    The way your father looked at your mom and you was so much full of love and joy. It was very cruel for his 2nd wife to isolate him from his beloved family, it’s certainly against his will. You are beautiful and strong lady Catherine, I deeply respect your courage and efforts for fighting for the family rights and improving the humanity.

    From London, watching Columbo right now...every Sunday it's all day Columbo on 5USA, I've always admired Peter Falk...a first class actor, I was reading your father's wikipedia and I'm outraged with what you went through a normal person wouldn't do this to someone's children...but you were blessed to have him as a father I've been enjoying your father's work since the early 70's and I'm still watching him today, Columbo my favourite character..may your father R.I.E.P

    I never miss an opportunity to watch episodes of Columbo whenever I find them on tv. It was my favorite show during the years it was originally broadcast. At age 80, I still find it marvelously entertaining.

    Thank you for sharing your father with everyone who loved Columbo(who wouldn't?) A lot of baby boomers whose fathers were absent, distant, or self involved grew up with him as a positive role model. Your mother was and is stunning as are you. God bless you and your foundation.

      Kathleen Wells I know, and I was trying to streamline like "Prescription fir Murder", and they actually had another actor playing Columbo in a "Remake". Who would even create a "Fake Columbo". That would be like replacing Clark Gable in "Gone With The Wind." I consider it sacreligous.

    I miss watching his role as Columbo very much. It's heartbreaking to know you were barred from caring for your father when he was ill. He would have loved to have you there for him. It just breaks my heart. Elderly from Korea

    @polinavader486 3 роки тому +2

    Not so long ago, during the pandemic I discovered Columbo. My father was watching it and when I asked who was that clumsy but quite charming man in the old raincoat, he said: "Well, that's Columbo, my favorite detective series, watched it in your age. I just fell in love with the character, the series is truly a masterpiece for all time and all ages.
    The great actor brought his personality to the character and made him look lively, that kind smiling face is just unforgettable.
    But knowing the fact that such a happy family broke up, and a loving daughter you are was not allowed to take care of your father... It just wounds me.
    Thank you for sharing those photos! Love from Russian fans of Columbo 💞
    Stay safe!

    By far, my favorite actor of all time right alongside Lucille Ball. Not a stalker, but when I had business in Los Angeles (from my mid-20's), I would drive down Roxbury imagining seeing your Dad or Lucy walking down the street! Today, I look after my 86 year old Mom and our Sundays are filled with Colombo marathons........

    Thank You Miss Falk for creating this award winning Video and Documentary of your Blessed Father Mr. Peter Michael Falk! My Wife for Life and I LOVE, LOVE and LOVE Your Daddy Peter Michael Falk especially in Columbo!! I remember quite well as a little boy in the 1970's and 80's watching Your Father in Columbo and my Grandmother LOVED, LOVED, LOVED Your Daddy in Columbo and she gave me my LOVE, LOVE and LOVE for Your Dad as well. My wife and I recently watched today, Saturday, June 13th, 2020 an episode of Columbo where your amazing and highly intelligent Daddy solved the case from a man's bite and teeth impression from a piece of cheese and a piece of gum - simply amazing and great sleuth detective work where even the criminal was amazed that Mr. Columbo solved the case by a bite of his leftover cheese. The last words in this episode are the criminal saying "All from a bite of cheese!!!" My Wife for Life and I's favorite love-story-Hollywood-blockbuster Movie is with your Father Mr. Peter Michael Falk reading a bedtime story to his grandson in the movie Fred Savage "The Princess Bride!" A real movie classic!!! Thanks Again Miss Catherine for sharing your family legacy's heartbeat!!!

    Thank you so much, Catherine. Your father has devoted fans of which I am one. I just happened to see the Twilight Zone episode where your dad plays the irascible and paranoid Ramos Clemente, and couldn't help notice his already signature cigar-in-mouth. The way he spoke with that thing in his mouth is priceless. If I said I've watched every Columbo episode 20 times would be an understatement. I could go on and on, but will sum it up simply to say Peter Falk is an indelible character in my mind and heart and will be so for life. He is alive and well in our memories!

    What a blessed life you have had. Your Mother is very lovely, and I'm a huge fan of your Father, his brilliant talent, and homespun wisdom...the real deal, as all authentic NYorkers possess. I was 14 the first time I watched the movie "Prescription Murder" when it aired on TV. It instantly became one of my favorite films - to this day! After seeing it, I remember thinking how I wished they'd make more of these movies with that detective - then voila, the Columbo series, and I was hooked. Truly a Columbo fanatic , along with millions of other fans, I salute Peter Falk Forevermore! So sorry I never got a chance to meet him, but a close friend saw him on the street in NY one day, and he gave a cordial hello to everyone...so that's good enough for me! Thanks for sharing this video and allowing comments saluting your Father.

If ever I see a Columbo episode is coming on I always tune in to watch. my daughter says Oh no not Columbo again, you must of seen this one 50 times, Even i have watched it at least 10, the college kids did it using a gun their car a remote locking device and a miniature TV camera. LOL and I will rewatch it another 50 times.

      Goldwing Channel And in Budapest, Hungry. In 2011 I took a tour, and they have his statue with his exact likness, along with his hound dog, that he adoringly called "Dog". Peter Falk hemmoraged talent. I know I didn't know him, but I really have the feeling I did. That is one person I would have given anything just to meet once. I wish he had stayed with his first wife. I record all the Columbo's, but ever since I heard about how awful the second wife was, I delete those episodes. The old episodes are the best. The role was "Taylor Made" for him. What I find amazing is that after all that success, not a drop of concete. Quite a guy.

  • @taxisteve929
    @taxisteve929 6 років тому

    No age limit on those who loved Peter Falk's Columbo role....I think because we all have someone close to us who reminds us of Columbo. Annoying brilliance.....my father used to say he wasn't intelligent so he had to muddle through everything, but the things he muddled his way through!!! The tenacity.....when most would quit on a puzzle after an hour or two, or a day or two, my father would go for days or even weeks, waking in the middle of the night and grabbing scrap paper and making flowcharts or writing algebraic expressions out.....never giving up. instead of going through all of his movies which can be found online, I will just say that MAN, he had so many great roles.....incredibly diverse roles!!! He is always remembered for Columbo, and if that was all he did, he would be a great actor, but there was so much more!!
