Columbo doesn't really need a grand finale. Although a good one was in the episode Last Salute To The Commodore, which from what I've read was intended as a finale, but that was the worst episode (at least out of the ones I've seen so far) and thankfully they didn't end it there.
The final episode is not as bad as commodore but it's pretty bad regardless and it was an awful end to the series. There was another episode/movie planned written by Peter Falk but his health took a turn for the worse before he could get it approved.
