Columbo trivia: Patrick McGoohan and Peter Falk very much enjoyed working with each other ("our acting styles just clicked" Falk remarked). He played a villain more than once and also directed a couple episodes.

Was the murderer on the very first Columbo with Peter Falk (the character existed before, but of course became synonymous with Falk). The TV movie Prescription: Murder was meant as a standalone, but was successful so a series was developed. It is interesting to see this debut performance, Columbo is not so disheveled, many of the Columboisms are yet to come. A must watch for fans.

Many consider Jack Cassidy the quintessential Columbo villain. He guest starred as a murderer 3 times.
