"Columbo" isn't the typical detective whodunit TV show. On most detective shows, viewers don't know who committed the crime until the detective pieces the clues together and figures it out. On this show, however, viewers see the crime unfold at the beginning of most episodes, including who the perpetrator is. The mystery and fun for viewers is trying to spot the clues that will lead Lt. Columbo (Peter Falk) to discover the culprit and watching the tricks he uses to get a confession. Episodes of "Columbo" were movie-length and ran sporadically on multiple networks during its run.

Scott Sandell Los Angeles Times Director Jeffrey Reiner and writer Michael Alaimo deftly weave together the show's traditional elements with a contemporary setting that points up how un-hip Columbo is. Apr 22, 2020 Full Review Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly The student villains are tiresome brats, but [Peter] Falk is subtle and funny; Columbo Goes to College is a surprisingly solid comeback for this durable character. Rated: B+ Apr 21, 2020 Full Review George Bass Guardian This is what makes these stories so watchable: the detective's humility. Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film The stories may be similar... yet they remain engaging thanks to [Peter] Falk's charisma and some first class scripting.
