anyone watch 'Monk'?
Yes, I liked "Monk".
Another good one is "New Tricks".
And "A Touch of Frost".
All of these are fun to watch and I hope to watch them again. (on Netflix probably)

I don't believe his first name was ever revealed although on pieces of identification Frank was visible on them. There was a Mrs. Colombo who was never seen.

I don't know that the name Frank was ever used, just saw it on pieces of ID he had.

The camera would do a close up of it. I believe I once saw it on his license, also a name tag he was wearing at a crime scene.

He always introduced himself as Detective Columbo.

The Sweeney. Great police drama set in the 70's London. Get my dad in front of that and you can get the tea on (85 year old frail man).


Game shows on repeat, Challenge TV, that's the one. Family fortunes from the 80s or 90s, play your cards right, bullseye and my all time favoirte, takeshi's castle.
