RIP Louis Jourdan
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

He's also one of a handful of Columbo murders who tried to off the detective upon being found out....

He was also the villain in the movie Swamp Thing, although I really only remember that movie because of Adrienne Barbeau.

Jourdan: "You're an able man, Lieutenant. I respect that. But I don't think I care for you very much."
Columbo: "I was thinking the same thing about you. I respect your talent, but I don't like anything else about you."
Very politely, while they were eating dinner together.
