Fun fact: Columbo was so popular in Romania that it almost caused a war. At the time, Romania had a government policy where they would limit how much imported television was broadcast on their networks, and Columbo was by far their most popular program. They ran out of episodes to watch because they had seen them all, and the public, convinced that the government was limiting how much American TV was being brought in and were holding out more, almost rioted. The CIA, in conjunction with the Romanian government, had to have Peter Falk deliver a taped speech to the Romanian people to let them know that they had, in fact, simply watched all of the Columbo content in existence, just to calm them all down.
So Columbo saved Romania from a war? Well done Lieutenant.
That sounded 112% made up... but apparently it actually happened
Uprising. Peter Falk headed off an uprising. That’s awesome
That's fascinating. Columbo was ahead of its time even though it was such a simple concept.
Shows one authoritarian regimes will always be under a threat of overthrow.
"I won't touch anything. I swear on my mother's eyes, not a thing. Please! Would you let me in?"...Just over 3 minutes later, throws an electric mixer into the bathtub. 😂😂😂 Ahhhh, that is so perfectly Columbo! 😁❤
Her and the Brother completely dropped the ball.
I think the police officer brought the old mixer to the house.
Right, absolutely golden🙌🏾🤣
Columbo: UNASSUMING MARAUDER
His cigar smoke is killing COVID!
Love the way Columbo gently takes her hand and walks her out of the basement. Compassion
He's always a class act. To the victims and innocents as much as the murderers.
Poor Mrs Peck . She knew them both since childhood and now they both do this . And Norman at least felt sorry but Dexter no he just was mad he s discovered . Obvious he is worse
Should have locked that old battle axe in the basement
I can't believe how well they pulled off the twin effect. Every other instance I've seen of this from that era is abysmal.
and they didnt even need to be twins if the only part one twin needed to do was drive away, so thats funny
This is the only time I’ve seen someone WANT to talk to Columbo and he says NO.
Normally they can’t get him to shut up
Martin Landau was great, but my favorite aspect of this episode was the dynamic between Columbo and Mrs. Peck. He was constantly digging himself out of a hole, only to jump right back in it again. She had him at sixes and sevens throughout the episode, and I loved it.
She was terrifying, lol…
I didn’t see much of it, but her program looks like the worst tv show ever. It hardly matters what color it is.
She also had him at eights and nines.
@@douglaskopf6494 The show she was watching was a soap opera, so you couldn't expect quality or good acting.
@@cindydott452 He was in her house without a warrant. Therefore, he would have had no case.
- Norman, you couldn't tell a Picasso from a Rorschach test!
- Can anyone?
🤣
That is a great line.
Look my fellow future.😂😂
Just to confuse things.... Martin Landau was playing two characters each called Mr Paris.
Martin Landau was also well-known for his role as Rollin Hand in Mission:Impossible. When Landau left the series, he was replaced by Leonard Nimoy, playing a Mr Paris! Nimoy also went on to play a murderer in Columbo...
The TV repair van reminds me of the sort of van that Martin Landau and company would drive off in at the end of _Mission Impossible_ episodes.
Wait there, Martin Landau was playing two characters each called Mr Paris...... Really!!!
I always remember Landau from Crimes & Misdemeanours. Where he, suitably, plays a guy plagued by guilt after killing someone.
Leonard Nimoy played Paris, not Mr. Paris, on Mission Impossible.
RJSRdg - What's with all the dots?
I'm not sure most people know how huge Landau was as an actor. Love all these guys.
One of the outstanding features of the Columbo series is the exceptionally high quality of the acting, especially since these episodes were produced relatively quickly at the time. Here you get not only the great Peter Falk and Martin Landau in two distinct roles, but you also get Jeanette Nolan (who adds some humor to the scene without taking any of the drama away) and a young Dabney Coleman as Columbo's lead assistant.
Its kind of crazy to think these episodes were originally supposed to come out about 2 weeks apart and that it was only Peter Falk's refusal for such a schedule that made them settle for roughly a month per episode. It ended up being a blessing in disguise tho as Columbo as a whole has aged like a fine wine.
One of the best episodes - they did the double role perfectly especially for the early 70’s - Martin Landau was great 👍
You mean Martin Landau was playing both of those guys? No wonder they looked so similar! I thought maybe Martin had a twin brother I didn't know about.
@@walterfristoe4643 which one of them went on to command Moon Base Alpha?
@buzz magister Do you mean "The man Who Haunted Himself" Saw that film a few months back on one of my DVD's in my collection. Loved it.
@@walterfristoe4643And when the Parent Trap starred Hayley Mills and Hayley Mills it meant there were 2 of them.
