It's probably somewhere among the first COLUMBO moments I ever saw, so that's a big extra reason for me to like it.

4/5 of years ago...pre Netflix etc...I was remembering that stumble and was trying to find it...to my amazement it came up as 'Columbo hill" on Youtube...and was one of the very first Columbo scenes I shared with my then 8/9 yr old daughter...we howled with laughter and still do.
"the quickest way down"...lol
having said Greenhouse Jungle is a major stumble in and of itself....terrible episode in my opinion...but I digress
