Columbo (1971)

I can't believe there are so few reviews on this, Columbo is one of the defining detectives on television. He's so low key, so unimposing, and it's a pleasure watching him take down all those criminals that think they are are smarter than him, better than him because of, well how little and, well how wrinkled and cheap he appears.

He's the opposite of so many detectives on television these days, the everyman solving crimes.

It's just a brilliant approach to a character, and one that is fantastically fun to watch.
