Did you know
- TriviaThe depicted home of Fielding Chase was owned by Linda Thompson. It sold in 2005 for $22 million.
- GoofsRadio commentator Fielding Chase wears a pencil-thin moustache, so wispy and light that it's barely visible even in most close-ups, except while he is talking to Columbo at the murder scene, when the moustache is suddenly, dramatically darker brown.
- Quotes
Fielding Chase: Yes, Lieutenant, there's always one more thing. Do you have a problem with short term memory? Perhaps you should consult a physician.

Featured review
A great match for Shatner and Falk again
For Columbo fans, William Shatner plays the controlling Fielding Chase who kills a man who can separate him from his adoptive daughter played wonderfully by Molly Hagen. The key to solving the case is as fascinating as the actual murder. Columbo figures out who done it but how does he catch him. As in any Columbo feature, all the crimes are solved by one loose thread or link. It is nice to see Three's Company Richard Kline as his daughter's friend and literary agent. William Shatner plays Fielding Chase as the overly protective suffocating surrogate father to Molly Hagen's character in this film. It is a believable one and fun to watch anyway. Like I said, I will watch Columbo all the time. I am waiting for the Columbo Cable Channel.
