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

He even meets Kevin!

[-] Lydia_K@startrek.website 19 points 2 years ago

These are AMAZING!

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 40 points 2 years ago

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

Why can't I upvote all this more than once!? files bug report

This rules!!!

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 28 points 2 years ago

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 21 points 2 years ago

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 6 points 2 years ago

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 5 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago

Hmm, I would definitely give that a shot.

[-] metostopholes@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

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?

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 18 points 2 years ago

I would read your fanfic like this for every episode.

[-] Zehzin@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago

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...

[-] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 11 points 2 years ago

This is amazing, thanks for sharing

[-] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

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

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 10 points 2 years ago

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

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

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

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Man now this is some quality content

[-] USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website 5 points 2 years ago

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

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

Just one more thing...

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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