Columbo

 bannerImage

With his rumpled raincoat, ever-present cigar, bumbling demeanour and Sherlock Holmesian powers of deduction, disarmingly polite homicide detective Lieutenant Columbo takes on some of the most cunning murderers in Los Angeles, most of whom make one fatal, irrevocable mistake: underestimating his investigative genius.

Often called on to investigate high profile murders that involved the rich and famous, Columbo has a habit of nabbing culprits just as they think they’re going to get away with murder, by either trapping them or finding enough evidence to force a confession.

COLUMBO IS ON THE MOVE!

Starting on Sept. 1, 2014, each movie-length episode of Columbo will be presented in two parts, airing one night after the other. As a result, you’ll now be able to enjoy the detective’s inimitable crime-solving style four nights a week, from Monday to Thursday at 8pm, right after Murder She Wrote at 7pm ET. Check the episode list below to see which puzzling scenarios he’ll be faced with this fall!
