| #1 Posted on 10.11.03 1612.16 | Instant Rating: 8.65 | Bravo is playing the pre-series "Columbo" movies over the next two Tuesdays.
Look for "second pilot" Ransom for a Dead Man (1971) (imdb.com) TOMORROW - in my neck of the woods, it's on at 1500.
The "original" Columbo movie pilot Prescription: Murder (1967) (imdb.com), in which Falk's performance is so wildly different from what it eventually became that you'll shit your pants, airs NEXT Tuesday in the normal "Columbo" slot (which, for me, is 1300 weekdays). It was based on a 1962 play (columbo-site.freeuk.com) (also written and produced by Levinson & Link) which toured the US and Canada most of the year. This play was actually a retooling of the FIRST appearance of Columbo - a one hour "Chevy Mystery Show" episode called Enough Rope (columbo100.freeuk.com) which aired 31 July 1960.
This is more than you've EVER needed to know about one of my favourite old shows still airing regularly. Thanks, Bravo! DAH DAH DAH DAH DAH, DAAH
