My wife, she has a thing for transporter anomalies

Relevant to the Columbo trend, Kate Mulgrew played Columbo's wife in "Mrs. Columbo" for about a season.

They retconned her as not Columbo's wife and changed the name of the series to Kate Columbo for season 2, because even they realized that Columbo's wife wouldn't be a hot novelist.
Didn't peg Columbo as the "cradle robber" type. Maybe he just prefers a submissive relationship where he's constantly under threat of being Tuvixed. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
- Maybe Columbo is much younger but lived a harsh life.
