I’m watching Columbo with the late Peter Falk and it brings back so many memories. It reminds me of the times I’d watch with my mom. Everybody loves Columbo. We knew the one who committed the crime and enjoyed watching Columbo solve the crime in 2 hours.
2:58 You know Columbo goes over this entire "puzzling" conversation with his sergeants beforehand, telling them what word he'll be "looking for". You might say he's directing a movie himself.
in an earlier scene Columbo asks him if the man was conscious or unconscious, to which the officer replies "what does it matter". Its a great way to show how Columbo sees things differently than other investigators.
If I remember the end of the episode, Rebecca helps Columbo (Peter Falk) play his "This Ole Man" song on her electric piano. This would have been the next scene.
This ending is notorious for not making any sense. I always had an idea that the TRUE “final clue” was as follows: Crawford steals his apprentice’s copy of the award-winning musical score to pass off as his own, BUT the special “love notes” from the baton identify Gabriel as the composer, not Crawford. But as it stands, it’s anyone’s guess...
I love season Columbo episodes from season 1 to season 8, I've never watched anything after that, i've heard of billy connolly starring in a episode since i'm a great fan of the big Yin
I expected Billy Connolly to make fart noises, just like I expected Richard Kline (Larry from Three's Company)---when he made a cameo in another episode---to have a goofy startled look.
I watched head of the class before discovering columbo. Was excited when I saw this episode. But billy looks quite like john cleese/nearly headless nick here.
Sir, we found the jobbie wheicher and the incontinence trousers, we know you were involved. There was banana footprints all up the driveway and the housekeeper distinctly heard someone say 'enuffoooorrrrrcheerrruubeeeeee I love you..'
Even if the writing was a bit iffy and the ending gotcha was quite lackluster. There is a good amount of merit this episode has that I quite like a lot, most notably the direction and style of shooting was quite a bit similar to the 70's show. The cinematography I think is quite underrated in the original show and I really appreciate that they got that down pretty well in this episode.
People dont scream as they fall to their death, thats just a silly movie trope. They might scream after the fall out of pain and/or for help, but they might not be able to do that, depending on what damage they suffered from the fall.
Seems more of faster pacing, more dialogue, less instrumental scene chewing to maintain that 70's oppressiveness that creates the claustrophobic feeling as he closes in
They prove Gabe wrote the original music, thus providing a motive for the conductor to silence him rather than be exposed for plagiarism. The same notes were in the finished score.
And after his arrest the composer became known as "the Duke" and unbeknownst to him would in the future be contracted to kill two assassins who happen to be his sons.
I keep reading that stuff about these gems everywhere. Everything must be Prescription Murder. Even though Ransom for a Dead Man already is full of the very tongue in cheek all over that they despise so much. Then you get people stating they've never watched anything after season 8. I'm sure he meant 7. You get people state that they vomit watching anything made in the 90s. IMO they are just insane. I'm sure they did think that in 89 and later, but thankfully back then the internet was not like today. Well today they can type that garbage. I love all of these. I dislike a few from the 70s a bit, and a few from the 70s. Not hate, just not worth rewatching a lot. They actually act like these later episodes are pure trash.
It never says that the love notes are in the score. It should have. That would have made sense. As it is, Columbo shows the notes on the baton, the notes from the paper in Gabe's pocket ... and ... that's it. Suddenly it's over.
This whole Columbus show is only 10 minutes long. These 50s shows were too short and in black and white. TV was new and the TV sets were too small to hold a longer show.
Columbo's sir does get on the nerves overtime. I wish he would have changed his style in later seasons (dressed different and used less of the sir all the time). Also using the same gestures of touching the forhead and raised hand gestures. Its too repetitive.
He said they adore him. Adoration belongs by right to God alone. Also God's existence is proven. They've taken the proofs for the existence of God out of modern DEeducation but the proofs for the existence of God are a staple in any undergraduate philosophy tract. They're called St Thomas's 5 proofs. You can't get to Catholicism via logic alone but the sheer existence of God and that He must, for example, be One, IS proven. Here's one. You see that things have a cause. If you don't assent to this you're simply a liar. IF you don't have a First Cause of all Himself Uncaused you have an infinite regress of causes of effects and never getting to the First Cause you never get in reverse logic to what you see today by neccessary result of this infinite regress. The infinity (i.e. NEVER ending of causes creates an insurmountable gap because if its inherent infinity insurmountable gap because if its inherent infinity insurmountable to suffice for the existence of anything you see that exists and has a cause of its existence. There MUST therefore by neccesity exist a FIRST Cause that is Himself Uncaused Who is God. You're welcome

