I'm sure I will! Usually when Columbo is shown in reruns here, they only show the 70's episodes (might be a tv rights issue or something), so it will be interesting to see Columbo in different decades, as well.
I think it might be the weakest yet, I have to say it's definitely entertaining but the teflon nature of the Shelby's is getting a little tiresome.
You'll see what I mean, great use of Radiohead's Pyramid song in the final episode though, Peaky does a great job with the music it has to be said.
My Wife said is it becoming a victim of it's own success and I said I think it might.
Also Brody's Italian gangster is laying that Brando Vito Coreleone impression a little too thick for my liking.
Definitely worth a watch, I hope S5 which may or may not be the last can offer more uncertainty and maybe some long lasting big upsets for the Shelby clan that resonate rather than just temporary setbacks.
It's starting to remind me of Sons of Anarchy which took until it's last season to see the downfall of the main character.
As an aside, what do you make of Last Salute to the Commodore? I think that's the one episode that stands out from the rest for most people.
Edit: Hehe, forgot this! @bondjames
Some fine episodes in those later seasons. I greatly enjoy Columbo Goes to College, Agenda for Murder (Patrick McGoohan is just fantastic in this one!), Caution: Murder Can Be Hazardous to Your Health and A Bird in the Hand. Peter Falk is mostly in top form. As I mentioned elsewhere, while valid and interesting in its own way, his more cartoonish, arrogant late-seventies take on the role --probably related to the change in showrunner, as the book The Columbo Phile seems to suggest-- isn't quite my cup of tea, and while he plays the role in that style in some of the nineties episodes, he still comes across as more likable and less arrogant than before. Perhaps it's got something to do with the fact he is older.
Also, in the first comeback episode, Columbo Goes to the Guillotine, he has a great little reintroduction. And the scene has such tremendously stylish cinematography.
You'll probably know about one key family member by now and I don't want say anymore as it might lead you think something.
From what I've heard it was originally intended for 5 series but Steven Knight has now said it could stretch to 6.
The ending definitely suggests a change, I guess we'll see, I'm sure you'll enjoy it though it certainly wasn't rubbish.
Der Himmel ist ein Platz auf Erde - the first installment of a Nürnberg Tatort where the dead person killed in a car while being unfaithful to his wife send the police into very suspect situations the end is very much sadder and personal as this affair might have looked at the beginning.
As Always the average Tatort, the longest running Crime TV show in Germany still delivers plenty of great suspense and wicked sense of humor.
First episode was great, I am seeing it all. Bit strange the Kents are called Sara and Eben.
That’s a huge character difference when you think about it!
Yes, they were all advanced supermen. I wish I had gotten to see this as a kid.
Nice to see some love for The Adventures of Superman, which to this day remains my favorite live action interpretation of this character. George Reeves is my favorite Clark/Superman.
The first and second seasons are my favorites with the wonderful black and white cinematography. The first season has several episodes which could fall into film noir category. Some of my favorites are : The Secret of Superman, The Evil Three, The Haunted Lighthouse, Panic In The Sky and The Face and The Voice.
Of the color episodes I like the last season the most.
I should really buy these i have not seen them in sometime, I do have this...
...which had a slightly different tone to the series, Superman vs The Mole Men is rather good.
I have all the episodes to Smallville, Superboy and all the Fleischer cartoons and modern animated series and movies, scratching my head why I have not bought the George Reeves show.
Its included in a few Superman boxsets, I have it on the Anthology boxset...
Great Bluray boxset which is quite cheap for what you get.
Crappy title for this drama but it's pretty damn good.
We sure we want to dismiss Norton as a potential Bond candidate post Craig?
I honestly think that Dan may be the first Bond to actively be involved in casting his successor, considering how involved he's been in the trajectory of these films already, and how close he and Barbara are. I can only hope that Bond 25 is a conclusive end and, like with Nolan's Batman, EON start fresh with a new guy who doesn't have to play Craig's Bond or anything like that. Best to clear the slate and go back to more standalone adventures and double down on the escapism and bizarreness.
Does it bode well?
He looks the part and is damn right terrifying in BBC's superlative Happy Valley.
He's certainly shown some range in his roles, for me it's him or Tom Hughes.
By the way, have you seen Hughes in The Game? I'm interested to see it, just to see how he works in a spy setting and story.
Yes it does actually.
Saw the new Death in paradise as well, the new fella did fine.
Got it for $10 and thought I'd give it a try since I hadn't seen it since it was broadcast in 1977. You know how you see something when you were young and you hate it, but when you see it again much later you can actually like it seeing it with new and more mature eyes?
Well, this isn't one of those times. Utter crap.
Oh well, the used DVD & record place gets another set and I'll get $2 back. ;)
Love the Michael York film I have it on dvd though never watched the TV show of Logans Run not even sure it aired in the UK. The actor on the cover looks familiar trying to remember where I recognise him from.