2:48 - This is the giveaway. Martin keeps his head sideways and doesn't look backwards to talk to his "twin brother" who started walking behind him 🤣
Poor Mrs. Peck was about to blow a gasket when Columbo "Didn't touch a thing" and took that television out AGAIN🙌🏾🤣
Honestly, this is one of the best twin scenes I have ever seen. Martin actually looks at a cue that is accurate. Fantastic acting, staging, and filming!
I quite enjoyed the twist - as a twin myself, I often resent the idea that it's always one that's evil, or bad. So it was quite refreshing to see them both have done it, especially the contrast in their reactions to being caught.
Except for his double. Even from behind he looks nothing like Martin. LOL
Almost every scene of this movie, when they try to make you think the same actor are two different people in the same room are really well done.
The "split screen" is of course the best way, but also using a double, always barely hidden by something and the fact that they keep talking and looking to the other one, out of the frame.
All really well made.
...
Well... except when they fully show the back of the double, with the cheapest wig possible.
This show gets better like a fine wine... WE MISS YOU MR FALK.
Beautifully written and realized with Martin Landau giving a terrific performance as twins. Delicious all the way around. And how convincing to have two Martin's on the screen at the same time. Best I've ever seen from that era. Or even now for television
This show is timeless, just as GREAT today as it was when it first aired!
9:05 After this, Dabney Coleman decided to quit the force, become a high powered lawyer and later kill his rock star girlfriend and her lover (which Columbo had to solve) 😂
He also appeared in Kojak in 1974!!!!
But before he became a lawyer, he became the Vice President of Consolidated in Nine to Five.
Is that him? I would never have guessed. Well spotted.
@@SeansModelBuilds Mr. Tinsworthy sent him to the jungles of Brazil.
Phrases that you never hear in a Columbo episodes
''Try proving that in a court room''
''I want a lawyer am not saying anything''
Columbo is detective fiction which is all about the viewer seeing him catch the killer who they saw doing the murder earlier on in the episode. Besides the killer was captured on film tossing the mixer into the bathtub electrocuting his uncle. The prosecutor would simply have to show the court that film clip.
Actually the first one is said all the time, this may be one of the less concrete ones but convictions have been made on less
@@tuxedobird Sure , convictions succeed based on how fast a person can lift a body from bathtub, all the time.
@@parapoliticos52 He showed that the witness was unclear, motive, the exact way the crime was committed, the fact they look the same, proof he lied to the police and they were actually in contact, and on top of that, the lack of physical ability. The conviction was NOT made “just cuz he couldn’t pick up the body”
Yes, people often write this. Two problems. Innocent people don't have a reason not to cooperate with the police. Failure to do so only shines the spotlight on them. Second, lawyers are expensive. If every time the police want to you, you then phone a lawyer that becomes a rather expensive proposition. (Travel time, cost per hour.) All to not answer two or three questions? Yup, what a brilliant strategy.
Great episode especially the interaction between the two opposites, the slovenly Columbo and the fastidiously neat housekeeper Mrs Peck. She accepted him at the end though once it became obvious who the killer and his accomplice who helped him were.
@Jill Sweeney Also, she knew she had to get moving to find a new job and home. With the nephews in jail, there was nobody to pay her to tend to that house.
@Jill Sweeney you don't inherit people though. The young wife, as portrayed, most likely would not want an older housekeeper.
She was really annoying.
@@cindydott452 young wife didn’t survive e the episode. Cat woman didn’t take that fall well.
@@SheriSoltes I didn't say she lived. I was just pointing out that when a house is inherited, you don't inherit people with it.
Both Falk and Landau were talented artists. As far as I remember, Landau started work as a cartoonist for print media and Falk could have earned his living as an illustrator, he was that good.
Can we just talk about how Columbo glides down those stairs? 😆
chise - No. Now stop asking stupid questions.
@@donjose8250 When is Columbo the so-called clumsy guy?
@@donjose8250 Clumsy when?
@@donjose8250 So you don't know...
@@donjose8250 You thought WHAT was clear enough?? Your lack of examples?
No one is ever cuffed, and no one ever makes a run for it. Very courteous murderers.
Today, I had a consultation with Doctor Smith in the library of an aged care home. During the consultation, a frail, elderly resident entered the library, and politely asked, ''Can I take a book?'' I said, ''Please take one''. The expression expressed on Doctor Smith's face seemed to suggest that he did not approve of the resident's request, or my approval.
The sound in all the Columbo episode clips on this channel is awesome. Everything crisp and no added volume changes. You can clearly hear details, the rustling of clothes, the breathing, everything, it's as if you're with them on the sound stage during recording.
Pity they couldn't fit Barbara Bain somewhere in the episode. She was married to Martin Landau at the time and starred alongside him in both "Mission Impossible" and "Space 1999". Great episode especially when the housekeepers television went off just as she was watching her favourite soap opera, and then changed colour when it turned back on again.
Why would a power cut damage the TV set?
