The real surprise is, after he tells her about the policeman outside who would hear if she shot him, he goes out of the French door when she goes to get dressed...and there's no policeman there.
As a Brit, it's probably the only Columbo episode I kind'a don't like (i think Columbo is by far the best detective series ever made), only because it portrays us Brits as stuck-up, stiff-upper lip, shakespeare obsessed, rain-suffering buffoons....(oh, actually maybe Columbo's right!!!!)
"In order to lay water pipe, someone would have to dig up the lawn, wouldn't they?" I think this is one of the best lines of dialog ever written for Columbo. The subtext is so thick. He could have gotten a warrant and dug up her yard, made a whole event of her arrest. But instead, he tries to empathize with Nora, give her a safe space to let her secret go and be free of it. BEAUTIFUL scene.
As noted by Liliana Muldner, three female murders aren't included: Janet Leigh from "Forgotten Lady" Trish Van Devere from "Make Me a Perfect Murder" and Lee Grant from "Random for a Dead Man". But the scenes that are included here are excellent. Notably, the acting of the female leads is terrific throughout. Even the seeming "over-the-top-acting" of Honor Blackman in "Dagger of the Mind" and Anne Baxter in "Requiem for a Falling Star" is terrific. You have to keep in mind that Honor's and Anne's characters are fading actresses. So, Honor and Anne depicted their characters as melodramatic even in life, especially when caught.
@@MrRobby1 There was also a few more. One of them was the girl who pushed a man named Tony and he ended up dying from falling through a glass table. It was from "Columbo Likes the Nightlife". Her boyfriend, who was opening up a new dance club, hid the body in the bottom of a water tank. It was an accident, but he died from her pushing him. It was also Columbo's last case. Her name was Jennifer Sky. There was also the girl that tried to poison Columbo because he was the one who arrested her husband for a crime and he ended up dying in prison. Her name was Helen Shaver and the name of the episode was "Rest In Peace, Mrs. Columbo". The one with Ruth Gordon is also one of my favorites.
@@captaincarl8230 Good point, but Jennifer Sky's character in "Columbo Likes the Nightlife" wasn't, legally, a "murderer." Carmine Giovinazzo's character died from an accidental fall, and there was no intent to kill him. Unlike Bob Culp's character in "Death Lends a Hand," who struck Patricia Crowley's character, Jennifer Sky's didn't even forcibly hit Carmine Giovinazzo's character, so she could not even be said to have been "reckless" or "negligent."
@@jamesfeldman4234 You're right. I forgot about the scene where he kills the person that was blackmailing them because he had taken a picture of inside her apartment and wanted a night with her in exchange for the photo.
_Dagger of the Mind_ That final mad scene with Basehart's breakdown and soliloquy from _The Bard's Play_ and contrapuntal commentary from the other characters is as masterfully constructed as a Bach fugue.
Peter Falk is one of my favorite actors. I love both Colombo and Mannix, I love the shows, the guest stars,the story lines. I also absolutely love the clothes, the furniture, the art on the walls. I also watch it now that I live in Southern California because it's so funny to recognize the filming locations.
I actually do watch it everyday. I have all of the DVDs and it's also on several television channels everyday where I live. Peacock isn't available in Europe. Whenever there's nothing else good on TV or I feel overwhelmed by so many choices and can't decide what to watch, I always watch a Columbo episode.
3:22 Billy Goldenberg's fantastic music really makes this scene - the way it hold the suspense, finally resolving as the murderess hands over the gun. 📺🎵👍 Susan Clark's last look at the Lieutenant shows she's finally met her match, and it's all over!
"And besides you're too classy a woman, now would you please get dressed now? I'm gonna use that the next time someone points a gun at me and see if it works.
I ended up, looking up Lee Grant and a host of other roles after her spectacular performance in the initial Colombo. Stunning actress, both visually and professionally.
It must grieve Columbo to have to bust someone who he admired for years. Like movie stars. In the beginning he shows his admiration to them by telling them he saw their movies or read their books. Then he has to turn around and send them to jail.
There are at least 5 different platforms that air Columbo and not a single one plays the entire episode!!!? I don’t understand why 😮 The pleasure of watching columbo is from start to finish not few minutes here n there put together !
My favorite villainess is Janet Leigh forgotten lady. The one scene that still puzzles me is when she’s in rehearsal taking a break and Columbo talks w her. She looks truly confused for a minute looking at him like he’s a monster, then comes back to reality. I always wondered if this was a sign of her brain disease in the story.
Her character had Alzheimers and was dying so she had a moment of illness seep through, letting the viewer witness her mind before telling us about her health.
2:50 I love the way the camera starts zooming in, and the look of terrified realization creeps into her face after he says "oh, big difference". Small details like that.
The early Columbo movies were the best. Much later, in the 80s and ‘90s, they almost like paradies and not as well done. They also bucked credibility as is it’s hard to accept Columbo still being a detective Lieutenant after all those years.
I know this is off-topic but I just want to say that since Hollywood has no new ideas and they continually make unnecessary and unwanted remakes of movies and TV shows, they had better not try to remake Columbo. They ruined Charlie's Angels that way. They ruined Hawaii Five-O over that way. The list goes on and on. NBCUniversal, hands-off Columbo!
I think this video should have been entitled "Every Time The Murderer Was a Woman part 1". I don't see Trish Van Devere, Janet Leigh, Ruth Gordon or Lee Grant included, and that is just what I can remember from the original 70's episodes. Maybe the rest will be shown in part 2?
Women are picked as murderer in quite a few of Columbo. It happens quite a bit in Sherlock Holmes movies as well. I'm a bit sympathetic to how the women are set up before the murders, usually. I'm also impressed with your advertising selections. It's a good indication for me, of your success. 💎 God bless
In "Old Fashioned Murder", did anyone ever figure out the sub plot about the "killing" of Janie's father aka the murderer's fiance? I have watched that episode a dozen times and I feel like some imp part of the plot was left on the editing room floor. It feels like it's never really resolved as to whether she killed him or not.
There have also been times when men were the murders, women were their accomplices. The one I remember most is the one where the art collector kills his uncle to get his art collection, and his art student girlfriend helps him cover it up. Of course he killed her as well and made it look like a car accident.
There was the episode where the woman was bragging about her boyfriend had stayed the night at her place making love all night, until Columbo made her realize that was a bad idea being his alibi, it wiped the smug look right off her face, classic Columbo
As mentioned by others this isn't EVERY time even if we're only considering the 70s episodes. Lee Grant, Ruth Gordon, Trish Van Devere, Janet Leigh....
I wish there was ‘just one more thing’ Colombo had such good writing Falk was just perfect for this role plus the show didn’t rely on people running all over place as entertainment rather dialogue as is the case now
Lol i got SO confused by your comment. First I googled Helen Shaver to check if she was really wife of Peter Falk and if she passed away- turned out she wasn't his wife, and is doing well until now! I was ready to reply to you 'get lost, troll's xD It took me a few seconds to connect the dots.
I could never figure why the female killers did not appear in more than one episode each. I would have liked to have seen Trish Van Devere or Susan Clarke, or Faye Dunaway in the 1990's remakes, be the killer in two or three episodes each.
Joyce Van Patten's Aunt Ruth: The most dignified response to an arrest in the Columbo series. (Lips pursed in a silent exhalation of breath. Lady-like dabs at the jawline to touch away moisture. And that elegant old-fashioned nod to ladylike vulnerability and protective chivalry: "Lieutenant, may I take your arm?" I love it! So does Columbo, whose eyes shine with appreciation when he hears her request. Great acting!)
"And tomorrow...." One of the times Columbo drove someone mad. It would have been funny if he was still saying that in the car when the police drove them off.
The poison ivy one is flawed in that most tend to not break into a rash the first time in contact with poison ivy or it can take ten days for a rash to develop. Usually that first touch is not as severe either. The second and subsequent touches will, in most people, automatically lead to a rash and be much more severe. It is possible that on your first touch with poison ivy you may react severe enough for a rash and itching, but the odds they both did? Considering part of his proof was that neither travelled anywhere to come in contact with the plant and thus they never had that first contact before the slide either. I guess because it does not grow around them.

