TV is pretty much hopeless in my opinion - a waste of time.

I absolutely love Columbo, from the scriptwriting to Peter Falk's humble character. It's television at it's finest. I can't remember a bad episode.

Supposedly, the Columbo character was based on Chesterton's Father Brown character. That may be true, but Columbo is much more.

I hope the final episode of Colombo makes it to television!!

That being said, Colombo should at least be the Head of the Homicide Division if not the Chief of Police after 40 years of successful detective work!!

The networks are run by absolute idiots. Who do they think is watching all those old shows on TV Land and the Game Show Channel but younger viewers hungry for decent entertainment? Conan O'Brien is considered a hip icon of younger viewers, and one of his biggest thrills was landing Peter Falk as a guest because he worships "Columbo."

I'm nowhere near retirement age, and my wife and I both love "Columbo." In fact, our wedding anniversary was last week, and one of her gifts to me was a box set of DVDs of the 5th season. We fired up the video projector and watched one on the big screen, and it was GREAT! It's no wonder network TV ratings are going down the toilet.
