# Wait, are you suggesting that Shatner wore a rug?

# Him and Koenig both.
The more interesting idea is that Kirk wore a wig.

# Was Peter Falk's eye playing a real eye in Columbo?
They never get away with it these days, they'd have to cast an able-eyed actor and quite right too.

# For some reason I think Columbo had a glass eye
but this is a fascinating question. Is his glass eye referenced in any of the scripts? Get Tim Vine on the case.

# Not likely that a serving detective would have a glass eye, even less likely that a serving detective would lose an eye, have it replaced using public funds and then be permitted to continue in his role.
No, there's only one explanation that makes sense and leads to an unexpected double act.
Detective Columbo must have lost the eye while serving, concealed this somehow and paid for the glass eye out of his own pocket.

Thus the double act in every investigation, Detective Columbo with the Private Eye.