I like the air of madness Susan Clark had in that episode and the expression on her face after Colombo said she was classy is priceless.
Great actress! Loved her in porky’s😘
Currently probably my favorite episode of Columbo
The real surprise is, after he tells her about the policeman outside who would hear if she shot him, he goes out of the French door when she goes to get dressed...and there's no policeman there.
@@captmurdockHe literally just said that so he wouldn't get shot XD
Brilliant
Mr Falk was born for this role !!!! Beyond brilliant !!!!
"I'm always getting you angry, I'm sorry, it must be my accent or something."
Hahaha! gold =D
I laughed.
As a Brit, it's probably the only Columbo episode I kind'a don't like (i think Columbo is by far the best detective series ever made), only because it portrays us Brits as stuck-up, stiff-upper lip, shakespeare obsessed, rain-suffering buffoons....(oh, actually maybe Columbo's right!!!!)
Especially funny since Richard Basehart, the actor who plays Nicholas Frame, is from Ohio.
"In order to lay water pipe, someone would have to dig up the lawn, wouldn't they?"
I think this is one of the best lines of dialog ever written for Columbo. The subtext is so thick.
He could have gotten a warrant and dug up her yard, made a whole event of her arrest. But instead, he tries to empathize with Nora, give her a safe space to let her secret go and be free of it.
BEAUTIFUL scene.
RIP Mr Peter Falk.... Nobody could have done it better my friend.x
It’s sad he died not knowing who Columbo was anymore

