I just watched an episode of Columbo with Faye Dunaway called All In the Game. If you are able to pull this episode up on your provider, I'd recommend it. It's outstanding. Dunaway and Falk together are great and the story line is excellent.
I also watched it and enjoyed it. I told my wife that the actress looked familiar; she immediately recognized her as Dunaway.
Thanks for the link. I have it saved for later.

I'm a huge Colombo fan but don't like the "newer" ones, season 8 and up, as much as the originals.
Having said that how could anyone not like anything with Faye Dunaway in it.
BTW... The Great American Family Channel has a Colombo marathon on every Sunday. It goes all day into early Monday morning.
They also show3 episodes (7:30 to 11 am) every weekday morning
Robert Culp is one of my favorite villains.

We’ve started watching all the episodes again on Prime Video. We’re up to Season 5. One thing I’ve noticed this time was at the end of several episodes all Columbo presents is really just circumstantial evidence. No court would actually convict in those episodes.
LOL
All he has to do is "suggest" the villain is guilty and he/she immediately confess an asked to be taken away in handcuffs.

Thanks. We've been back through just about every Blue Bloods and Murder She Wrote. We're also going back through Midsomer Murders from the beginning on Acorn. Since they do so few each year we limit ourselves to one every Thursday. The nice thing is that on Acorn you get the whole episode in one sitting. Columbo will make for another nice series to record.

Where've you been?
That's all it ever takes. You are presumed guilty until found guilty.
Want to get "them" really PO'd at you? Come up with an ironclad alibi

People are sometimes convicted with circumstantial evidence.

I love the line, "I don't believe in circumstances." To tell the truth, my quote, "add em all up and you get murder."

I didn't much like
Bonnie and Clyde, especially since the real Bonnie Parker looked more like Granny Clampett. And the movie itself portrayed the criminal exploits of a pair of thieving murderers as being somehow romantic. A lot of late-60's & early-70's movies seemed to celebrate the bad guys and took pains to make the good guys look inept or corrupt (or both)...
