Yep, for example "Fade in to Murder," an episode with William Shatner. Also "Murder by the Book," "A Friend in Deed," etc. The writers played lots of little tricks on the audience with the show. But also sometimes the Lt. simply asked procedural questions to somebody who wasn't involved.
- mbg721 5y ago(Again, no blockbuster spoilers that I know of, but be aware) I guess in Murder By The Book he sits down and asks the victim's wife if she can come up with anything. Fade Into Murder had the whole blackmail thing going on in the background. Where did Columbo hound someone who wasn't Robert Culp in A Friend In Deed? He was a little squirrely getting the private-spy's info at the water fountain (and the whole ice-cream/swing encounter) but that's all I can think of.
- themodelplumber 5y agoGood q, I might be remembering a different episode which is always possible with actors like Culp. Will look into this issue, your ticket ID is @ny01dp0r7 Ticket update: He uses "just one more thing" on Mrs. Halperin, but she was not the murderer.
