This episode was directed by a young Steven Spielberg.

Love how Columbo pretends to pay attention to Ken’s mob theory while clearly he is not buying it at all

One of the early episodes, and one of the Best.

It's the very first episode of Colombo.

You know, my wife once took a Boeing flight. She said those whistleblowers have a life expectancy of 40 years.

A great episode of Columbo. You can tell its a Steven Spielberg direction, especially with the close up angle shots.

I was always fascinated by Jack Cassidy's elegance & classiness. Shocked that he caused David, his son so much pain.

According to David’s book his father had mental health issues and was a chronic alcoholic. He said his behavior was pretty erratic. Might have contributed to how he treated his son.

He was also the father of Shaun Cassidy (David's half-brother). Jack Cassidy was a great actor. I really like seeing him on "Columbo" (as well as Robert Culp).

I love this episode (and all of the rest of them). I have watched them all probably over 20 times each. Sometimes, when I was younger, I would put on a Columbo that I (illegally) recorded on VHS from TV and let them play as I dozed off.

This is the episode directed by Steven Spielberg.

Great episode.

One of the best episodes.

Sad that the lady playing the blackmailer was actually murdered herself in real life. She was a great actress.

@SciTrekMan They never found the murderer. I just watched a shot story on her. Who was the other one please?

When Culombo says "oh, one more thing" - be affraid. Be very affraid.

I always love any episodes with jack cassidy in it, the majority portion of the episodes are a blast, but they're always relatively weak on the 'expose' part imo.

Poor Miss LaSanka. She was attracted to a murderer.

Columbo understands psychology. Underwhelm people, make them think they know more than you and are smarter than you & let them talk about all they know on a subject. Eventually, they'll say something crucial to the matter.

Columbo is alive and well on youtube

Can you see this comment? (I get shadow banned and never know if my comments are visible to others). I hope so because "Columbo" episodes are alive and well and free by googling "Archive" Columbo episodes. You can watch all 69 episodes. It's great! "Archive" also airs (free) episodes of "Night Gallery" and I just watched the movie "CHRISTINE" (free) on "Archive" so you never know what other shows/movies etc. they air for free.

Brilliant show they don't make them like this anymore 😢

I have just watched this episode last night.

2:34: Oh, good lord; I used to have a vent hood just like that in my kitchen! Man, was that thing UGLY! Ripped it out a decade ago when we remodeled...

Bit of a flaw in story logic here. With Jack Cassidy proud of his “perfect alibi” for a murder story, and living in his partner’s shadow, he would have insisted it be used for an upcoming novel-and since the partner wrote it down, he would have been keen on the idea of using it sooner rather than later.

@@robertocaba5915 This poor gal got smashed in the face like that other gal who got a fist to the face. There was a lot of face slapping, too in "COLUMBO." And equal-opportunity slapping. Men weren't spared a slap upside the cheek and even Columbo narrowly missed being slapped across the face by a bratty teenager who'd already slapped her mom across the face but Columbo was quick to raise his arm just in time to ward it off...it must have been trending in the 70's, lol!🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐👀

Such a great episode to kick-off the first series. However, I think the murderer caved in way too easily. Still don't think Columbo had conclusive proof even with that slip of paper with the murder plot written on it.

Especially in Cailifornia courts- the lack of evidence portrayed in Columbo episodes would never fly. Great shiw however.

This is a popular episode, but despite the smooth acting, it doesn’t do much for me. The episode ft. Mr. Cassidy as a magician, that I enjoyed. Old enough to have seen it as a kid in the 70’s, as I recall the number trick Columbo learned (picking up the phone, etc.)

Good Call

Jack Cassidy died in strange circumstances during a fire while he was sleeping, a few months after his third appearance in the series. Steve Spielberg is the name of a character in season three, Mind over Mayhem.

He says "This is a professional killig" wrong.

The guy is wearing gloves, there is plastic on the sofa, does the victim suspect nothing? At this moment I tell myself that he is no more intelligent than a sheep going to the slaughterhouse.

You’re always in the neighborhood.

08:57 ... Columbo overall figured out the whole case, but the point about the book signing is kind of weak tea. People autograph items all the time "with all my love, etc" all the time and they don't really know the person very well at all, when people make autograph requests and ask for specific language in the autograph.

Ken should not have cancelled his first date.

Dans ses trois épisodes Jack Cassidy est l'un des meurtriers les plus inventifs, souriants et bavards... 😅