Stars really did queue-up to play the villain opposite Columbo. RIP Peter, the world loved you.
Wow, I never knew Billy Connolly was in an episode of Columbo
I did !!!
@@IanP1963 I seen an episode last week with Johnny Cash as the villain.
@Barbara Jolley what? Columbo never changed formats. They were always about 1 hour 15 mins long.
Embarrassed to admit it, but for a second I thought that was *Ray Liotta* in heavy makeup 🤦♂️
🤣 I DID! Ha ha ‼️Billy was shite❗ 😕
1:05 the way he just drops the shoes always made me laugh
The sergeant is on the verge of inventing this mat... with different CONCLUSIONS on it.... that you can JUMP to
Haha! Get it?! 😂
Take him away! Haha, love it, when Columbo shows his true feelings.
2:58 You know Columbo goes over this entire "puzzling" conversation with his sergeants beforehand, telling them what word he'll be "looking for". You might say he's directing a movie himself.

Billy Connolly's character was a complete creep. One of the top cold blooded killers of Columbo
If I remember the end of the episode, Rebecca helps Columbo (Peter Falk) play his "This Ole Man" song on her electric piano. This would have been the next scene.
Yeah, it was one of my favorite endings
1:39 " yeah , I screamed. It was the best part of the concert that night. 10 out of 10"
Marsha. You cold hearted 🤣
Billy Connolly has looked 50 for 30 years
The definition of aging gracefully, for sure.
“Yes, I did. I screamed”… awkwardddddd
This ending is notorious for not making any sense. I always had an idea that the TRUE “final clue” was as follows: Crawford steals his apprentice’s copy of the award-winning musical score to pass off as his own, BUT the special “love notes” from the baton identify Gabriel as the composer, not Crawford. But as it stands, it’s anyone’s guess...
That could be right. This ending always annoyed me.
That’s obviously what it is. It proves it’s not his work and thus it must’ve been stolen and provides a motive. It made complete sense.
I never got it
@@misterholmes221 except; with a good lawyer, it loses in court... and the guy walks -- like MOST of Columbo's cases.
@@lynskyrd So you know that Crawford is a murderer, but you call a lawyer that will release him "good".
“Take him away! Thanks everybody! We’re done!” Columbo was so offended by that guy, he got rude. Not very common.
Очень хорошая серия!-спасибо Питеру Фальку!
0:04 thats the fucking Gordon Ramsay violin
I have never understood this ending
Me too. I don't like the end and the murderer's cool reaction.
I always thought this was one of the weaker Columbo endings and episodes.
Nobody has mentioned Billy did a routine about scottish men having surnames for christian names 😜 and Finlay and Crawford were mentioned 😀
Last Columbo I watched and will ever watch. I'll revisit the 70s ones now and then. They're like Twilight Zones: just classics
I love season Columbo episodes from season 1 to season 8,
I've never watched anything after that,
i've heard of billy connolly starring in a episode since i'm a great fan of the big Yin
One of the more contrived episodes that doesn't really hang together at all, although Connolly was good.
even "bad" episodes of columbo are better than most TV so...
Billy on ITVs An Audience With "Scottish music is run by people called Crawford & Finlay". Billys characters name here ,Finlay Crawford!
Just so we're clear...She (Marsha) did in fact scream🤦🏾♀️😂😂🥰
Really loud too
Sounds like Columbo's been at the bourbon. He's WAY too animated
Columbo is looking a wee bit older in this episode.
One of the last ones filmed in 2000
What did you expect? Immortality?
I think this is probably the last gotcha of the entire columbo series
The real murderer was old age.
Respect Colombo 👏🍷
So surreal. Great theater 🎭 😀😀😀
Circumstantial evidence and speculation. Columbo did his job, BUT, a good attorney could beat this charge.
Circumstantial evidence is excellent evidence. Cold Case detectives use it all the time and get many convictions.
@@michaelbabbitt3837 Tell that the O.J. Simpson.
Marcia is played by Anne McGoohan the lovely daughter of recurring Columbo baddie Patrick McGoohan.
Patrick McGoohan directed this episode.
If I remember correctly she also starred alongside her father Patrick McGoohan in the episode of Columbo where he played a funeral director.
He was also the main Braveheart baddie.
I expected Billy Connolly to make fart noises, just like I expected Richard Kline (Larry from Three's Company)---when he made a cameo in another episode---to have a goofy startled look.
I bet Billy is not going to play a villain over the top 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember now, it was a great episode, seen it. Still, Billy Conolly, funny.
