#Columbo #PeterFalk - บันเทิง
So hellbent on cracking down on his cadets that couldn’t help but incriminate himself by doing so.
he's so psychosexually obsessed with discipline. who said that
One of the things I like about Columbo is that even when he proves they're guilty, he gives them those rare moments of dignity and understanding.
And always, always respectful.
I love how extra disheveled Columbo looks in this episode, he looks so sweaty and tired haha
Deep South vs. So. Calif.
he got a wet sock. that alone could get you a cold
He lost a shirt sowewhere
the look on his face when they woke him at dawn
I think what I like about this is that Columbo, while officially holding a lower rank, is the only one with real world authority. So he can just override the Colonel when it suits him.
He may not even be a real Colonel. I went to a military school and most of the military staff were retired sergeants that received a Captain's commission in the national guard when they were hired.
Columbo is Not a man, but an avatar of justice. As a result, there is no authority he cannot override in the name of justice.

I was an extra in that scene with the cider
I was a stagehand and my job was to drink the cider.
@@sponk2112 I worked in the catering company and I dipped my toe (and one other bodypart) in that cider.
@@swedishpsychopath8795 I WAS THE CIDER!
@@NGTGO I was the recipient of the cider!
@@darmandez I was the Farmer that Picked the Apple That made the Cider in a Past Life
Patrick McGoohan was one of the best murderers in the series.
He was a great actor and was good in everything he ever did.
He also contributed to writing episodes but didn’t ask for credit. Class act.
He was in four episodes I think, great actor.
@@TheGodParticlethat’s right, because he did a couple of episodes in the newer series. The one with Rue McClanahan was a stitch, lots of fun!
Except writing. My god, have you seen Last Salute to the Commodore? It felt like a Columbo nightmare...
@@Olaxan4I liked it
McGoohan won the Emmy for best guest role in a Drama for his performance.
This was Patrick McGoohan's (Rumford) first appearance on Columbo. He became good friends with Peter Falk and subsequently appeared in, wrote, or directed episodes and specials for the next 25 years.
This is my least favorite episode 😮
(5:57) For those of you who are curious, the six-pointed star with the "A" is a patch unique to the 6th Army--last issued during the Korean War. Given his age, the colonel would have fought in the South Pacific during WWII.
You should pass that information to the watch it for days channel. She does extremely deep analysis of episodes and would probably find it useful information.
@@macmcleod1188 Ironically, I was one of the original posters on her channel. If you go back to her season 1 stuff, you'll find I've posted loquacious breakdowns of license plate flubs and such. However, she's made it clear that she objects to such things so I've respected her wishes and found other outlets for my powers of observation.
But I appreciate you thinking of me.
@WifeWantsAWizard ah! Well alright, then!
Cracks me up how Rumford is sleeping right on the made up bed, fully clothed.
That’s what they do so they’re ready quicker in the morning
I think he just collapsed on the bed that evening after doggedly searching all night.
That's a boot camp thing so you can be ready faster. Also on deployment when you're QRF (Quick React Force) because you could be called to respond immediately to something. For a Colonel in the States to do it is..... well lets just say quirky. Also, he treats Captain Loomis like a straight up boot which I never liked. Officers are more cordial to each other than that. But for the sake of this guy's character I accept that he treats most people like that who he views as below him. Columbo is funny because he turns up with a lower rank than Loomis and looking like he just rolled out of bed. Yet he NEVER crosses him except for that little jab of "I guess you could call that a uniform." But he picked up on Columbo's intellect VERY quickly and saw him as the equal and the threat that he was. All in all very well done.
we used to do it all the time
*_"On,"_* because he definitely isn't *_in_* the bed.🤣
Peter Falk and Patrick McGoohan always made a great acting team in Columbo.
Yet another bit from one of my favourite episodes. And that 'dorm' is such an unusual location. It's hard to say that for a Columbo episode as so many of the episodes are set in unusual looking locations. But this one have always struck me as something truely unusual.
It's The Citadel, and it's quite a way away from Southern California. Really weird is besides the payphones everything there looks basically the same as in the episode when I was there just a decade ago
@@legoeasycompanymy son is there now. It is quite the place.
@@Deadbuck73 I wish the best for him, hopefully he can get the band of gold I couldn't afford.
@@legoeasycompany it sure does not come easy. I hope you are doing well.
I was in 2nd Battalion, Regt/Band Company , Class of 1984
Columbo is looking particularly shabby. Trench coat and a non-button shirt. I respect it.
