Lieutenant Columbo is the main character in the American detective crime drama television series Columbo created by Richard Levinson and William Link. Columbo is a shrewd and exceptionally observant homicide detective who often disguises his aptitude with his inelegant, shambling manner; trademarks of his blue-collar ethos include his rumpled beige raincoat, cigar and relentless investigative approach.[1] Columbo's first name is never mentioned in dialogue, although the name "Frank Columbo" is visible on pieces of identification in various episodes.[2]
