{YTP} ~ Klumbo

Klumbo is a hard-boiled renegade cop who lives on the edge, plays by his own rules, and doesn't answer to anybody. Or something like that, I wasn't really paying attention.

The fact that Columbo’s dog is genuinely canonically named simply “Dog” makes the dog section even funnier than it already is

[@hansonel]

"This dog is a dog." Klumbo is the greatest detective ever.

[@pyglik2296]

"You see the man? He's not a dog!" Amazing observation skills.

The _moment_ I heard muppets Columbo say "the jerk circus" I knew he would be saying "the jerkus" at some point

[@WillCWilson]

That scene was from the 1981 theatrical film, "The Great Muppet Caper".

[@MrBeardsley]

“That jerk Bernie, he went and joined Journey” killed me

[@doodlebug7]

The bit where Columbo says "Look what I got here" and then spends a full 30 seconds searching his pockets made me wheeze so hard it hurt

[@thehorridprofessor2039]

then they say "you're searching but you'll never find it" and that's when they find it and when they get it out what is it? "glasses, they're glass. wow. put your finger on it" "no, i never liked them" "oh, sorry sir"

[@thehorridprofessor2039]

another honorable mention is when columbo (being the detective) says lipstick is sludge, but this guy already knows, because hes the one that told him

[@demoonmunkay]

I expected him to pull out and say “Book”

I know this is tres silly and is a _premium poop_ but I am so pleasantly distracted by the source material's cinematography - like this is genuinely gorgeous, there are so many low-aperture shots and the backgrounds all have this dreamy out-of-focus softness that make the actors really pop. This is one of the most charmingly, unexpectedly pretty poops I have ever seen - a quaint oddity. Love it

I just watched this episode last night and I just wanna say the sequence from 0:20-0:27 is just about word for word how it happened in the episode. They're just bantering back and forth on puzzles and uncles and I chortled out loud when I saw it happen. Great episode btw, I recommend it.
