Columbo: A Case of Immunity No synopsis available. Columbo: Now You See Him... Now You See Him was one of the more popular installments in the Columbo TV series. Jack Cassidy guest stars as "The Great Santini," master magician. Encumbered by a blackmailer, Santini decides to bump the fellow off. But he can't possibly be the guilty party--because, you see, he was on stage performing his famous "water tank" trick at the time of the murder. Lt. Columbo (Peter Falk) performs a few dextrous tricks of his own to wangle a confession out of Santini. Bob Dishy, Robert Loggia and Nehemiah Persoff co-star in this February 29, 1976 Columbo offering. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi Columbo: Last Salute to the Commodore No synopsis available. Columbo: A Matter of Honor A Matter of Honor motivates the murder in this 2-hour Columbo episode. Ricardo Montalban guest stars as a famous retired bullfighter. Feeling as though he's been betrayed and humiliated, Montalban kills his best friend in a manner that makes the killing seem accidental. The modus operandi: Montalban drugs his victim and plunks him in the bull ring with a particularly ferocious toro. Vacationing in Mexico, Lt. Columbo (Peter Falk) sniffs around until he's able to corner Montalban in the episode's "moment of truth." A Matter of Honor first aired February 1, 1976. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi Mrs. Columbo: Caviar With Everything No synopsis available.

Burt Bacharach: First Book Songs 1954-1958
The British ?l Records label, a division of Cherry Red Records, takes advantage of the 50-year copyright limit on recordings in Europe to compile this unauthorized collection of recordings of songs composed or performed by Burt Bacharach in the mid- and late 1950s (that is, up until 1958, the cutoff point for material in the public domain as of 2009). The result is the sort of album that otherwise probably couldn't exist, bringing together out of print material from various record companies on both sides of the Atlantic. Bacharach was in his late twenties at this point, but he was laboring in what might be described as the dying days of Tin Pan Alley or the early days of the Brill Building, depending on one's point of view. It was only toward the end of this period that he began to become successful, ranking (according to chart researcher Joel Whitburn) 12th among songwriters on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1958 as the result of five chart entries, all found here: Marty Robbins' "The Story of My Life," Perry Como's "Magic Moments," Patti Page's "Another Time, Another Place," the Four Coins' "Wendy Wendy," and the Five Blobs' "The Blob." (The album also includes British singer Michael Holliday's cover of "The Story of My Life," which topped the U.K. chart.) As this list suggests, and as the rest of the album bears out, Bacharach, often writing with the man who later became his regular lyric partner, Hal David, but also with others, was getting cuts from some of the top pop singers of the day, also including Gale Storm, Johnny Mathis, and the Four Preps, even when he wasn't actually getting hits. Other quality singers who cut his tunes (and are heard here) include Mel Torm?, Peggy Lee, Jo Stafford, Margaret Whiting, and Joe Williams. Also, a primary source of his assignments was the movies, even if that meant coming up with a cha-cha novelty song like "The Blob" for the notorious science fiction/horror flick. Although the writing is craftsmanlike and appropriate to the artists performing it, this is not music characteristic of Bacharach's distinctive later style. Even a fan could listen to this album without realizing that the songs were composed by him. But that fan would still probably be happy to possess such a collection of this early, largely obscure material. ~ William Ruhlmann

