This one in my opinion is one of the better newer "Columbo"s . This one is a lot better than the ones they have been making now. I liked Rip Torn's performance in this one. This one is entitled "Death Hits The Jackpot". I really thought this one is one of there better efforts. I liked the ending with the "Columbo" theme music at the end. They should make them like this , a very good "Columbo" film. I liked the chemisry between Rip Torn and Peter Falk. I liked the scene where Columbo is having a hard time getting out of his car , that was very fun to see.
I wonder when the hell they will do another one , I hope sometime soon. I hope Peter Falk will have the energy to do another one. I saw Peter Falk on "Larry King Live" , that was pretty fun to see. Peter Falk was talking about his new film "The Thing About My Folks" , this film still has not made it to Seattle. I would like to see this movie whenever it comes out, maybe one day.I enjoy Peter Falk's work a lot. I hope he will make more "Columbo" films , he is a really a great actor. I hope to see him do another one some day soon. Thanks for reading everybody , I will sign out for now.
I really like this episode also, especially because (to me) the horror of the crime. It's almost unimaginable for a family member to plot and execute the death of another (I know it's often done in real life, but it's usually 2nd degree, not 1st degree).