He's so.... No. I shall not say.
@@funnylittlecreature Go for it, this is a safe space.
My foreign born wife asked me, "If Colombo knows the guy is a murderer why does he call him "sir?"
What should he call him el Diablo😂
Where my wife grew up, police don't address suspected murderers as "Sir." Myself, I consider it part of Columbo's charm and why I watched them all several times.
I think for all the episodes Columbo was never disrespectful, and it made bad guys more relaxed around him, never seeing him as smart or a threat. Until it was too late.
Tell her it's because he's very democratic.
At the beginning of this clip Col Rumford shows he is just as good at detecting as Columbo. Just like Columbo he notices dirt from the vent orders his sergeant to search it. Only problem is Columbo got there first. Makes one wonder how Columbo climbed up to the vent and open it to remove the cider. I don't think we see him doing it on camera even in the full episode. Columbo doesn't look like the climbing sort of man.
Oh yeah, he's canonically afraid of heights! Climbing up there would have been at the very least an uncomfortable experience for him.
Well, he does climb on occasion. Down a tree, in "Forgotten Lady."
If Columbo can fall head over heels down a steep hillside (saw him -actually him- do it in another ep), he can climb to a vent easily.
"Check the vent."
"CHECK THE VENT!"
Patrick vented hes imposter
I say this to my wife whenever she's hunting for something she's lost.
@@permafrostyxColombo called an emergency meeting
Always wonderful acting on Columbo. Always. And all the subtleties. Like the look of disappointment on Lt Columbo’s face when the colonel says he’s not sorry, that he’d do it again. It’s only an unspoken expression but it’s powerful.
I love Patrick McGoohan and I think it's weird and interesting that after playing arguably the most rebellious hero in fiction in The Prisoner he went on to pretty much exclusively play evil authoritarian characters.
Lesson: If you're doing something severely illegal, and you see others doing wrong, just forget that nonsense and move on. You don't want something connecting you to improbable (yet damning) evidence.
The colonel couldn't let it go. it's in his controlling, demanding nature. Makes him a good drill sergeant but a terrible murderer.
He couldn’t help himself. The idiot was ruled by his emotions.
I will be sure to apply that advice.
Better yet, don't do something illegal in the first place.
It was so much fuss over some cider! The elusive cider!
Patrick was the best as the villain in Columbo. Each time so different from the other and the chemistry with Peter was just fantastic. Great friendship created great art.
Used to watch this all the time one of my old school favorite 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Bruno Kirby! ("And if you DO... And if you DO..." et al)
and apparently his own father is playing the sergeant?
Eagle-eyed are you. He's much more likeable here than he was in Good Morning Vietnam.
4:48 The Colonel was clearly rattled here 😂😂😂
It's Steinmetz!
Rip Bruno Kirby. Died in 2006. Loved that guy. Was some complications from leukemia.
The young Clemenza.
"Yes, sir. The Dickens' Cider."
In this episode the lesson is if you are going to set up for a murder, don't draw attention to yourself like Col Rumford did when he became obsessed with the cider hanging out the window at dawn when he was jamming the cleaning rag into the front of the cannon, and he could only see it hanging out the window from that particular spot. A bit like in the real world, where drug runners break the speed limit, attracting the road cops attention. If they stuck to the speed limit they would have gotten away with it.
A lot get pulled over in 'drug interdiction' routes (frequented by crooks) they use sniffer dogs around their cars & the like. But I get your point, fact is most crooks aren't the sharpest tools in the shed - hence why they had to resort to criminality.
Bit like certain demographics walking around with their paints down around their ankles - effectively hogtying themselves...
@@artmallory970"Certain demographics"? Which ones? And why are you equating them to criminals and drug runners?
@@chrismanuel9768 Stereotypes, chris, stereotypes.
'Content of their character', right?
Soak it in cider 🍺
He DID turn them in, in the end...
"Go to it!"
Columbo is on alllllll the cider.
"It Had To Be Done"
I forget why did he do it?
@@evilmieraSo they wouldn't sell his young man emporium.. er, uh... military training camp where he gets to... discipline young men.
Now I want some cider🍺🍎
Columbo always had great reveals.
2:08 a young Bruno Kirby (clemenza ) from the godfather 😮
“the vent. Sir?? CHECK THE VENT!!”
Rolled up the wooly and I watched columbo
A favorite episode...............
