I agree YM...it really wasn't all that bad...but I think that had to do with the fact that the great Donald Pleasence was in it. The last clue wasn't too shabby either.
And I agree that Kate Mulgrew is not the image I have in my head of what Columbo's wife would look like.
And according to the Columbo Phile there were 4 titles...Mrs. Columbo, Kate Columbo, Kate the Detective and Kate Loves a Mystery...and that was all in just one year! There was also mention of her wanting to divorce Columbo!!! Blasphemy!!!
Cassa-it certainly is blasphemy. As we
recall from "Troubled Waters" they won
the trip from a Catholic organization they belonged to, so being good Italian Catholics (I presume she is Italian also) they couldn't get divorced.
