Quincy M.E

for the record, i dont actually like quincey :rolleyes it was the only thing of the tv when i needed a brain rundown moment....

give me diagnosis murder or columbo any day :D
 
He had a boat!?!?!?

I don't remember that.

How does a public servant make the money to buy a boat FFS?

Selling heroin to kids, that's how.


Course he had a boat. Where do you think he lived?

Are you sure you've watched Quincy and not someone else? :hmm:
 
I tried to get into Quincey but I can't. He's just not a patch on Columbo. I don't like the cut of his jib tbh.

I recommend the feature length episode 'Quncy: Go Fight City Hall':cool:

Definitely Quincy - the last time I watched an ep was the one where he was due to be married, and before that I was very, very young and didn't really pay attention to his living arrangements...

People exist that like both y'know. You're looking at (the writing of) one.

My Nans staple diet was MSW and Columbo, tho thankfully she only admired MSW for Jessica Fletchers outfits.

Columbo's the boy. The subtley comedy of his best stuff is genuinely unmatched by any other tv shows of that era, even accounting for kooky studenty referneces.

(ooooh, you do pub quizzes don't you? Well the "what is Leutenant Columbo's first name?" is one of my all time fave questions ;) )

(Don't ruin it googlers, just let everyone else enjoy the second as they rack their brains for it ;) )

Oh, I think I know.

and what about Morse's first name? Is that used in quizzes as well?
 
It always bemuses me that schools, historians, social commentators and the like, always talk of the invention of the wheel, 2 world wars, the baby boom era, decimalisation, the hippy 60's free love decade, Vietnam, Nelson Mandela's incarceration and subsequent release, the Thatcherisation of England, The Beatles, Marx, Stalin and that lot, the Industrial revolution, yet never ever has anyone of note highlighted the change in society that came about by the revolution of Columbo actually showing the murder - thus eliminating the whodunnit aspect of a crime show.

Essentially IMO it profoundly revolutionised the social cultural and policitcal fabric of modern America, and subsequently the world.
 
Who remembers Petrocelli's house? I know someone on here remembers it :D

I rememeber Petrocelli AND his house - not many of us do! ;)

Columbo wins hands down for me - he's just so shabbily elegant and I love the way that it's all about vanity - the killer's downfall always comes as a result of their overarching vanity - I think I know what is first name is too ;)

I'm partial to a bit of Quincy but I can't STAND Diagnosis Murder because I just can't bear Dick van Dyck and his stupid Dick van Dyck face grrrr.....:mad:
 
quincy on ITV3 now. He's got some sort of religious/revolution thing to stop by proving children are dying for some other reason than everyone thinks.

It's got Robert Loggia in ffs :D
 
I always prefer Murder Quincy to Issues Quincy.

Unless the Issue is something hilarious, like the dangers of pogo dancing.
