Peter Falk died! :(

Peter Falk aka Columbo died today. Damn, I watched all the episodes as kid in TV, he was a living childhood memory for me. I can't think of anybody in my life that I meet that didn't like Columbo.

His last years were pretty hard. I hope he's now in a better place.

RIP Peter Falk

RIP Peter Falk. He was responsible for some very enjoyable TV moments in my childhood. Columbo was genius.

I was thinking about that show the other day. Rest in peace.

Ah man, now this is weird. I was wondering about whether Peter Falk was still alive literally two days ago!

Just the fact that he was in The Princess Bride means that I have to take my hat off to him for a moment.

Yep - he totally added value to that movie which would be awesome w/o the narration.
