NEW YORK, Sept. 1 (UPI) -- It's been three years since ABC TV last aired a fresh "Columbo" adventure and star Peter Falk says the wait is not yet over.
"There's a bit of a problem," the actor told TVGuide.com. "The script that I like, the network doesn't like. The script that they like, I don't like."

Viewers haven't seen the rumpled detective solve a mystery since "Columbo Likes the Nightlife" in 2003.
Falk did not reveal what his preferred follow-up would be, but said ABC wants Columbo's next case to involve lingerie models, TVGuide.com reported.
The actor hasn't been sitting at home waiting for ABC, however. He plays Paul Reiser's dad in "The Thing About My Folks," which opens in U.S. theaters Sept. 16.
