///It brings me great joy that today I will be sharing one of my favorite Columbo shitposts, made by Gianni Matragrano. Though now that I share this to people, I wonder what the ace attorney equivalent to the Columbo dimension is.

The murderer tells the victim's attorney to talk to the victim's ex-wife "like a Dutch uncle".

What the fuck does that mean?!

Dictionary.com to the rescue. (Wikipedia alternate) Apparently talk to her harshly?

you keep posting about columbo. do i need to watch it would u recommend?

first of all sorry for answering more than a week later... i had a feeling if i just keep on columboposting all alone eventually someone will be like what's going on.. my brain's been like THE KLUMBO!! every day most days for a while now so bear with me for a moment

my answer to "do you recommend x" is always that i can tell you about it, say what i like about it and what's possibly not to like so you can better evaluate whether it's something you would enjoy, yeah? 😳 like in the end it's either for you or it isn't and only you can find out. you know what i mean

um so columbo, the episodes are feature-length self-contained murder mysteries, if you wanted to you could start anywhere. and they aren't exactly mysteries because the concept is that you watch the murder happen and then the clues that lead to the arrest are uncovered gradually and the lieutenant and the killer dance around each other until the latter incriminates themself. usually because they underestimated columbo because he's a shabby little guy and appears to be sort of a bumbling idiot but is actually incredibly perceptive and sharp-witted, and he knows how the (usually rich) self-important murderers see him and uses that against them, as well as his compassion and intuition. that's pretty much it, it's a reverse whodunnit

i think (and it may be obvious) that the appeal of the show other than the crime/mystery is columbo, if you like him that could possibly be the thing that makes you continue watching. so i'll tell you that he doesn't carry a gun, can't stand the sight of blood, or high places, loves his wife. and his dog. simple guy, shrewd though. same rumpled coat and shitty little peugeot convertible all the time. he's very socratic in his methods, non-violent, and i think that's what really attracted me to this show. i enjoy the masculinity without the usual baggage, without the arrogance and the domineering and the posturing, if that makes sense lol.. plus i think peter falk's performance is wonderfully human, stephen fry said this once in an interview if i remember correctly: there's a certain warmth to it. columbo's a humble, virtuous character, yeah he's disheveled, a little all over the place but he understands people and is endlessly curious and dedicated and that's how he wins. and i like that and i think he's a bit of an unusual character because we're far from the macho tough guy cops who intimidate and coerce and threaten And from the trope of the egotistical superhuman genius detective.. he's a little guy c'maahn he's just a little guyy (it's not about him though viewers aren't even supposed to know his first name and it's hard to tell when he's bluffing and his private life is never the focus. so, a mysterious little guy)

TLDR: yes i recommend it if you like mysteries and would enjoy a crime drama with moments of silliness or would appreciate the unconventional masculinity (for his time definitely) i see in this character, and no i don't recommend it if you'd rather watch things that are short and snappy or if you strongly prefer an overarching plot or if you hate the look and feel of the 70s or if you don't like peter falk's whole deal and especially not if your pet peeve is talking in circles. oh and there are some moments and aspects of episodes that didn't age well but they're very few and far between imo. just wanted to mention that, i know nothing is perfect ofc<3

so yeah i do recommend it because i love it, thank you for asking !! :)

#i had this whole thing where i rambled about which episodes are probably best to start with but i'm just gonna say‚ start with murder by #the book (first episode but not the pilot) or double exposure or suitable for framing. opinions vary on many episodes but i think these are #generally loved. also negative reaction has a killer that didn't interest me but it's great for getting to know columbo #but there are many articles and posts with opinions about which episodes are the best and which are good to start with #articles about why people watch/love columbo too. like if you didn't trust me and wanted different sources hdshvy #ask #columbo

Peter Falk, Don Ameche, Kim Hunter, and Ross Martin in  Columbo (1971) Suitable for Framing

S1E4

Lt. Columbo investigates the murder of Rudy Matthews, an art collector found shot to death in his home. The killer is the dead man's nephew, art critic Dale Kingston, who, with the help of his accomplice Tracy O'Connor, effectively masks the time of death to give himself an alibi at an art exhibit. From the outset, Columbo can't quite understand why the thief would have first selected a painting of lesser value before suddenly switching to the two most valuable paintings after the killing. Kingston tries to point Columbo in the direction of his aunt, Matthews' ex-wife Edna. The fact that Matthews left his entire art collection to her seems to support that idea. Columbo isn't buying it and sets a clever trap for him.

Started watching Columbo and wouahhh

God the rising tension everytime Columbo says "oh one more thing" and then youre oh shit hes gonna call the killer out! "Oh nevermind" it was a fake out!!!

They happen like 3 times and it's so nerve wracking I just watched the ep with the art collector and the ending when the guy freaks out like wrow

Columbo really annoying the shit out of these guys like "I'm not touching you" "he's touching me!" "I'm not touching you"

Also also everytime someone's like "ohoho I'll use my connections to get Columbo pulled off the case or block him someway" but then that just seals their fate like "oh someone's trying to pull strings to get Columbo away again, we gottem, time to set the trap"

Sorry it's just kept seeing u post about it got me interested when I saw it was free on Tubi and wow irl heart palpitations dude

I know right!? It's just so interesting! Like genuinely interesting!

Part of it is having fun watching Peter Falk be Blorbo, part of it is knowing exactly who did it and how and watching Columbo unravel, and the gotchas! I have screamed NO WAY out loud at a couple of them they're so exciting!

Suitable for Framing (the art dealer one) is such a good episode. It was the episode my dad remembered 30 years after watching it on TV. I can recc you a few of my other favorites!

Etude in Black, A Stitch in Crime, Double Shock, Negative Reaction, Troubled Waters, Now You See Him, Forgotten Lady, Try and Catch Me and the Conspirators.

I would love to do a Columbo watch party some day with anyone interested!!!

The murderer refers to a woman who was married to his uncle (they divorced) as aunt.

I think about this a lot, as someone who has several uncles/aunts (the siblings of my mom) who married and divorced.

Honestly, I think it depends on how you personally feel about that person that was married to your blood relative.
