I started sledgehammer but it was dated

I'm currently binge watching dogs behaving very badly and a show off box sets called disappeared which is true life stories of people who, well, disappeared.
I've seen some of Sledgehammer. Can't remember much about it...

On a similar-ish theme, I watched the Leslie Nielsen series 'Police Squad' quite recently and the three 'Naked Gun' films based on it. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it all. Some very amusing bits.

For reasons both boring and embarrassing, I've never watched Columbo in the correct order.

I went: Series 2> Series 1> Pilots> Series 3 onwards.

I have the actual first one lined up for a new run, maybe for tomorrow. :)

Watched Prescription: Murder.

I love Columbo so much. I think nothing I've ever watched matches the tension that it delivers pretty much without fail. I'm usually watching the clock if something is 90 minutes long.

I watched the second pilot, which seems to be considered the official pilot.

Really enjoyed the Robert Culp ep in series 1. An unusual murder in that it's committed only in a moment of anger.

That pesky contact lens...

All the Robert culp ones are good

Being caught in your boot looking for a lens only he thought was missing was tough to explain