Only if his artificial British accent was not this evident.
Just spent 50 UK pounds for ALL episodes! i am on a Columbo binge watch
I am as well. I watch all of the episodes on Peacock.
Wow big spender here.
Peter Falk is one of my favorite actors.
I love both Colombo and Mannix, I love the shows, the guest stars,the story lines. I also absolutely love the clothes, the furniture, the art on the walls. I also watch it now that I live in Southern California because it's so funny to recognize the filming locations.
Ah, you could've got the complete set for £32 from CEX!
Money well spent, sir
It always seemed like by the end of the episode the murderer would want to yell out "Arrest me will you Columbo. You are driving me nuts!"
Well , I think that’s how the MAD magazine take on this show ends 😂
I could watch Columbia every day 😂
I actually do watch it everyday. I have all of the DVDs and it's also on several television channels everyday where I live. Peacock isn't available in Europe. Whenever there's nothing else good on TV or I feel overwhelmed by so many choices and can't decide what to watch, I always watch a Columbo episode.
It’s free on Tubi streaming. I’ve watched them all a dozen times !
Sometimes I do😂
Just use a vpn, then peacock is available on Mars🎉
@@jcmontecarlo6123 tried that. It doesn't work because I can't get the apk file even with vpn
3:22 Billy Goldenberg's fantastic music really makes this scene - the way it hold the suspense, finally resolving as the murderess hands over the gun. 📺🎵👍
Susan Clark's last look at the Lieutenant shows she's finally met her match, and it's all over!
This is a great one! My favorite is Lovely but Lethal... the cosmetic lady murderer.
Anne Baxter. Beautiful lady 🌹
Columbo is my absolute Favorite.....he is one of a kind
Love Columbo. What a great show.
The look on Anne Baxter's face when she realizes she is screwed is amazing.
"Drink, Lieutenant?"
"And besides you're too classy a woman, now would you please get dressed now?
I'm gonna use that the next time someone points a gun at me and see if it works.
make sure to bookmark so you can come back and let us know.
😂😂😂it doesn't. I tried that once and almost got shot twice.
Me too. I'm tired of having to have bullets removed from my body ...
@@rabbiswhyshould've also said, "cops are outside, whats the point"
The NEXT time?!?! 😱
I ended up, looking up Lee Grant and a host of other roles after her spectacular performance in the initial Colombo. Stunning actress, both visually and professionally.
Trish Van Devere is another gorgeous actress who appeared in Columbo.
This is a great episode!
When Columbo says “that’s when it hit me” the killer is toast
"Just one more thing "
All excellent episodes & as always, the Lieutenant solved every case!!! 👍👍🙂
america is starving for great quality wholesome shows like these. i sure miss those days.
Agree. But murder as wholesome?
So true!!
There’s still great television
@@myfriendcaffeine-tb2fn the character of columbo is what’s wholesome, not the act of murder. obviously.
@@obscure.reference Yup.
I loved the Ruth Gordon one which you have missed from your compilation.
Ruth Gordon episode?
Absolutely need that one 😂❤
Loved RIP MRS. COLUMBO. Helen Shaver was excellent & quite scarily mad.
Who's Helen Shaver?

So showing parts of it doesn’t infringe copyright but if they were to show from start to end it does!!?
@@eentun9340 They have to make their money, so yes. Scenes, some zoomed in close and cropped. That's to avoid copyright laws.
Also, it drives you to do what the owners want and what I did: BUY the series. Lol. It's worth it!
@@TheWriterWalker I do own them on a dvd & VHS now time to buy them again!?😂

I'm like okay it's time to get to bed and this Chanel is like just one more clip..
There was a touch of frost when they did the umbrella case...
2:50 I love the way the camera starts zooming in, and the look of terrified realization creeps into her face after he says "oh, big difference". Small details like that.
please please upload all the episodes FULL
Why would this channel’s owner do that? These clips are long advertisements for the subscription access to all full episodes.
Great compilation but I think you left out Ruth Gordon's fantastic performance as the murderer in Try and Catch Me.
Janet Leigh was my favourite. Her acting in "Forgotten Lady" was phenomenal.
This was so beautifully done,❤️
Susan Clark is a class act. Beautiful woman!
Each lady - classy as hell, loved this.
Susan Clark, Honor Blackman, Anne Baxter, Vera Miles, Celeste Holm and Joyce Van Patten.
Honor Blackman was a stunning beauty but she was quite a bad actress
Whole series coulda ended early.
“You don’t wanna do that. You’re a classy lady.”
“My dear Columbo, that’s where you’re wrong.” _bang!_
Credits roll.
😅 lmao ...pearl landing on carpet , went tap tap 😅😅😅
So Great 👍🎉😂!
The early Columbo movies were the best. Much later, in the 80s and ‘90s, they almost like paradies and not as well done. They also bucked credibility as is it’s hard to accept Columbo still being a detective Lieutenant after all those years.
I agree, the early episodes were like a fine wine - such richness in the studio sets and the music.
One wise man said 🤔 Don't mess with the best because the best don't mess🕵️❤

Good part 1. Part 2 can be Lee Grant, Janet Leigh, Ruth Gordon and Trish Van Devere.
The music!!! The hairdos!!!
The one with Ruth Gordon is my favorite.

