Columbo
Many criminals made the mistake of underestimating Lieutenant Columbo, a homicide investigator with a crumpled trench-coat and a beat-up car, who certainly acted as an incompetent bumbler. But he was so polite to every suspect, and he talked so much about his wife (who we never got to see on any episode, but who many believe later had her own show, starring Kate Mulgrew, later of Star Trek: Voyager fame) that he lulled even the shrewdest murderer into a false sense of security. And although the audience had witnessed the murder in the beginning of each episode, it was still a surprise to see what mistakes the killers had made during the seemingly perfect murder.
A mystery writer suspects her niece's husband of murdering her, and she exacts revenge by asphyxiating him in her house safe.
Food critic Paul Gerard, who has been extorting money from restaurant owners in exchange for good reviews, murders one when threatened with exposure.
An executive secretary for a TV network kills her boss and lover after he broke up with her and passed her over for a promotion she believes she deserves. Lt. Columbo is on the case.
A behavioral psychologist whose wife died under suspicious circumstances trains his two Doberman dogs to kill her lover using the command word 'rosebud' through a telephone. Lt. Columbo is investigating.
An Irish poet and writer who's also an undercover Irish Republican Army agent murders an arms dealer in Los Angeles who turns traitorous. Lieutenant Columbo investigates.
