Seems to me there may have been a Monk episode with his brother???

In 2007 I thought I remembered a Columbo episode from the 70s, but turned out it was different show. Anyone know what show this was from? (I know the answer now.)

I made this post in 2007:

But there is another episode I remember that didn't show up. In this one just before the victim died he unplugged the TV and the alarm clock at the same time. Columbo kept trying to figure out why the victim did this. Eventually Columbo got the TV show that was running at the time the TV and clock were unplugged. It was a news cast doing a weather report and referring to the sun, from this Columbo figured out the victim was trying to say his son was the killer.....

I can clearly remember this, could I be mistaken? Were there some episodes from the 70s not released??

That was an Ellery Queen episode - maybe the pilot?

Right, I should look this up and watch it again.
