Is it because he's always nailing smug weirdo rich fuckbags? Is it the peter falk hard carry? Is it because despite being canonically a cop he does anything but act like a cop?
Is everything downstream of columbo an attempt to erase his legacy as the hound of wealthy sociopaths?
Is Columbo a demigod?
besides him going after rich people, he also goes after a police commissioner or something like that, and a CIA agent I think.
one of the best episodes is one where he goes after a guy who runs a private intelligence outfit and even tries to buy him out with a gigantic ass salary
oh yea, that is a good one. I also forgot but there also one where he also goes after like some leader of a military academy? I think it just nice watching him pretty much taking down people, who normally would be untouchable or just given a slap on the wrist and just getting away with it. Also with him toying with them as well at times.
I want to see Colombo versus Malory Archer.