There is not much I can add to the comments but to echo the Colonel incriminated himself by placing himself at the cannon the night before the murder by making a fuss about the cider, when his alibi was that he was sleeping at the time until he was awoke by his orderly. Then again he didn't expect a detective as meticulous as Columbo to be investigating it. He expected they would just assume after going through the motions, the old gun just gave out and it was just a tragic accident. Just like Columbo's Sergeant Kramer did.
The Prisoner as a Commandant! Irony!
Love Columbo! 💙☀️
Looks like the general is about to become.....the prisoner
Yes sir!!!!
Wasnt the murder the King in Braveheart who threw a man out of the castle?
Filmed at The Citadel in the early 70s.
well i had beer last sunday,....
idk,... i might have some tomarrow....
2:20 I thought the guy was dead 😄Who relaxes like that
it was a fantastic episode . . .
Legend, has it that the cider jar is hanging there to this very day.
9:20 I know it's the 1970s but that's some horrible ADR
They should have tried making their own booze.
That guy looks like a King of England
King or Colonel, six of one, half dozen of the other.
Yes. He played King Longshanks in Mel Gibson's Braveheart.
2:02 thought the kid in the left looked like wil wheaton
👍👍👍
what season, not remembering it.
s4 ep3
loved patrick acting
0:01 Isn't that cadet the annoying guy from _Good Morning Vietnam?_
SO many ads on TH-cam now! I’ve gotta cut the cord on these guys. TV has less commercials than these guys.
I don't see any commercials. Ohh wait, that's probably because I have premium
There's this magical invention called ad blocker. If TH-cam is keeping you from watching because of them, then there's another magical invention called Easy TH-cam Video Downloader Express.
Get Premium; it's absolutely worth it.
Yeah it so frickin annoying. Enough already with these commercials can't even enjoy anything anymore.
VISTO ,
Strict no.6
Why were they hanging out the cider in the first place?
Apparently to ferment it according to the episode.
1:22 those haircuts are hardly military. - unsat! And it is never "six thirty" - it's O630. They needed a military guy to trim this up. Still, gotta love Columbo. RIP Peter Falk.
2 or 3 nights per week,,,....?
nah,... no Sir,... there is things and ppl that they are hiding
this seems so lame... who hangs cider in a window? how could the whole floor be in on it and no one know? how could they all know and all freely admit to something that would get them severely discharged or kicked out to columbo who had no authority over them? entertaining but makes little sense. McGoohan was good though
My take on that is that they hated the Colonel as he was a strict disciplinarian and always on their case, and they knew by owing up to the cider they would place him tampering with the cannon the night before it exploded killing the victim, and it would be enough evidence for Columbo to arrest him and get him off their backs. The next commander to take over running the academy from Rumford would probably just let them off with a warning given the circumstances.
Also, homemade cider needs to be hung out like that, they said something about it in the episode, and they always bring it in before morning call, which is why no one ever saw it until the General spotted it at a time he normally wouldnt have been awake in a place which only from there it could be seen. Cadets do these things all the time and went with Columbo on that as the only people who knew were the Cadets, which had already been keeping the secret. Columbo, who wouldnt tell but he does take it from them, And the one guy who probably wouldnt say anything or was also in on it which would make sense how he wasnt trying to hard to find it.
@@martinfinn1550. And he was trying to frame one of them for the murder.
They should remake Columbo using Lizzo as the main character. Instead of always eating a sucker, she could always be gnawing on a big turkey leg.
They went for 60 minutes but they had to condense them to under 10 minutes by taking out unnecessary and repetitive content because the old TVs couldn’t hold anything over 10 minutes.
The mondo Columbus shows are very short always less than 10 minutes because of the primitive mondo TVs they had back then. The old old old TVs could not hold more than 10 minutes of show as they used CRT Catholic Ray Tubs technology and non Dylan Mulvaney CLT or Claw Technology. No harm no fowl. They tried Dylan Mulvaney to shorten the shows advertising and tried to produce a non racist TV set with Motorola involvement with flypaper control and Dylan Mulvaney CEO.
Transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney abandoned by Bud Lights and faced too much bullying and transphobia. The proof is in the pudding. It’s all part of the non racist discovering process
Boooootttt
Back off your meds again, I see.
🙄
"Columbo is too short because of the trans agenda" is certainly... a take
Posting this same stupid comment but with different numbers on multiple videos. Please, for the safety of all, take your meds.
