A Mary Sue is just automatically good at everything.
Columbo was a great detective but he wasn't just an automatic crime solver so he had to act stupid and let criminals trap themselves, if he was a Mary Sue he would instantly burst into the room 4 minutes into the show with all the evidence in his hand and the exact knowledge of what happened.

I just skip to the last 45 minutes with him in it. It actually makes the show more interesting trying to guess who they did it

>columbo starts bugging someone
you'll probably still know who did it pretty quick

I generally watch an ep in two sittings. I just divide in half in my head as 'part 1 and 2'. Give that a go.
