On liberal fascists
"It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences." -- C. S. Lewis

Even with a scripted role he has the style of jackie gleason to make it look fresh and knows exactly where to milk a laugh or clapping.
I loved his part in the " The Great Race" where he was Jack Lemmon's crazy side-kick driver of the jolopy that tried to sabotage the car of Tony Curtis. He was a Cabby in Mad Mad world with Rochester fro Jack Benny.
If a cop like him starts a Columbo investigation , you're fu**** and just confess.
Thank you, that was wonderful. How sad that so many of these wonderfully-talented people are no longer with us. We miss them.
Yup, Peter Falk was one of my favorites. A very funny guy, especially as Columbo. Too bad he's gone, but he had a long successful life.
