Yeah, really - two shows with detectives as leads.  

Or, how about the differences between Dale Cooper's quirkiness ("Damn
good coffee!!  And Hot!"), and Columbo's quirkiness ("That's a lovely 
coat you're wearing, ma'am.").

Or, how about the unseen character Diane vs. Mrs. Columbo?

Nah, not even in the same category.

ps - don't get me wrong, I like Twin Peaks better, but Columbo
is almost as good overall.
