Before becoming one of Hollywood’s most celebrated directors, Steven Spielberg directed the first regular episode of Columbo in 1971, titled Murder by the Book. The episode starred Peter Falk as the rumpled detective Lieutenant Columbo and featured a script co-written by mystery author Steven Bochco. Spielberg was only in his mid-20s at the time, but his stylish direction and camera work helped establish the show’s distinctive tone. Columbo went on to become one of the most beloved detective series in television history.