Ruth Gordon was such a delicious morsel of ham in that one.
Those who love Columbo have great taste.

A woman scorned: the sharpest thorn
Not as poisonous as the scorn of a male… some dont even live to get away from that thorn
Awesome
Rest in peace peter falk

you forgot the best one: "I was murdered... by Abigail Mitchell"
There was also a Television Movie in 1990 called Rest in Peace, Mrs. Columbo with Helen Shaver as the murderess.
That’s the hardest carpet I’ve ever seen! That pearl tapped like it was on tile! 😬
Ann Baxter takes the cake
There have also been times when men were the murders, women were their accomplices.

I am glad that Columbo was willing to display women as villains. Most TV shows would not do that.
The bluff in the first clip: at the end Columbo steps outside and its revealed he was alone the whole time
Basehart too much angel dusk Excellent performance😂
That last one hits so hard.
Faye Dunnaway was also a murderer in one of the later episodes. And that really hot blonde was an accomplice in Colombo Loves The Night Life
As mentioned by others this isn't EVERY time even if we're only considering the 70s episodes. Lee Grant, Ruth Gordon, Trish Van Devere, Janet Leigh....
this is an other one of my favorite My favorite guy always wins.
This is a few times, there is at least 4 more female editions.
Yes, there was and I named a couple in another post.
🧡Columbo
I enjoy watching an episode in 10 minutes but don't know how anyone could sit through an hour.
I wish there was ‘just one more thing’ Colombo had such good writing Falk was just perfect for this role plus the show didn’t rely on people running all over place as entertainment rather dialogue as is the case now
My favourite fact. Susan Clark was married to Mungo from Blazing Saddles.
I can't believe Webster's mom would do something like that. 😄
What about my favorite, Lee Grant in "Ransom for a Dead Man"?
Helen Shaver RIP Mrs Columbo
Lol i got SO confused by your comment. First I googled Helen Shaver to check if she was really wife of Peter Falk and if she passed away- turned out she wasn't his wife, and is doing well until now! I was ready to reply to you 'get lost, troll's xD It took me a few seconds to connect the dots.
It took me years to realize that she was Webster's mom and Mongo's wife!
❤🎉❤❤ Супер фильм, очень круто ❤😀❤
3rd lady was a OG wit it 😂
You forgot: Ransome For A Dead Man. Season 1.
beautiful~
I could never figure why the female killers did not appear in more than one episode each. I would have liked to have seen Trish Van Devere or Susan Clarke, or Faye Dunaway in the 1990's remakes, be the killer in two or three episodes each.
Irony is, Van Devere actually kinda plays Dunaway in "Make Me a Perfect Murder", what with it being a sly take on 1976's "Network".
Faye Di away was in the revival
Female killers are rare in real life.
You don't see them again because they're in jail after the first murder.
never seen him take a drink..great scene...(fallen star)
Joyce Van Patten's Aunt Ruth: The most dignified response to an arrest in the Columbo series. (Lips pursed in a silent exhalation of breath. Lady-like dabs at the jawline to touch away moisture.

The criminals are always so accommodating for old Colombo
That first woman is incredibly stunning WOW
PETER FALK A GENIUS AT SOLVING HOMICIDES. HE WAS ALWAYS CONSISTENTLY AWESOME.
Colombo would make u tell on urself.😅😅😅😅❤❤❤❤
"And tomorrow...." One of the times Columbo drove someone mad. It would have been funny if he was still saying that in the car when the police drove them off.
Great to see Barnard Fox
That's a beautiful puppy❤
Ruth Gordon is missing as well.
How is this a Columbo station when Ruth Gordon is not here.
What about all the times Columbo shows up before the murder? I can think of at least 3.
The poison ivy one is flawed in that most tend to not break into a rash the first time in contact with poison ivy or it can take ten days for a rash to develop. Usually that first touch is not as severe either. The second and subsequent touches will, in most people, automatically lead to a rash and be much more severe. It is possible that on your first touch with poison ivy you may react severe enough for a rash and itching, but the odds they both did? Considering part of his proof was that neither travelled anywhere to come in contact with the plant and thus they never had that first contact before the slide either. I guess because it does not grow around them.
Sooooooo try and catch me doesnt count?
Abigail Mitchell Arrives and asks , am I a joke to you?
