Always liked the series better than the movie - Jack Lemmon was a fine actor, but I always liked Tony Randall as Felix better, and Jack Klugman had it all over Walter Matthau.

I have to give the guy credit for pulling off the impossible - in his 70's marrying a decidedly hot woman decades younger (not to mention having a couple of kids!) without getting pilloried in the court of public opinion. He seemed to pull it off with grace and ease. A lot of people assumed he was gay but he didn't care and just went after what he wanted and was successful. Seems like a life well lived.
