This is one of 2 episodes that were loosely adapted from crime novels (the other is "No Time To Die").

Yes, indeed! no other actor could play this role and no one ever will . . . No need for a remake, what the plans to that may be!

@@MrRichulan oh the thought of a remake makes me shudder. Noooooo!! I agree with you. Some things should never ever be messed around with. No one can hold a candle to Peter Falk....!! I'm in the mood for some Chilli now! Winter here...it be perfect! 😂

@@MrRichulan i shall bear that in mind. Colombo and his culinary tips!! He was a one off....😊.

@@kerryann2041 Nice how he was cooking with the vilain in "Murder under glass". And in that episode he met several chiefs with their specialities!

@@Rotseer yeah , you're probably right

@@mikeyates7931 probably? man, there’s 100% a rat in your life you haven’t identified yet I think a guy gets his heart broken once and decides “WOMEM BAD”

That life...

bless her nasty smelly little ass.

There probably was no print (he’s caught several by tricking them into confessing).

Keep in mind that what she's said is not admissible unless she's been Mirandized. She has to be advised of her rights against self-incrimination and cautioned not to speak without her attorney present. Also, I highly doubt cops are going to get a clean print off a coin that's dropped into a meter. There has to be at least "12 points in common" but usually that's not enough. It should be closer to 20. Since the coin with the print on it almost certainly was underneath other coins, the other coins rubbing against it would have obliterated most of the loops and swirls.

@@LeonAllanDavis It's a dramatized TV show. Most of the viewers know that it's not exact reality and many will know that a lot of detective work is very mundane. However, despite the lack of absolute reality , we still enjoy these episodes tremendously as evidenced by over 3 million views of all the videos after 40 years since their creation. What is the purpose of your post?

@@droceretik The purpose of of my post is, "don't insult my intelligence". This was a lousy episode with lousy directing; lousy writing; bad lighting and editing; and characters acting out of character. Here's the Columbo formula all scripts had to follow: - Someone cleverly plans and executes a murder - The victim had it coming - The murderer is a sympathetic character - Columbo spots the murderer within the first minute on the scene - The balance of the episode is a cat and mouse game between detective and criminal This episode violated the Columbo formula... The murder wasn't especially clever The victim didn't have it coming The murderer wasn't a sympathetic character There was no cat and mouse between Columbo and the murderer... On top of everything else, a child of ten could have figured this one out... There were only eight people in the offices. They could all be easily eliminated as suspects - except for the dead guy, and the woman... The woman didn't have an alibi and the corpse didn't need one... Case solved in less than five minutes...

true that

that coin could have changed hands many times. Someone with gloves could have also put that coin into the machine. So no other coins had fingerprints? This was silly and hardly solid evidence.

@@michaelwainscott2633 Columbia writing went downhill after season 7

@@no7mac Did they really need to bring in the actual parking meter or the coins? So stupid.

@@michaelwainscott2633 it could also very well be just a ploy by Columbo to get her to admit that the alibi was false. Still silly to get the meter to the station

I thought asking her for those gumdrops was the biggest. 😂😂😂

I think it has to do with the idea that if you get someone to give you something small, then later they are more willing to give you big or bigger things... like a confession. That's why sales people hand you stuff...

😂😂😂

The guard was a chicken thief on another TV series.

And they want to get rid of coins and bills, when they worked so great to catch criminals both here and for Jack Reacher.

Love the way he dropped the coins on the table with contempt 😂

Is it even possible to lift a print off a coin? Looking at the building, it seems like there wouldn't be too many people parking there on Saturday, meter or not.

@@sandal_thong8631 You can lift prints off of human skin so a coin is doable.

Columbo is absolutely s classic, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that he is more enjoyable the farther you go back. Now, if said new episodes were period pieces, set in the 70s, I think they could be enjoyable, but then you’d have modern writers who didn’t live through that era trying to write dialog that fit the time. That’s a tall order

I think Kevin Pollack could do and excellent job of playing Columbo if they were to bring it back. His impression of him is spot on.

@@mrwp819300in the later series, Falk played Colombo, but in the first series he WAS Colombo.

It makes you wonder if he did that at all. Like in the episode where he went to London, he put a pearl in an umbrella to make someone admit that they murdered their friend.

@@tinkernoggin3667 Yea the coin was a bluff, no prints on the coin.

Only the last so many though.

Cops love bluffs, specially when the suspect is foolish enough to accept being interrogated without a lawyer.

I wonder how many criminals Columbo sent away are still alive in jail

I love how she looked through the second half.