He can't afford a big attorney, so he hires shrewd Ken Bowden (Bill Murray), while Kelly's mom, Sandra Van Ryan (Theresa Russell), Sam's former lover, gets a platoon of top lawyers. Trailer-trash Suzie Toller (Neve Campbell) backs up Kelly's claim and additional plot twists and turns develop. The seldom-seen Carrie Snodgrass (Diary of a Mad Housewife) has a supporting role in this film. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi Wild Things 2 Dirty deeds among the rich, poor, and generally unscrupulous have come back into style in this direct-to-video sequel to the hit Wild Things. Niles Dunlap, a wealthy but less than honest businessman, dies unexpectedly in a light plane accident, and his teenaged step-daughter, Brittney Havers (Susan Ward), figures she's a shoo-in to inherit his fortune; however, Brittney discovers that Niles's will stipulates that his 40-million-dollar estate is to go to a charitable foundation unless a "blood heir" can be produced. Enter Maya King (Leila Arcieri), a schoolmate of Brittney's, who claims that she's Dunlap's illegitimate daughter -- according to Maya, her mother worked as a maid for the Dunlap family, and Maya was born after her mother was seduced by Niles. Meanwhile, Terence Bridge (Isaiah Washington) is an insurance investigator whose job is to hang in the balance. His employers would just as soon not pay off the two-million-dollar life insurance policy Dunlap had taken out, and Bridge is hoping to prove that the plane wreck was no accident. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Wild Things 3: Diamonds in the Rough It's been said that diamonds are a girl's best friend, but when a young woman who is about to turn 18 is set to inherit a pair of flawless diamonds, a shocking accusation forces her to choose between family and nature's perfection in the steamy second sequel to the popular hit movie Wild Things. Marie Clifford (Sarah Laine) may not have it all just yet, but when her 18th birthday finally arrives, Marie will inherit not only her late mother's vast fortune, but a matching pair of rare flawless diamonds as well. When local hussy Elena (Sandra McCoy) claims that she was raped by Marie's stepfather, Jay Clifford (Brad Johnson), Marie finds her future wealth drawn into question when she becomes entangled in a complicated web of blackmail, deception, and murder. As Marie tries desperately to decide who to trust in the ensuing chaos, FBI agent Kristen Richards (Dina Meyer) attempts to crack the case while ensuring that Marie's diamonds don't fall into the wrong hands. ~ Jason Buchan

Braceface: Turning 13 [2 Discs] -
Includes:Braceface [Animated TV Series] (2001) Braceface [Animated TV Series] Debuting June 2, 2001 on cable's Fox Family Channel, the weekly, half-hour animated series Braceface detailed the misadventures of teenager Sharon Spitz, who in the earliest episodes was an eighth grader at Mary Pickford Junior High. Feeling as awkward and useless as most girls of her age, Sharon suffered the added burden of being fitted out with icky-looking teeth braces--and to make matters worse, those braces had been struck by lightning, meaning that Sharon--or as she was known to her peers, "Braceface"--had to put up with the inconvenience of attracting every magnetized object that wasn't nailed down, and had an embarrassing habit of disconnecting nearby cell phones (or accidentally listening in to private conversations). Above and beyond this Lizzie McGuire-style complication, Sharon did her best to slog through junior high (and later high school) despite being surrounded by such vituperous rivals as her ex-best friend Nina and Nina's giggling flunky Alyson, and by such clueless types as her divorced parents and her cloddish brothers Adam and Josh. Fortunately, Sharon could boast of a loyal circle of friends, among them sports-jock Maria Wong, allergic-to-everything Conner Mackenzie, and, during her high school years, her mentor Dion, described as "unique and original" (the usual kiddie-cartoon euphemisms for "gay"). Also, she enjoyed an off-and-on romantic relationship with hunky Alden Jones, even though his carnivorous eating habits were anathema to the strictly-vegetarian Sharon. Created by Marcia Clark, whose previous "teen-angst" TV credits included Silver Spoons and Sweet Valley High, Braceface also benefited from the input of film favorite Alicia Silverstone of Clueless fame, who served as the series' executive producer and also provided the voice of Sharon Spitz during the series' first two years on the air (she was later replaced by Stacey DePass). Surviving Fox Family's takeover by Disney and subsequent "rebirth" as the ABC Family Channel, Braceface remained on the cable service until May 31, 2003, and was thereafter seen on the Disney Channel, with new episodes added to the rerun manifest. Incidentally, the U.S. run of Braceface consisted of three 26-episode seasons; the Canadian run, seen on Teletoon, was broken up into six seasons of 13 episodes each. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
