Columbo 📺 (MeTV, 8 p.m.): In the first Columbo pilot, psychiatrist Gene Barry uses a patient he is having an affair with to help him kill his wife, but his perfect alibi may come apart at the hands of a seemingly befuddled LAPD lieutenant, who dresses much sharper than he will in later versions.

After all, Ray is sleeping with the kingpin's girlfriend. But Junior appeared to be dead in that closing last week. The show features a case for an entire season, but it has proved many plot twist and turns to make it a journey worth the time. It's not a slow burn and plenty of the stories don't have good endings.THE TOPIC & GUEST LIST:

Autumn Night, a mysterious beauty with a harrowing past, washes up on shore of the Pynk, a strip club, seeking employment. Mercedes Sundayz, a night headlined by the club's OG, brings trouble. The cast is largely a bunch of up-and-comers, including Parker Sawyers (World on Fire), and has a recurring cast of Isaiah Washington and Loretta Devine.
