Update - just watching another episode - "Murder under Glass" 1978. It's strange - watching these at the time I found them entertaining - but watching them now - it becomes more and more apparent that Peter Falk was not that good an actor and an even worse director. I can't stand to watch him now - in one scene in this ep there is Geisha girl whom he smiles at about three times - he can't leave it alone - even as he is exiting the apartment he has to turn around and smile at her again. He just can't resist it - he doesn't seem to get that what was humorous once is not humorous once repeated. Judge Judy suffers from this syndrome as well - if she says something the audience laughs at she will immediately repeat it. I don't know what Louis Jourdan was doing in this - he acts Falk off the screen.