I think it is Hollywood making it up for dramatic effect. It never happened to me in all my years of owning CRT televisions even after a power cut.
Martin Landau had an affair with Sylvia Anderson during the the Filming of Space 1999, it destroyed his marriage and the Andersons marriage and Space 1999.
Have to say that they got a convincing twins effect in the editing room. Columbo puts away 2 for the price of one.
6:18 What are you afraid of? A fate worse than DEATH?!
An outlet right next to the tub... just inches away 🤣
"Purple, I'll KILL HIM!!!" My favorite quote.
Usually we all know who the suspect is by the time the show gets to the end. But this one was a complete surprise. Two suspects (twins) instead of one. Genius.
Great comic acting by falk where he arrives and sees the tv repair truck, looks awkwardly and throws his cigar away....classic backfoot columbo knowing how angry she was going to be
Rest in powerful peace
Peter Falk 🙏

And Martin Landau 🥰 RIP 🥰
@Zo Valentine and Bamboo 59, It is sad that the passage of time removed these amazing people from our midst... But the good thing is, we have these amazing episodes to remember them with, when they were at the top of their skills.....
@@michaelmartinez1345 Absolutely, they enhanced our lives growing up. 💔
@@bamboo59.52 Yes they did... And that is something that is positive, that should be passed-on for many generations.... I really liked Martin Landau in the movie 🍿 (based on a true story) called 'Tucker - the man and his dream...'
Zo - Oh please...
One of the best endings of any Columbo episode.
Martin Landau was super in this dual roll but for me, Mrs Peck was the darling of the episode!!! Her banter with the Lieutenant was great!!! 👍👍🙂
What banter? She was the prototype of the modern Karen phenomenon. Colombo should have had her arrested for impeding a murder investigation. I can never figure out why he put up with her BS. He should have shoved her and her precious TV into a closet!
Her character was really annoying.
Dabney Coleman in a rare appearance of being almost invisible in these scenes. He got payback as the main villain in the next generation series.
Working that gum and ‘stache. Generous of Falk to allow that gum chomping as it pulls focus to Coleman.
Going to the end of a book to read the ending isn't a good idea, so I am going to stop this NOW !🤣
That final long shot of Columbo and the Misses...now that's good TV! No wonder the show was so successful!
Great episode. I love the clues in this one.
I like the relationship of Lieutenant Columbo and Mrs. Peck
I can never understand why Columbo put up with her BS. He should have arrested her for impeding a murder investigation. He should have thrown her and her precious TV into a holding cell.
The shrill shrieking creature was the prototype of the modern Karen phenomenon. A completely unlikable character.
That poor poor woman...
And just when she thought Columbo was the worst thing happened to her, after Mr. Paris' death, she had to deal with the revelation of the identity of the murderers.
Yeap . The boys she knew as kids . And obvious Norman at least is shy but Dexter shut up . Obvious he s worse
Martin Landau, I feel, was underrated as an actor.
Won an Oscar for his role in Ed Wood though, and richly deserved.
@@markchambers3833 absolutely. Have a like!
Underrated by who?
Columbo's interaction with the old lady was rather amusing to me :)
I love how he turned the power off on the lady when he didn’t have to. He could’ve just timed how long it took him to walk from the 2nd floor to the basement 😂
Well he would also need to time of how long he would have to change the fuse
@@justisolated5621also if putting an appliance in the tub would make the power be restored after.
Shows like this besides being so enjoyable and entertaining, are time capsules for people my age who remember TV repairmen and Rotary Phones.can you imagine explaining that people made a living avoid living, driving to homes and “Fixing” TV’s. I remember the Correspondence School Courses for TV and Radio Repair. It’s like ancient history now. Ha!
Wow, at 3:50, was that really the best stand-in they could find? Not the same height, hair, or build but otherwise perfect.
Jeanette Nolan as Ms. Peck made this episode amazing lol
Classic episode ❤
Mrs Peck was brilliant, one of the best minor characters in Columbo
Martin Landau was one of the greatest.
Good housekeepers are hard to find.
Good thing GFCI weren’t a thing by this point, or there would be no story. Not bad work getting convincing twins.
Just have an extension cord ready to plug into other outlets outside the bathroom. Not that hard to plan. Or disable the GFI trip function.
My thoughts indeed.
I love how everyone is giving him a hard time. People: this is a police detective investigating a murder. Being irritable and yelling about your TV is not reasonable.
Except in the case of persons of that particular social strata, who are not used to people challenging them, or relatively minor inconveniences. They live in a different world.. and the Lieutenant is now challenging that world - hence, their 'irritability'.
I think Mrs. Peck was just grieving in her own way
@@GodsFavoriteBassPlyr Social strata? She was the *HOUSEKEEPER!*
Also featuring a "giant octopus" furnace like the one from the Home Alone movie.
