The Odd Couple. T he Odd Couple is a play by Neil Simon. Following its premiere on Broadway in 1965, the characters were revived in a successful 1968 film and 1970s television series, as well as several other derivative works and spin-offs. The plot concerns two mismatched roommates: the neat, uptight Felix Ungar and the slovenly, easygoing Oscar Madison. In 1968, The Odd Couple was made into a highly successful film starring Jack Lemmon (1925-2001) as Felix and Walter Matthau (1920-2000) as Oscar. The success of the film was the basis for the 1970–75 television sitcom, starring Tony Randall (1920-2004) as Felix and Jack Klugman (1922-2012) as Oscar. Two signed photographs: 8” x 10” color signed by Jack Lemmon and Walter Mathau and an 8” x 10” black and white, signed by Tony Randall and Jack Klugman “Mike Best wishes! Jack Klugman”.
