One of my favorite television franchises continues to be a big draw around the world, according to this article.
Why so popular? Columbo star and executive producer Peter Falk has a theory:
"Stepping aside and looking at it objectively, I can say that it does represent quality television," he said. "We broke our asses to try and avoid smoke and mirrors. We had no car chases, no cheap sex jokes and very few fake clues and some genuinely unpredictable and very entertaining surprise endings. And that, in all modesty, really is in the realm of some of the classic Agatha Christie stories."
The article also mentions that a new Columbo movie is in the works.
