The appeal is 100% about peter Falk playing off the guest in an episode. Like, you have a parade of great character actors up against Columbo and watching the two of them interact is what’s fun.
Sure every episode has largely the same structure, but the episode with Leonard Nemoy’s utterly cold calculating doctor is very different from the warm likeable winemaker played by Donald Pleasance.
Also the shonen manga mind game resolution to most episodes is really fun, IMO.

the patrick mcgoohan episodes are dependable. also the john cassavetes and johnny cash episodes rule.

The structure is really good because watching columbo solve these murders is a suspenseful mystery on its own, too. It subverts the cozy mystery structure by telling you the solution from the start so it has to engage you with good acting and clever scripts

I don’t know what that is other than maybe an anime and knowing that it sounds like something perverts do to pregnant women

I watched this and the best part is when the waiters are making the sippy noises after drinking the bad expensive wine
