THE ODD COUPLE (this was an “Extra” in 2013)
From the pen of Neil Simon …
to the Broadway stage …
to the silver screen …
to the boob tube …
“The Odd Couple” was an instant hit when Tony Randall and Jack Klugman took over the roles created by Jack Lemon and Walter Matthau in the film …
And, as such, the familiar tale ruled the tv ratings for five seasons.
Yes, the television series borrowed the theme from the movie ...
But so did several other songs on our countdown.
And besides ...
It's a damn catchy tune!!!
