Funniest Columbo moments?
My personal favorites among those that come to mind are the "special recipe" chili exchange in "Swan Song" and the scene with Larry Storch in "Negative Reaction."
shareMy faves are when he stumbled down a steep hill, and when he had to wait in long lines for building permits. Forgot the episode names.
shareGood choices.
I think the steep hill incident might be when he was trying to get to a car in which a booby-trapped box of cigars had exploded, I think that episode was titled "Short Fuse."
When he was driving the driving instructor who got so frustrated w/him, he walked back in negative reaction. Another was when the police department picked him up to have him go to the gun range, he was so overdue and would not go on his own.
shareThe scene of Columbo walking-running-falling down the steep hill is from "The Greenhouse Jungle.
I think one of the funniest Columbo moments happens in "A Case of Immunity." It's the running gag of Columbo accidentally stepping on Hassan Salah's robe. Every time you hear the tearing sound as he walks away, the look on Hassan's face is hilarious.
Jesus is the Son of God and my Lord and savior. Pretty cool.
Ahh. Thanks for the correction. You're right, that crime involved a car being pushed off a roadway and into a ravine.
I haven't seen "Case of Immunity" in ages, and will have to watch that one again.
No the steep hill episode is the one where an older uncle set up a pretend kidnapping of his nephew, with his nephew so that he could get his hands on his trust fund, but then the uncle ended up killing him for real and tried to frame his nephew's estranged wife. I only know because I watched it again the other day but cannot remember the name of it.
