For Columbo fans, "The Great Santini" tee

By Coop, at Threadless.

You think you're extremely online and then you learn Sesame Street had a detective named "Colambo" thirty years ago

Wiki:

He shares Columbo's "One more question" mannerism and often talks about his never-seen wife.

With the rise of Gen-Z, it's time for a new version of Friends!

I have just one tiny tweak that will bring this show into the modern era and make it a fun watch for EVERYONE: the Friends are constantly worried about the group of six exact doppelgangers who live one floor above.

It's normal for Columbo to act befuddled and impressed when the killer flexs their expertise. More rare and wonderful though is when the killer does something close to what Columbo does himself, usually sleight of hand or intense deductive reasoning, and he gets visibly delighted pic.twitter.com/YBxrWdowzG

Katey Sagal in Columbo

Katey Sagal in a COLUMBO episode her dad directed. In an old AVC Random Roles interview she told me he’d put her in small parts back then (at a time when she was more focused on her music career) so she’d be able to keep her health insurance. https://t.co/vtbYpx9tfI pic.twitter.com/tcdpTNpjIs

(Candidate for Crime)

Matthew Rhys talks about appearing as the villain on the last episode of Columbo

From a wide-ranging interview:

I was going to ask if you’re ever going to use your Welsh accent on television, but then I realized you did—playing the villain in the last-ever episode of Columbo. Did you know it was going to be the last going in?

No, no, we didn't at all. And that was a crushing moment for me because I always pride myself on working hard at dialect and accents. And Peter Falk, said “I want [your character] to be a Cockney from London.” So I worked on my Cockney accent. And he picked me up at LAX—Peter Falk picked me up when I landed at LAX. Unbelievable. In his Range Rover. Walked into arrivals. It still blows me away.

Nice.

Then he goes, "I want to rehearse right now." I was like, "Oh! Okay." So we drove to Universal, we drove to his office, and we're rehearsing for a few minutes and I'm giving my best London Cockney that I've worked on. And he went [Peter Falk accent] "Where are you from?" And I said, "Oh, I'm from a place called Cardiff in Wales." He said, [Peter Falk accent] "Why don't you play him as a guy from Cardiff in Wales." And I was like, “Oh my God, Peter Falk just destroyed my Cockney accent.” So it was kind of a crushing moment for me, but yes, I did get to use my own native accent in the last-ever Columbo.

The 100 greatest Columbo scenes of the 70's

All posted here.

(My favorite scene is Columbo getting a massage from the murderer in Make Me a Perfect Murder. And my favorite moment is in Fade in to Murder, when an officer describes the suspect as being the same height as Columbo, and Columbo responds, "average height.")

Do you know Columbo's first name? Or do you only think you do because you fell for a failed copyright trap?

True story: the other night we’re playing an old Trivial Pursuit set, and I get the question “what was Columbo’s first name?” I’ve been binging Columbo for the past six months, and I have NO idea, and it drives me nuts. The card says the answer is “Phillip” and I lose the turn.
