I don't want to derail the thread too much, but MeTV has to be the best of all those digital sub channels. Their Saturday night programming block, headlined by Svengoolie, is really good. They air the Twilight Zone and Alfred Hitchcock every Sunday-Friday evening. They air some good sitcoms and comedies in the mornings and evenings. Perry Mason twice a day. The station definitely is marketed towards boomers so you get all the awful ads you'd expect, but it's great overall.

I don’t know if it’s mentioned here in the thread but apparently Tubi had all the episodes? At least by my count it does. I also appreciate the thumbnails are usually just a picture of the guest star, making it easy to pick an episode.

Tonight's episode on MeTV is a great one. Troubled Waters Columbo is a on cruise when a murder takes place so he helps the captain solve the crime. . Directed by Ben Gazzara. Robert Vaughn is the perp Dean Stockwell as the patsy for the murder Patrick Macnee and Bernard Fox in supporting roles

Davros1 posted:Also, the captain talks about meeting Mrs Columbo, so that ruins that silly online theory that Columbo is just making her up. Yup. Sometimes people online (including here) are just so obsessed with the 'unreliable narrator' thing that they still believe something isn't true when it's absolutely shown to be true. Does Columbo lie to suspects about things wrt his wife? Absolutely. That's one of his methods of getting info from them. But there definitely is a Mrs. Columbo.

Davros1 posted:There was an interview with Rhys and he talked about making that ep. When he arrived at the airport, Falk was the one to pick him up. Hell, I know he just did a season of Perry Mason, but get him a trench coat and cigar for a Columbo movie. He could do it.

Tunicate posted:On set Peter Falk said "this kid's too good for Columbo" So you're telling me you're making a movie about an amusement park that has real life dinosaurs? Well ain't that something. This really is the best tweet ever.

There's a pretty short list of TV shows that I would consider timeless and Columbo is one of them.
