http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1466074/I'd like to see it come back. Peter Falk is no longer with us, so it would need a new actor/actress.

(28,280 posts)and I've been watching it lately on a vintage TV show channel. The series has aged pretty well; Falk was a very talented actor.
My favorite episode: the one with Donald Pleasance as the wine connoisseur/murderer.
