The Texture of Columbo

TVC 580.4: A special roundtable discussion devoted to Columbo, including the original NBC series (1971-1978); Prescription: Murder, the play by Richard Levinson and William Link that begat Columbo (and which eventually led to the two Columbo pilots, Prescription: Murder and Ransom for a Dead Man); and how the ABC revival (1989-2003) holds up, compared to the original series. Joining us on the panel are Emmy Award-winning writer, producer, director, playwright, and author Joseph Dougherty (thirtysomething, Pretty Little Liars, Saving Grace, Chester Bailey); David Koenig, author of Shooting Columbo: The Lives and Deaths of TV’s Rumpled Detective; writer/producer Dan Farren (Story Salon); and Tony Figueroa of This Week in TV History.
