Vento makes some true obsevations...but...for me the funniest running sequence in Sex and the Married Detective is the turn around play where the various sex therapists ask the lieutenant for his advice and with little aplomb he assumes their professional persona.
I have to agree, "Negative Reaction"
was the best. Don't forget about the
scene where he asks Galesko for
a pin-up for his dog, and the horrible
photos taken at the funeral.
I've mentioned this before (a couple of times I think)- THE funniest scene ever is not performed by Columbo himself, but a murderer. In "Columbo Goes to College" one of the killers does a dead-on impersonation of Columbo ("You know what I gotta do - I gotta go see the coach's wife!!") ANY Columbo fan will smile ear-to-ear no matter how many times you've seen it.
