Columbo: Complete Series [DVD]

Product Information

Of course, it’s agony that so many guest stars (including Peter Falk himself) will not be able to contribute their recollections of the series personally, but there should still be plenty of excellent background intel to satisfy serious fans. While a Japanese Blu-ray boxset has been available for some years, its prohibitive pricing has placed it out of reach of most fans.

The gotcha scene involves being alone on a mountain road…until a group of cyclists turn up, who turn out to be undercover police officers …. The thing I’ve been hoping for is that it’ll include the Chevy Mystery Hour episode with Bert Freed (and I’ve been reply-guying Kino-Lorber about it just to get it on their radar).

There were some archived interviews with Columbo guest stars planned, and those seem to be out as well. I need to take a look at the whole series from the beginning, it will be like seeing the episodes for the first time at this point. Thank you Kino Lorber and Columbophile and even if it’s in the 300 range the inclusion of special features makes it still a must have for me at least, in fact I’d expect it to be in that ballpark.

According to Frank Tarzi, VP of Acquisitions at Kino Lorber, there are two Columbo boxsets in the works: one featuring the ‘classic era’ 1968-78 episodes; and the second containing the 1989-2003 revival episodes. I have many Kino Lorber blu-rays in my collection including: “Scavenger Hunt”, “Cabin Boy” and “Mad Max” and they do amazing work from cover to core. I have reviewed the various comments and watched all of the episodes many times and sometimes while listening to episodes as described on the Columbophile Blog. If you’re amongst those many fans, this week’s news that the series will get a Blu-ray release this year may well have set your heart a-flutter.Daniel, that would be great, but “Enough Rope” has been out of public circulation for decades, available for viewing only during occasional special screenings by the UCLA Film and Television Archives (last showing was April 2021). Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ. The people producing these boxsets haven’t promised interviews or commentary from Spielberg or any of the stars who played murderers. Kepple’s subliminal cut version be viewed in an exceptionally warm room while downing scoops of Royal Iranian Beluga Caviar. More than merely releasing the series in glorious HD, the new boxsets will provide the sort of extras fans have been clamouring for since Columbo was first made available on DVD in the early 2000s.
