Today, on this day in history
youtube ^ | november 13

On November 13, Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence; that request came from his wife. Deep down, he knew she was right, but he also knew that some day he would return to her. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his friend, Oscar Madison. Several years earlier, Madison's wife had thrown HIM out, requesting that HE never return. Can two divorced men share an apartment without driving each other crazy?

I liked that show. It was well acted and well written. Nowadays they would make one of the characters very different, as in either a stereotypic gay who runs a flower shop, or black Samuel Jackson type, who spoke ebonic and engaged in petty theft (just tryin ta survive, Bro!).
The other extreme would be as a white male Tea Party republican who was proud of his NRA membership, his Mayflower heirlooms, and Civil War/WW2 family scrapbooks.

Even as a kid, I liked the Odd Couple.

One of the funniest shows ever. From a real golden age of television.

I was a kid at the time but I thought the actress who played Felix’s wife was pretty hot for an “old” lady.
