Re: Forgotten Lady...reference to popular culture

mark
I noticed in Forgotten Lady, there are a couple scenes where the butler and his wife are watching Johnny Carson on tv and i think it's even mentioned by Columbo at some point. Is this a shameless plug or just referencing popular culture at the time. I think Columbo was on ABC in the 70's, while Carson show was NBC if i'm not mistaken (so did they have to pay or get permission to air?)


I think Columbo was on NBC in the 1970's.
