Curiosidades
In the closing credits of "Crime Alert", Alan J. Levi is listed as supervising producer, Todd London as co-producer, and April Raynell as writer. All three people performed those functions on this episode of Colombo (1971).

Pifias
Anders could have simply removed the poisoning cigarette from Clarke's hand, and leave. Instead, he starts planting his own cigarette butts into the ashtray, and even one into the victims hand. An experienced Crime Psychologist as Anders, would never plant items that could incriminate him self, to a clean crime scene.

Citas
Budd Clarke: [Choking to death from a poisoned cigarette] Wade... I can't... I can't breathe. Help me.
Wade Anders: [Smiling] I told you those things were gonna kill ya.

A great murder undone by several tiny mistakes...and one bigger one.

George Hamilton plays Wade Anders, the host of a show very similar to "America's Most Wanted". The show is a big success and things look great for Anders...until an old enemy shows up to see him. It seems that a TV news man was also up for the job of host of this show....and he's bitter about Anders beating him out in becoming the host. But the news man has something on Anders...he has just discovered early in his life, Anders starred in a porno film...and the news guy has a copy and plans on using it!

With the destruction of his career a strong possibility, Anders hatches a mostly ingenious plan to murder the guy. However, of course, the plan is NOT perfect and Columbo is on the case....so sooner or later he's bound to get caught.

The crime is really neat and well thought out. But the actual execution left out some important details...so see the show and see how Columbo catches him. Well worth seeing and quite enjoyable.
