Because the ''Columbo'' episodes from 1989 to 2003 were aired very infrequently, different DVD sets have been released around the world. In many [[DVD region code|Region 2 and Region 4]] countries, all episodes have now been released as 10 seasons, with the 10th comprising the last 14 episodes, from "Columbo Goes to College" (1990) to "Columbo Likes the Nightlife" (2003). In France and The Netherlands (also Region 2), the DVDs were grouped differently and released as 12 seasons.

In [[DVD region code#1|Region 1]], all episodes from seasons 8 on are grouped differently; the episodes that originally aired on ABC were released under the title ''COLUMBO: The Mystery Movie Collection''.