Good comedic scenes between Columbo and Mrs. Peck
The only suspects turn out to be the murderers. Yes this is a surprising ending.
Eh, you do know that Columbo doesn't follow that typical formula, right?
Fascinating.
I love that episode. Mrs. Peck and her TV and the great interaction she has with Columbo.
The actor was good but that character was annoying af. Columbo should have punched her in the face.
I recognized Landau as soon as I saw him in that suit because he looked just like Leonard from North by Northwest lol
Martin Landau must have done this episode around the same time as Space 1999. He looks the same age.
The SECOND he threw mixer in the tub, the clip cut to an ad that stayed buffered on a black screen for 10 seconds. It was like he short circuited the video itself.
Aside from Columbo, Mrs. Peck was the best character this series ever presented.
Wow, that mixer shocked me into a commercial!!😮
"Now I have to wait 25 years for DVDs to get invented and the box set released! WHY HASN'T TIVO BECOME A THING YET?!"
"You're a bad brother, never going to go murdering with you again."
Who on God's green earth places a receptacle so close to a bathtub? Someone not knowing, places an radio
by the tub, a great set up for an electrical accident.
Dabney Coleman for the win. I like the mustache.
And believe it or not, nearly the cookery show scene is nearly all ad-lib
nearly the cookery show???
UNREAL
This is (yet another) example where the (in this case, two) murderers should have shut up right away. A good lawyer would have done an excellent job of dismantling Columbo's case.
Who else remembers round color TV, and of course the color adjustments 😂😂😂😂
(8:50) Defense Attorneys around the country are face-palming.
Well the evidence is pretty clear here.
Peter Falk was perfect as Columbo. I doubt the series would have lasted for 25 years if someone else has been chosen to play the character.
Correction: I meant 36 years.
They always had great actors as the bad guys. Always.
And this is why you NEVER talk to the police.
The officer at 9:04 who says "Okay, gents" was in a later episode as the culprit, the one with the speeding ticket.
asmr footsteps sound effects for 70s
They got two actors who look just like that guy from that spy show.
Great acting as ever, but finding the two actors to play the killers was even better. This was before CGI.
I believe the layman's term for it is split screen technique. Amazingly well done because for the other half they got to remember exactly where the other brother spoke to fill in the gaps. That must take some degree of rehearsing and practice to get just right. Or the director is standing where the other brother is standing saying the lines so he would know when to speak his other brother's lines.
I believe you are trolling
Oh My God. They had an power point right next to the bath!! Don't they know how dangerous that is,? Someone could get killed!! lol!
So sad
this woman reminds me of mom when i push the pause button or skip back on dish network
I love how he pronounces burglar "burgalar"
Reminds me of the Menendez Brothers
Why is Columbo using a Mixer? Because he always "BEATS" the bad guys in a battle of wits!
3:50 that statue is giving me nightmares
Can someone explain why old shows like this superimpose video onto TV screens rather than just playing the TV? Like they do with the beginning of this scene. 00:11
Does it have something to do with an exposure within an exposure appearing bleach down or having a strobing effect if their framerates are not synced?
The Paris brothers. Landau's character in Mission: Impossible - Paris.
I thought Leonard Nimoy was Paris.
Landau's character was Rollin Hand
Tom and Jerry duo 🤯
Except that if the fuse blew instantaneously, he might be shocked, but doubtfully killed
Didn't he have a bad heart?
I understand why the housekeeper is pissed. In those days if you missed an episode you had to wait 6 months to see the re-run. No ability to tape yet unless you were rich enough to afford a video recorder.
Good episode with martin landau
I would like to see how two men drag a body around the house on floors, and at the same time no one notices them
Ive heard that music on Night Gallery
How many times has crime unraveled by talking on the phone?🤔
Yeah, that was stupid. You use pay phones not land lines that can be traced back to you.
This was fantastic interaction between a fastidious house proud lady & if course the lieutenant who wasn't exactly tidy 😆excellent as always 👌..
She was the prototype for the modern Karen phenomenon. Colombo should have arrested her for impeding a murder investigation.
This was a no brainer. As soon as you knew there was a twin brother you knew they were working in cahoots, that's a classic. But a weak case anyway, as many Columbo has solved which are non starters without a confession.
the cut at 5:25 with the mixer was a bit clumsy, they should of got him to turn it off before they switched shot.
should've
@@jonhohensee3258 yep that pesky 'of' still plagues me sometimes :D
I wanna know how he walked down those steps without watching where he was going while looking at a stop watch.
Cuz he had tested/done it before in a prep step.
This week on columbo, columbo explains why GFCIs are mandatory in bathrooms and kitchens
She wasn't upset with what the boys did she was wondering where her next Pay Check was coming from
Martin Landau is inimitable.
