My personal favorites among those that come to mind are the "special recipe" chili exchange in "Swan Song" and the scene with Larry Storch in "Negative Reaction."

When he was driving the driving instructor who got so frustrated w/him, he walked back in negative reaction. Another was when the police department picked him up to have him go to the gun range, he was so overdue and would not go on his own.

The scene of Columbo walking-running-falling down the steep hill is from "The Greenhouse Jungle.
I think one of the funniest Columbo moments happens in "A Case of Immunity." It's the running gag of Columbo accidentally stepping on Hassan Salah's robe. Every time you hear the tearing sound as he walks away, the look on Hassan's face is hilarious.
Jesus is the Son of God and my Lord and savior. Pretty cool. -

Speaking of Dog. There is a scene in a "Most Dangerous Match" where Columbo has dog on the vet's table and he and the vet sit down to talk and dog's snoring startles them to check on dog. The vet grabs a stethiscope (sp?) to determine that dog is snoring. Dog is really knocked out.

Really so many I always laugh in The Bye-Bye Sky High I.Q. Murder Case when Columbo is in the bar and is very kind answering to the girl flirting on him, and he doesn't stop chasing the boy!
And like that.. he's gone. (Verbal Kint) -

I always laugh when Columbo goes to this mission in "Negative Reaction" to go question the whino (Vito Scotti) and the interaction between Columbo and the nun (Joyce Van Patten). Columbo: "I've had this coat for seven years". Nun: "Oh you poor man". Cracks me up every time!!

That is one of my favourites, too. Especially how he then explains that he is a policeman, and she assumes he is working undercover. She praises his disguise, and he (self-consciously?) opts not to correct her.
