sinopsis
The final season of Columbo consisted of 14 specials released sporadically over a span of 13 years, starting in 1990 and concluding in 2003. On most major DVD releases, including in Regions 2 and 4, these episodes are considered to make up the tenth season. However some DVD releases in places such as France and The Netherlands group the episodes differently; splitting them into Seasons 10, 11 and 12 (sometimes referred to as Seasons 10, 11 and the Specials).
This was the very last season of Columbo, with Columbo Likes the Nightlife being the last ever episode produced. Peter Falk expressed interest in starring in one last case that would serve as the true finale, but it never materialized. He died in 2011. When it ended in 2003, the show had been on the air for thirty-five years.
