    I remember the first time my wife and I watched The Wire, there's a scene in season 2 or 3 where Reddick is taking a late night phone call and happens to be shirtless, and both my wife and I were like "Jesus Christ!"

    you wouldn't know it because he's always wearing a suit but the man's torso could cut glass

    That bit where she talks about the statue of David and concludes that it doesn’t have an anus “because Michelangelo ran out of time or maybe the model didn’t have an anus” just ruins me every time I see it.

    In isolation, episode 4 was a little weak (especially compared to how amazing Episode 3 was).

    When you look at 4 and 5 together, I think they're very strong and tell a full story. 4 felt a lot like setup but the payoff was spectacular.

    I can't draft up a top five list of Columbo episodes, as I haven't seen all of them yet.

    But "Suitable for Framing" is the front-runner for being in that top five, as Ross Martin plays such an incredible asshole in the episode.

    I'd say

    S2E6 - "A Stitch in Time" with Leonard Nimoy
    S2E8 - "Double Shock" with Martin Landau
    S3E7 - "Swan Song" with Johnny Cash
    S6E1 - "Fade Into Murder" with William Shatner
    S7E2 - "Murder Under Glass" with Louis Jordan

    He was the murder four different times and each one slapped.

    In one he was just Number 6 from The Prisoner. He even does the “be seeing you,” several times.

    It has an uncanny ability to plow past things that other shows would have dragged out for an entire season, leading to what's effectively a season of season finales.

    And it also managed to stick the landing which felt fucking impossible in the lead-up.

    I initially hated the ending but have turned around on it.
    Given everything that happened beforehand it felt kind of weird for the characters to just give up on making eternity something people would want to experience, but I can see how the creators of the show would rather make the final episode of their show about dead people be about death than about them fixing the Good Place.

    I am tragically forced to bump Charlie Cale down exactly one point from a 0 to a -1 on the Cop scale for association with a member of the FBI. She can still redeem that point hy the end of the season.
