I believe that's one of the ones that Patrick McGoohan directed, but way over the top. It's Columbo via The Prisoner.

My source material did not list the earlier version: thanks for clarifying.

OK, I know I’m probably commenting too much, but I read Falk’s
autobiography for this article. While they were filming the
In-Laws, Falk complained to Alan Arkin that he just

I am way too sneaky for that rumpled detective! Oh, wait-

Did not know that!

Exactly. It would be like anyone else trying to do Columbo: Impossible!

Our family also watched the Mystery Movie every Sunday, and we were so excited when it was a Columbo, so disappointed when it was a McCloud. We also liked to play the "When does Columbo know who did it?" game before realizing that he always knows within the first few minutes.

Thanks: I stumbled into a bug with the CMS last night. So I know that all of you commenting really searched to find this review! ETA: Seems to be fixed now.

I can't ever remember a character transformation like Avery Barkley's. The one you love to hate in season one, the one you can't get enough of in season two.

Excellent choice Erik; god, I love this song. I had a guitarist roommate once who spent days trying to "learn" it, which was usually so annoying and involved so much repetition as to make me hate any song, and I didn't even care. Can't recommend the recent Big Star documentary "Nothing Can Hurt Me" highly enough for…

With an ass that won't quit?

Same. Now I want to hide all my kids' Shel Silverstein books.

Of course! Thanks; fixed.

Especially since she already kissed him, in Neverland.

Hey man, there's absolutely nothing wrong with undershirts.
