I absolutely love all of these. What an awesome idea.

He even meets Kevin!

I thought so too! Other people must agree, because it looks like they've done multiple episodes of it.

Ah shit, Columbo X Star Trek is totally up my alley. Nimoy and Shatner also was on Columbo and we're great episodes too.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 20 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I absolutely love Columbo. I remember the episode with Nimoy being particularly good too.

Columbo was always such a chill show. Maybe I should get to it and watch the whole thing.
Right after the next TNG rewatch maybe...

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm wrapping up another rewatch of TOS currently, then TNG next. May have to throw in some Columbo too. It's been a long time.

[–] pleb_maximus@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

I'm currently not watching any show, but felt like another TNG or Babylon 5 rewatch might be in order. Some Columbo after that would be great.
Never watched the whole of Columbo, always just what I caught with my parents on TV. So it's about time I gave the whole thing a go.

I just finished watching the entire Columbo series for like the 10th time. I have it on DVD packed away somewhere, but this time around I watched it on archive.org, as all of the episodes are available here:

Have you watched Poker Face by any chance?

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, I haven't even heard of it until this comment. Is it good?

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It is very much an homage to Columbo starting Natasha Lyonne. Same, "famous guest star acts like a total asshole and kills someone" setup. Same, "we see the murder happen," start. But lots of new hooks to keep it fresh.

And Hong Chau plays a bisexual trucker named "Marge" in the second episode. So it's pretty much got everything.

Hmm, I would definitely give that a shot.

Now mister Nomad, you say your prime function is to sterilize imperfections. That makes sense, that makes sense.

Just one more thing. You've mistaken the captain here for your creator. If I'm not wrong, that would mean you're imperfect as well, right?

I would read your fanfic like this for every episode.

[–] Zehzin@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gee I'm sorry to bother you mister... Picard was it? I don't know much about Starfleet Captains, but my wife loves that one guy, Kirk. Anyway...

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol this is amazing. Oddly enough I was interspersing a couple of Columbo episodes in between Trek last week.

You are living life the way it's meant to be lived.

Now when he calls people 'sir,' it's because of Starfleet protocol!

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Man now this is some quality content

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I wonder how Columbo would have handled the Felcium situation. 🤔

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

Just one more thing...

[–] USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is the type of quality c/risa needs. Thank you.
