Ranking All the Seasons of Columbo (1–13)

I’m not counting the two pilots here, because do those really make a season? Anyways, I’m going off of what IMDB has as seasons (exception being the second pilot, which it has as part of the first season), because it does get a bit messy with the revival.

From worst to best:

13. Season 9 (1989–1990) — Average episode: 55.83/100

12. Season 8 (1989) — Average episode: 58.75/100