I watched head of the class before discovering columbo. Was excited when I saw this episode.
But billy looks quite like john cleese/nearly headless nick here.
Sir, we found the jobbie wheicher and the incontinence trousers, we know you were involved. There was banana footprints all up the driveway and the housekeeper distinctly heard someone say 'enuffoooorrrrrcheerrruubeeeeee I love you..'
Maybe the shoes two sizes too big are a Banana Boots reference?
Connolly plays Michael Kamen, Chad plays James Horner. So, in a 'who has stolen notes from who'-plot, that's quite the irony. ^_^
Even if the writing was a bit iffy and the ending gotcha was quite lackluster. There is a good amount of merit this episode has that I quite like a lot, most notably the direction and style of shooting was quite a bit similar to the 70's show.
The cinematography I think is quite underrated in the original show and I really appreciate that they got that down pretty well in this episode.
Billy Connolly is awesome. He also played a creep in X files movie as Father Joe.
Right when the people got off the lift, I heard that Kitchen Nightmares violin sting 💀
How did Columbo get him?
That music on the blackboard... 5 quarter notes in measures marked 4/4. Typical...
I was waiting for him to be caught with a jump to conclusions mat
0:04 **Kitchen Nightmare flashbacks**
I need Columbo to figure out my Love Life!?🙄
@@DanielleDenise1999 but just one more thing...
The solution is right here in this video. Just drug them so they can't scream.
It's just an illusion
0:04 Familiar sound?
In the key of C, for Columbo.
4 stories is only 40 feet, not 80 feet. Case dismissed.
Mane, I miss this guy
People dont scream as they fall to their death, thats just a silly movie trope. They might scream after the fall out of pain and/or for help, but they might not be able to do that, depending on what damage they suffered from the fall.
Thanks everybody. We're done.
The newer ones are different, too tounge-in-cheek or something.
The mood is completely wrong.
Seems more of faster pacing, more dialogue, less instrumental scene chewing to maintain that 70's oppressiveness that creates the claustrophobic feeling as he closes in
don't get the "becca-gabe; gabe becca" notes..how were they relevant?
They prove Gabe wrote the original music, thus providing a motive for the conductor to silence him rather than be exposed for plagiarism. The same notes were in the finished score.
Yeah. They were like signature meaning Gabe wrote them.
OMG! Becky actress would be the perfect live action Omega (Bad Batch)!
It's Smykowski from "Office Space"
No one, I mean no one could ever play this part again. It be ruined.
Tf I didn't know the big yin was in a culumbo
My mom used to watch this all the time when I was young. Most episodes he doesn’t really prove anything. He has just a theory.
And after his arrest the composer became known as "the Duke" and unbeknownst to him would in the future be contracted to kill two assassins who happen to be his sons.
Ay! Even the Big Yin disnae get away wit muhdurr wit da wee Lieutenant aroond!
Lotta Al Pacino in Columbo today
My least favorite Columbo episode ever. Not a good episode, not by the shows historically consistent great quality
Distracting, watching the scene jump in and out of sunlight.
Got him!
That's a wrap (sheet).
Shoulda called il Duce!
That's confusing
Columbo vs the great Tim the enchanter beware of bunnies
Connelly looks young
El Duche
My least favorite Columbo episode ever. Not a good episode
I couldn't follow that.
billyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
This is among the lower rated episodes of Columbo on IMDB. I'm not sure why this is.

Why didn't he scream? Because he was supposedly committing suicide?
The murderer staged it like it was an accident. If this was the case and victim slipped he would be screaming.
😀👍
Sorry but how does the baton prove that he is the murderer? Makes no sense to me.
That bugged me too
The notation gabe becca becca gabe is the notes of the composition crawford stole as his own. Proves that gabe composed it
It never says that the love notes are in the score. It should have. That would have made sense. As it is, Columbo shows the notes on the baton, the notes from the paper in Gabe's pocket ... and ... that's it. Suddenly it's over.

What strange earlobes Columbo has.
i never knew billy Connolly was sodomized by Colombo.
Columbo's sir does get on the nerves overtime. I wish he would have changed his style in later seasons (dressed different and used less of the sir all the time). Also using the same gestures of touching the forhead and raised hand gestures. Its too repetitive.

crap. as these are only cuts.
That's the point....

why not put the whole film on?, then i may well give a better rating.
