Odd Couple - Outtakes from TV Series 

Thanks for sharing. I love it when stars are nice & friendly to their fans!

I have a notion to second THAT emotion !

I just saw that episode last night and that line cracked me up.

David B ain't that the truth.

@@jjcnyc6313 I'm not David but you are absolutely right.

Totalmente de acuerdo .. Saludos desde Chile ..

ONLY in your opinion, why do you think your opinion equates to facts? I love the show but am confident enough not to have to denigrate some other show to prove it, What is wrong with the quality of some of today's Shows, Like Monk, Two and a Half men, Big Bang, Mom etc? You may like the Odd Couple better, but that doesn't make it better, Do you have Kids? if so is one "far better" than the other? or do you just love both of them, even though they may be different? I just don't get what is wrong with the personality of people who live in a town called "negativity" Don't worry, be happy!

@@georgemoore7186 … Give it a rest. That’s his opinion. Can’t you just accept an opinion that is different than yours like a mature adult?

And now the brains of it all, Garry Marshall. What a talented man who brought fame to so many and made us all laugh!!!

Didn't Neil Simon make the OC to begin with?

@@bobforapples8665 Yes but he had nothing to do with the show. This was more the tv show specific

I heartily concur !

they truly were the odd couple, that worked

Fred B. They were indeed best friends and such a shame that Jack Klugman didn’t follow Tony Randall’s constant suggestion to quit smoking.

@@Agent-xn1hr ironically, Tony Randall died first.

@@BrotherDerrick3X His young, hot second wife wore him out. But what a way to go! :-)

@@johnmac91 his widow is a year older than me.

@@BrotherDerrick3X Yeah, she was really hot. It's actually an interesting story. Randall was married to his first wife for over 50 years, however, she almost never appeared in public with him, so a lot of people in show biz thought that Randall was gay, and that the marriage was a sham (like Rock Hudson's marriage). Turns out though, that the reason his first wife was rarely seen was because she had problems with social anxiety, or agoraphobia or something, and rarely went out at all. He was apparently very devoted to her though.

That is why it worked so well.

Absolutely true!!!

Friday night TV in the 70's ABC ...start with Brady Bunch, then Partridge Family, Room 222, Odd Couple and finsh with Love American Style... that was TV!!

Everybody Loves Raymond too.

@@kendallrivers1119 If you liked it, which many of us did not. Great cast except for Ray himself...

I LOVE LUCY and the Honeymooners

@@larrywakeman4371 ...Lucy limped to the finish line.

@@antonewilson4310 Not really. Even the Lucy/Desi Hour's were of a high standard. The later Lucy Shows did sputter out by the end, but not I Love Lucy...

Ditto! (though I was in Jr High). Where can you watch Odd Couple reruns? Thanks.

Piggy-Pike-Music-Like Tony Randall's Emmy Award acceptance speech in 1975 was: "I sure am glad I won. Now if I only had a job."

Haha yeah I know right.

Nope.

Absolutely

@@tiradoentertainmentllc.2517 Yes I know right.

This was/is a brilliant comedy! The TV 📺 today is nasty, low-class garbage 🗑!

I'm starting to think, maybe they were gay? Men should not enjoy each other like that, if I had a Friend(male) that kissed me, we would not be friends anymore, or at least I would sleep with one eye open🤣🤣🤣😂😂

The woman that played the temp was in a few other episodes ("Pushover Page") and just has the perfect sitcom face and mannerisms. She stole every scene she was in. I would have not been able to keep from laughing either.

jay tobia Al Molinaro and Garry Marshall RIP

sweet one loves So So True. I was born in 80 but grew up around the tv and all these shows like mash, Barney Miller, All in the Family, Honeymooners etc I treasure they bring back memories. These shows were on 24/7 and I still enjoy em.

I miss them so much, thank GOD for utube. most of the shows on tv right now, is big waste of time even turning the tv on to watch. pure junk along with the reality shows. Who cares what is going on inside someone life. I love the odd couples and barney miller, all in the family. those are the shows that really made anyone laff.

1,000%!!!

I t is on the Decades channel from 5 to 6 pm EST.

Seriously? Oh man, that is a great story. I loved watching the Odd Couple when I was a kid...the 'remakes' don't come close to the original tv show with Tony and Jack.

Yes! WPIX, right?

Me too. The Bronx

*cough* *cough* jersey shore

Amen.

In a twist of irony, both Jack Lemmon and Jack Klugman were both in the film, "Days of Wine and Roses." (1962). Lemmon played an alcoholic PR man named "Joe Clay", who gets help with his illness through his AA sponsor, "Jim Hungerford", played by Klugman.

What does that have to do with this? This is the odd couple. Let's stay on topic shall we

I met Jack klugman around 1988 and Howard I met around 1994 both in nyc.

It’s not about entertaining anymore, just total perversion & pc which isn’t funny bc anything funny OFFENDS someone.

Are portraits your specialty?

@@matthewwoelfle5533 lol as a matter of fact yes😅😉

Odd Couple and Sanford and Son top two funniest and best sitcoms of the 70s! Then of course there was Barney Miller, All In The Family, WKRP, Soap, The Jeffersons and The Mary Tyler Moore Show too.

Hey, I'm almost 60 and feel the same way! :)

And Laverne was a regular on "The Odd Couple" as Myrna. Gary Marshall liked to use his regular crew of actors for lots of TV shows.

@@toddsalkowski448 - Gary Marshall put his sister Penny in these comedy shows. Can’t blame him..

Too late, they did it at least twice

@@louiscario6798 And both were failures!

@@louiscario6798 And both were positively dreadful.

@@louiscario6798 ...at least 3 times if you include the old Oddball Couple cartoon of the mid '70s with Spiffy & Fleabag.

@@serfcityherewecome8069 Haha yeah hey I forgot about the Odd Ball couple.

Me too! My all-time favourite episode is Felix the Calypso Singer, followed closely by A Grave for Felix. I laugh like a hyaena at both of them, every time I see them! 🤣

Thank You! I will definitely look for his book! :)

not an extensive read but it so well covered Jack's life pre-acting and how he and Tony became such wonderful friends; a friendship that lasted until the end.

Nice.

A great show that has been remade twice. I think without the Odd Couple there wouldn't be 2 1/2 Men.

God bless your dad--he was probably from a time when Americans were Rugged Individuals. I felt the same about my mom--she and I used to watch this show together, as it was one of our favorites.

Neither did I.

@@KoshN they weren't. that's the point he was making.

@@jo-anncurtin2249 I know they weren't gay. I was just AGREEING with him.

Haha yeah

Nick Hill you must have seen a spot but the car in front of you takes it. Or drove eleven blocks from your apartment and said this spot is good. On your way back to your apartment there's three spots on your street. Hahahahahahaha. I don't get mad anymore, I just laugh.

@@jjcnyc6313 Haha that's a good one and true.

I've been binge-watching it for the last few months and thought the same thing. Great writing, great cast, and it never dropped in quality.
