Columbo VHS
Peter Falk's Lieutenant Columbo was one of the most endearing characters in television history, a scraggly police detective who drove a dilapidated car, wore a cruddy raincoat and seemed to bumble his way through each case. Yet when it came to solving homicides, no one was better. The long-running series was introduced on NBC in 1971. Each episode runs about 75 min.
