I mean they share an actress and pretty much deal with the same story. But if I recall correctly, Murder By Death is far superior.

And he and Arkin are so good together.

– \”Serpentine Shelly. Serpentine!

I must\’ve repeated those two lines a hundred times.

All this and much more, over and above his iconic Columbo memory and the impression that he\’d just be fun as hell to get drunk with….Rest well, Mr. Falk.

Love Peter Falk. Love Columbo. Untouchable. A Made Man.

Falk himself told the show\’s producers that Spielberg was too good for TV.

Fucking bummer.

I remember him more for \”Murder by Death\”, which I loved, even though I always get that title confused with \”Clue\”. I loved Falk poking fun as Sam Diamond.