I always lived him on the Waltons too. Very good actor

Very Pretty 😮❤

Why would they be there. That's not either of their's place.

@@romulusnr They were going out to eat. The meters were at a restaurant.

Yes, sure, just say that he inserted the coins after 6Pm because he was not paying attention.

This is why you need a lawyer. I suspect Mr. Chavis is a lawyer 🙂

Columbo have no fingerprint on the coin. That's the trick!

I've never seen that bit in his act but I wish I could've seen it.

hahaha I thought that too!

Absolutely!

Pancake makeup

Great acting. The Columbo episodes were mini plays, and all the actors took their roles very seriously.

She's a proof of God's existence. Who is she?

@@jlucdalmasso Kristin Bauer van Straten. IMDB is your friend.

I assume you mean image quality.

Columbo was recorded on film, so it's possible to remaster to high definition.

The later episodes are much better quality (from the 1990s onwards).

I recall reading that Colombo was shot on film, that would explain the excellent picture quality, which wouldn't be possible if it was filmed on 35mm. Even season 1 looks good on HD TV. EDIT: Oh, I see you were agreeing with me, my brain thought you were arguing with me, I missed the "Yep" Sorry.

@Pete Melon Oh right! OK just.ignore me then. I'm am idiot.

“Oh, Mr. Montana, just one more thing... this white powder on your desk, what is that? Mrs. Columbo has a few recipes with some sugar in in - not much, of course, don’t want to gain weight - but this seems like an awful lot for whatever you were baking...”

And Telly Savalas as Kojak. Larry Hagman as JR. And the one one who did Baretta... Forgot his name now though... (I know he went to jail in real life but he was a great actor)

Peter Sellers as chief inspector Jacques Clouseau

I'm pretty sure there are a lot of others... Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock Sean Connery as James Bond Robert Shaw as Quint Tim Curry as Frank N Furter Robert Deniro as Travis Bickle......

Lol !!

I only seem to hear that at the end of the video, not during it. Maybe he says that earlier in the episode?

attention to detail, you probably are a detective :-)

Ed Begley Jr. was in my absolute favorite Dark Comedy "Eating Raoul" He is only in one scene but, it is a memorable scene......... If you don't know his dad, look him up. He was a great character actor. Look up "12 Angry Men" 1957, he gives an amazing performance as a terrible bigot who wakes up.

Yes , for a Man with no discernable Talent he had quite a good career

ALWAYS!!!!

Good eye...I should mention that he was the MVP actor of the old film She-Devil, Meryl Streep's first stab at comedy and Roseanne's first big screen appearance.

Hey

I'm watching that one again after this one.👏👏👏👍😎💓

Oh yeah, I remember Johnny crashing that plane!

Voodo Chile is hotter.

Lois Chiles.

He needed her to testify to strengthen the case.

And what a beautiful canary she makes.

@@Bersztipflag Yes. And she sang beautifully.

LOL

There's nothing mean about exposing lies.

@BuddyNovinski, exactly. You are right. That's why it's funny. The exact opposite is true. He was saving her from prison by letting her know that she was lying for someone who had already been placed at the murder site by fingerprints, so she needed to rethink her loyalty. Actually it was a kindness to her.

He should be ashamed of himself!

Wow, don't tell me you believe is real, this just a good writer, good production and specially an excellent and talented actor, you been watching to much trash on TV, or the movies.👎😟🦄

I've just been watching him on an old episode of Match Game

Not sure, but he rarely ever has a traditional interrogation like this one.

It's not for me it's for my wife.

@@colinp2238 bullshit

Jack Cassidy was so great. Fiendishly clever, funny, entertaining.

I've handled many thousands of coins. It's possible someone could put one in a machine without smearing my print.

Peter Falk ist die beste

😊genau! Unsterblich!

I see more dimes and nickels than quarters

....stfu.....geeezzzzz....

@emigrate Don't forget that every cashless transaction has a card, which has so many details that would expose anyone using a meter.

@bobeagle007 what the heck bro, in the clip, Columbo decribed the pickup times of the meter - it equaled 5 hours. Also do you realize this is the comment section, the purpose of which is to comment on things we find interesting about the above clip, which is especailly more relevant on a whodunnit murder mystery! relax!

Dropping a few dimes on the table wouldn't have the same effect.

Where’s *their* fingerprint?

pizda matii 😂😂😂😂lawyer:sing like a bird!

Yeah, that is usually the best thing to do. The problem is that if they find another way to prove the case, they'll charge you and no longer have any reason to give you a deal or not charge you.
