If you grew up in a communist country and only had a fleeting glance at western tv of the time…: you might.
Awesome story, no wonder he’s the Romanian David Hasselhoff.
It was a great show, I watched every episode, can't bare to watch it today, feel the same way about I Love Lucy. Don't know why I feel that way but I do.
That one I can still watch again, hilarious, still have a copy.
Loved all the shows with Patrick McGoohan, who was not well known in the US then but huge in the UK. His real life daughter also appeared.
Far from my favorite episode, but William Shatner as a radio talk show host, which I always figured was a veiled imitation of Rush.
Not a great movie but Falk was pretty good in “Vibes ( 1988 )”
Starred Cyndi Lauper and Jeff Goldblum. Used to be available on You Tube but not anymore.
Also liked Vera Miles in the episode she starred in, "Lovely but Lethal".
His wife was terrible to his children as he neared the end of his life, though. His daughter lobbies for state laws giving children rights to visit incapacitated parents and receive timely information about their health condition and living arrangements.
Thanks for settling that! They do bear some resemblence to one another. But not as much as I thought.
I like most of the episodes. Jack Cassidy was a great bad guy. The shows I remember most were:
1. Ruth Gordon plays a mystery writer who kills her niece’s widower because she believe he killed her niece.
2. Vera Miles owns a cosmetics company and she kills an employee and ex-boyfriend (Martin Sheen!) who has stolen a valuable anti-aging formula and is holding it for ransom.
3. Tyne Daley kills her husband and her husband’s bum nephew and takes over the husband’s pro football franchise.
4. Helen Shaver plans to kills Colombo and his wife because she blames Colombo for her husband’s death.
5. Matthew Rhys-Davis kills a blackmailer who is threatening his actress girlfriend (she killed an ex in self defense and the blackmailer witnessed it) and his new nightclub.
6. A trophy wife and her forensic investigator boyfriend (who works with Colombo) murder her husband’s business rival and try to frame the husband for the murder.
The writers should have come up with a guest starring role for Bette Davis. The imperious Bette sparring with the annoyingly persistent Colombo would have been great.
He can do a lot it seems, also off topic just came back from Romania, loved it, meet people and traveled around Bucharest and up north, and Romania (mostly bucharest) is more diverse than I realized, I look forward to going back in 2 weeks.
enjoy.
Probably best known from Schindler's List, as the architect who got shot for suggesting the foundation had to be torn down.
I’ve heard there are some nice Black Sea resorts in Romania.
What’s the first rule about Fight Club?!?
Lol! “Now, how did that happen? Did she do it herself on purpose?”
Is what the guests are asking.
I have all of them I think.
There were a lot of NBC mystery movie shows that didn’t go far that I’d like to see released. Fat chance.
Wondet why he didn’t mention William Shatner.
Uh Detective?
