I love Columbo and have seen every episode dozens of times. IMO, every episode is a 10 Star...except this one, it is the worst.
The annoying carousel style music theme kept going on and on throughout the entire episode. Every piece of music is over orchestrated and detached from the storyline. They even included a classical waltz, but was re-orchestrated to sound corny and trite.
And FISHER STEVENS...probably the most obnoxious, unlikeable and no talent actor that was ever on the series. I do not know how he got the lead.
I would have given this a 1 Star, but it is always a joy to see Nan Martin and Steven Hill. The only savior of a pathetic episode.
