I agree with you @sonnyjc9 Columbo reincarnated: "Columbo" isn't the typical detective whodunit TV show. On most detective shows, viewers don't know who committed the crime until the detective pieces the clues together and figures it out. On this show, however, viewers see the crime unfold at the beginning of most episodes, including who the perpetrator is. The mystery and fun for viewers is trying to spot the clues that will lead Lt. Columbo (Peter Falk) to discover the culprit and watching the tricks he uses to get a confession.

You missed my point. All you say is correct but I was highlighting the "sameness" of the two stars style. Their actions and speech patterns and phrasing. She is the female  "Columbo".

Anyone remember the old Columbo series with Peter Falk?  Well, Poker Face is the updated version of that very popular series. Charlie is the re incarnation of Columbo right down to the speech patterns and mannerisms. This series is sure to be a hit!  

Finally a series worth watching AND holds true to the actions of its' main character from the books Let's hope they keep this up. It'll be worth the wait each season if they keep it true to form.
