Wow! You guys have come up with great ideas to make a police - gospel music industry corruption - small aircraft - family quarrels - funeral industry shenanigans - series for TV. Should it be on HBO or Bravo or on one of the broadcast networks?
Just saw this (again) and thought the whole episode was amazing. The chemistry between Falk and Cash (this is where i got to like Cash's music) was fantastic to watch and i really felt sorry for Mr Brown, his wife was not a very nice person.
I also dont think that any confession would have been made, Brown would have enjoyed life too much of he had gotten away with it. More a case of Columbo suggesting a way for the court to look a bit more favourably on the case.
