Peter Falk RIP (Columbo)
Just one more thing… TV legend Peter Falk passed away on June 23. Like watching the Matlock series, I would spend hours watching reruns of Columbo with my mother on TV. I always enjoyed Falk’s portrayal of the disheveled Detective Columbo. (Note: Falk was so much like Columbo that the clothes were his own.)
I admired the way Columbo used his brains over force to figure out stuff. While he played himself as a simple blue collar guy, Columbo was actually very similar to Sherlock in the way he figures out cases. He used the shambling and confused act as a ruse.
Falk was a character actor throughout his career. He did a lot of strange roles in his lifetime, such as Corky Remano and Made with Jon Favreau.
Anyway, he will be missed. RIP Columbo.
