this show and she was never formally charged."

[@AC3HT]

IMO, I think it's the extraordinary self-confidence of the criminals' behavior, while interacting with Lt. Columbo, that makes Columbo suspect them all the more. 👮🔍🚓

[@Bikewithlove]

Columbo is a lot like PG Wodehouse’s character Reginald Jeeves - he has already worked out the crime before the investigation starts. His objective is to get a solid prosecution so he plays his cards close to his chest and even plays dumb to catch the suspect off balance as he’s closing in on them.

[@Michaeljefferson9000]

That's definitely a part of it. A suspect that is all too eager to offer convenient explanations as to why some strange behavior occurred is all the more suspicious for it, especially when those explanations contradict the more logical explanation Columbo is leading them to.

I had a craving to watch this episode after these clips were posted. This is an excellent early Columbo. Leslie Nielsen is great, and Susan Clark is beautiful. She carries off a very sophisticated character that isn't overly haughty. And of course, like all Columbo epiodes, the true joy comes not from seeing the opening murder and who commits it, but rather from seeing how Columbo wears down the murderer by bringing up every last inconsistency and brining him or her to justice in his systematic way. Thank you for posting this.

I like the subtle subtext of the interplay between Susan Clark's character Beth and Columbo. It's almost as though this was the unstated dialogue: Beth: I'm sorry, Lt. Columbo, but I've committed the perfect crime and I'm giving you this yellow rose as a consolation prize. Columbo: Well, I'm sorry too, Mamm. But I'm just not big on consolation prizes. I'm having a lot of problems with you and your story. You don't show any remorse, sadness, or even regret for killing your brother, even if this was a purported "accident." And I'm troubled by your sudden power grab at the family business now that your brother is conveniently out of the way. And then you suddenly go out and buy a brand new car as though to celebrate your inquest victory. I could go on, but am I boring you? Beth: Oh no, not at all. I find you amusing, Lt. Columbo. But I don't want you investigating me further, especially since I'm guilty. So, if you don't stop, I'm going to get your superiors to put pressure on you to stop your questioning. Columbo: Oh, I see. I guess I've touched a nerve. Well, I'll be leaving now. But I'll be seeing more of you later. Beth: I should hope not. Columbo: Don't count on it, Mamm. Don't count on it.

She had a credited role in another Columbo episode, "Murder by the Book." This was also the last role for Jessie Royce Landis ("Mrs. Chadwick") before she died a year after production of this episode at 75 years of age. Her career spanned 40 years and included working with Alfred Hitchcock in "North By Northwest" twelve years earlier. Speaking of Hitchcock, this Columbo episode was directed by Norman Lloyd, a life-long collaborator of Hitchcock's. The beautiful Susan Clark ("Beth Chadwick") was 27 years old here.

Jon Lormer finally got a decent part as the judge; in Star Trek, he kept getting killed off by computers, if he actually even existed at all! 😂

Ahhhhhhhh, the 70's --------and bell bottom pants ! Susan Clark looked VERY, VERY good in therm. ----------I remember seeing this, with Dad. he & I LOVED Peter Falk, & we loved Columbo. Susan Clark has no idea Columbo is weaving his trap for this murderess. She, like all the others, has no idea just how smart Columbo is. ---------------MJL< 76 y/o

"michaellazzeri2069," . . . And for sure back then Susan Clark has a pretty good idea that GOOD, very fetching look in those TIGHT brown pants had quite the impact on the male audience -- you, your dad and all generations.

It was always their behavior and mannerisms that gave them away

Please upload full episodes There are hard to find Thank you

[@ScottCheatham]

There used to be an entire channel here with all the episodes. Then, Peacock decided to take it down and make you pay to stream them on their app. :(

[@PuffKitty]

It's on Tubi right now, you just have to sit thru 60 sec ad breaks. They seem more tolerable than the ads on Peacock and Amazon

[@alcoholfree6381]

You cannot fool Colombo! He can tell a murderer when he sees one. Once he gets his teeth into your tailcoats you’re toast if you’re guilty! I’ve watched all of his adventures several times. It’s too bad that they couldn’t develop more adventures for him to play in, he didn’t do more shows because he wouldn’t do poor quality shows. Very entertaining for me.

[@therealgreatqball]

Falk was suffering from some mental stuff that inevitably caused his death in 2003.

[@juerv1]

Peter Falk was 76 years old when he quit as Columbo. And that was right. It simply wouldn't be credible if an 80-year-old had suddenly appeared as an inspector.

[@mikesanders8621]

I don't know who that actress is but she makes me feel 20 years old again. I remember feeling emotions like lust and joy and homicidal rage. Who can forget the homicidal rage? Certainly not my victims.

[@salmanedy]

The title of the video describes the show in a nutshell.

[@TheGenTatsu]

I can't unsee Susan Clark looking like Courtney Cox from Friends. Strikingly similar features all around.

[@dunngyllite7883]

I am mildly surprised that Drebin didn't turn the courtroom into a desaster area in less than a minute...

[@williammacdonald9271]

Colombo is always the same, he looks at who benefits the most from the death.

[@EdEditz]

Imagine being guilty and being questioned by Columbo. All those 'just one more thing' things would get to my nerves. I'd confess just to get some peace of mind LOL ^___^

[@master-kq3nw]

Great episode

[@InevitableTruthTeller]

Susan Clark must be some kind of actor. She made me hate her so much that I wanted her caught more than any other murderer in the history of the show. Wardrobe really helped with this, as did the script.

5:00 today IS Thursday! 😳 *Greatest detective EVER!!*

The shot then the alarm!

[@timlamb6196]

The trial is over, the case is over. He by now would be assigned another case and if he used the departments time and money to take it upon himself to bother this woman it would be illegal on his behalf and could be charged with harassment, trespassing, and going against the departments rules amongst other charges that might be brought up against him which would lead to a suspension or maybe even getting fired. Nevermind the department possibly getting sued and maybe getting bad press. In reality this would not happen.

[@Mustang-bk4ns]

In reality bud, there was no trial. It was a coroner hearing. It could have led to an arrest and trial.

[@petrolbeatsev6308]

Not sure he had been assigned the case prior to the inquest, but irrespective of the inquest verdict if the Police suspect foul play they should follow up. It's only fiction but it ultimately was the right thing to do as she was guilty.

[@joekinnn1703]

What an actress!

[@JohnnyAFG81]

Whoever painted that Ferrari is the real criminal.

[@arthuralford]

I believe that was a factory color

[@lisawilliams2013]

Looks like a toy car color. Gah!!
