I am taking the easy was out today-as it has been “one of those days” where even going to the restroom was a stretch! Too busy to even tend to THAT kind of business!!
An old college buddy sent me the following two clips from the hit TV show “The Odd Couple”, starring Tony Randall and Jack Klugman—and I laughed out loud! I completely forgot how much I enjoyed that show—and just how hilarious it was! Terrific writing combined with masterful comedic timing in the acting made Felix and Oscar a HUGE hit!
One of the first attempts at creating a TV from a hit movie starring Walter Mattheau, the prospects for a small-screen version were not good—but TV’s “Odd Couple” proved to be bigger than the movie, in much the same way (albeit it to a smaller degree) as M*A*S*H.
Enjoy the following clips-when TV could get a laugh without sexual innuendo (or at least not as much as we see today!)

And now this one, where Jaye C. Morgan has another way of delivering Felix’s “masterpiece”
