Fun fact: in an early episode he flashed an ID card that said his first name was Frank. Frank Columbo.
ScoreQuest
I think that name fits perfectly

Yesterday I learned that Peter Falk had his right eye removed when he was 3 and wore a glass eye for most of his life. I had never noticed.
hotrats
That's why he hardly ever looks sideways, and shades his glass eye when he does.
Ssssssssssss
Columbo. I wish I was interested in shows when you were on TV.

EYE see what he did there.. Y'know 'cause his eye is, well, I mean.. Forget it.
frjackhackett
columbo had two working eyes, it was peter falk who had the glass eye
Brown? Hazel? Oh... (clink, clink) oh right.
RaymondJCanterJr
So good. One of the many shows my Grandma introduced me to! Along with Dark Shadows, Forever Knight, and Kojack.
GarageQueen
Rockford Files, too. I watched Columbo and Rockford religiously as a youngster.
Locolarue
Forever Knight! Yes!
saucefordipping29
Columbo is seriously a good show.

ihatethetv
That guy played a great friendly grandpa in The Princess Bride
koalascanevolvetoo
TIL my dad is Columbo
mynameisdougandiloveyou
Me with my dog. I love her solo much
bluecardinal
Columbo is humility personified.
gr8snd
Columbo was my father's favorite.
MarvelousMuggle
Mine too. This and Remington Steele
Thing is Remington Steele was almost 20 years later! Columbo was part of a very cool mystery series. 4 different detectives.
Therearetoomanyusernames
My mom's too. Him, Murder, She Wrote and The Commish. I was the weird kid who loved watching serious, grown up mystery shows. lol
Me too
People don't understand why I love shows like Bones and Law & Order so much now. Haha
MaximumRadius
The. Most annoying character. Ever. Why did no one think to complain of him harassing them?
hotdogg
Thought he would strangle the dog in the last picture, since he held around the neck in the pic before
Rial
He named his dog Dog, by the way.
Iknowhowrubberbandsaremade
My first dog was named Dawg. Also, I have two cats named Two and Three.
jigslinger
Thought this was dr Kelso from scrubs for a minute there.
cmdshift3
Big Jake did it first... Or at least before Columbo.
TheX23
my husband named our first two cats. boy cat and girl cat. lol i bet if we had only one. it would have been just cat
whatbuttondoipush
Named my cats "fuck you kitty" and "shitty kitty" R.I.P. Shitty (fell off roof and broke her back)
DickPicEnthusiast
Fuck you kitty, shitty kitty, little ball of fur... Sorry for your loss.
FuckYouImSokka
Theres no mystery why he named him that
Treblaine
I don't see why not, it's not like he has several dogs and names each of them "Dog".
measterl
uses password as password too
Gaarwaronja
My cat is named Kitty. Best name ever!
Sororita
That's like naming your pikachu "pikachu"... Oh wait...
AlCapwn262
My uncle used to raise dogs for bear hunting, and once named an entire litter of pups "C'MERE!"
SlightlyDodgy
Deefer.... Deefer dog
mzxrules
my grandma named her cat "Boy"
My old neighbour named their cat pisshead.
tomasztyka
I enjoy this show... I'm only 27 but new shows just don't click too well for me.
drafman
It's the best detective show ever made.
Can't argue that.
secretoaster
Omg, this is the single greatest thing here. Columbo with a Beagle.
Feralkyn
Basset hound!
Yeh, that!
Or a blood hound. Someone help me, I'm too... uh... happy right now to see what that dog is.
TurkTurkelton
Bloodhounds are brown.
Medwards86
Love basset hounds!

the Columbo series never got the credit it deserved. great show!
His4Harold
maybe it did, back in the day..
HitlersMother
All the episodes were the same
Spidey209
You are right. It was shit. About as bad as Vince D"Onofiro leaning sideways to get a confession.
isn't that the case for almost all series?
NegimaSensei
Please tell me the series gets better after the 1st episode. I gave it a go but couldn't stand the slow 20 minute pacing of the murder.
randolphjcarter
That's old television for you. Takes some getting used to if you didn't grow up with it.
I'm in my 30s so yes, I have grown up with these sorts of shows and even love some of the ones that I used to pass on when I was little.
well, the pace is slow most of the time. but Columbo himself has something unique. I like watch him solve the case.
Actually, I'll ask this instead. What would be a good episode to jump back in to? I do feel like giving it another chance.
Well... can you answer this for me then? Does every episode spend a large chunk of time showing the murder or was that just the pilot?
thank you for waiting. picked some for you. like episode 21, Double Exposure, or #42, Murder Under Glass, or #54, Uneasy Lies The Crown(!)
Thanks! I'll be sure to check these out on Netflix. Thanks again for the suggestions.
Veit
...what? It ran for 10 seasons, won 13 Emmys and 2 Golden Globes, and still makes lists for best characters or writing. It gets the credit.
ArtArchive
But Peter Falk wasn't appointed president for life or something like that.
WhyMePenn
Dont break his little bubble
Kanye West won how many Grammies? he's still an overrated "artist". clown.
TanstaaflTovarisch
Wait, first you say that it doesn't get credit, then when it's pointed out that it go plenty of credit you call it overrated? Wat?
got*
no no, haha, k.west is overrated. Columbo is underrated. my point is awards don't mean anything.
TheSteenalizer
It's not underrated though, it's highly praised
