They've become a key part of my visual character.Oh, same here. I've worn glasses for over thirty years, but it's more in recent years that I've become more interested in different styles and noticing what style frames others are wearing.It's amazing how different the same frame can look on two different people and as you say, it's worth exploring which styles suit the features.This series has been great fun on that level. There's been some great eyewear, but I'm also horrified at how some of it gets treated. My heart sank when Dean Stockwell lobbed his cool sunglasses out of the swimming pool onto the hard surface in The Most Crucial Game.Oh, my knowledge is fairly limited, but I recognised this style having rewatched American Psycho recently. I don't think Fisher's glasses were exactly the same model, as the arm was slightly lower down the side, but they're certainly very similar.Yes, I'm sure it's partly a case of them writing what they know, but I also think it's a way of economising by having a studio setting. Not having to seek out locations and pay for hiring homes and venues will save a lot of time and money.Oh definitely, and I forgot to mention a smaller role in Sex And The Married Detective: Marge Redmond as the killer's friend Helen Hendrix who literally bumped into "Lisa" without recognising her as Joan.She had a nice moment at the beginning of the infamous tuba scene where Columbo tried to speak to her but she shushed him as she was watching the player. <img src="https://i0.wp.com/columbophile.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Marge-Redmond.jpg?ssl=1" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> It was a nice little character part. If it was a British show I could imagine someone like Patsy Rowlands playing the part. It's just a shame one of her biggest scenes was that one.Oh wow. That's my new word for today. What a perfect description of these filler scenes.Definitely. It feels like they're trying to appeal to a new, younger audience without really understanding how to pull it off, and it throws off the whole tone of the show. Like a square peg in a round hole.I thought it was a step up from the previous two shows, and probably better than a few of the poorer Seventies episodes.It was agonising, but for me at least I'd been forewarned and it was shorter than I expected. I'd take this over the Blue Danube scene in the previous episode, and it's more tolerable for me than the dancing graphics in Make Me A Perfect Murder.</blockquote>
