The Odd Couple 1.05

The Breakup

Felix gets fed up with Oscar and leaves. He tries living with other friends but proves to be incompatible with everyone else. Oscar tries living on his own but he can't stay on top of things without the help of Felix.

Thoughts

The Pidgeon sisters appear in four episodes in the first season. This is the third of those four episodes. The Pidgeon sisters also appeared in The Odd Couple movie played by the same actresses.

Murray is played by Al Molinaro who is best known to me for playing Al Delvecchio on Happy Days. He appeared in 73 episodes of The Odd Couple and 146 episodes of Happy Days. Alice Ghostley plays Mimi, Murray's wife. This episode is her one and only appearance on The Odd Couple. Ghostley looks familiar to me. She is probably best known for recurring roles on shows like Bewitched (16 episodes), Mayberry R.F.D. (13 episodes), and Designing Women (48 episodes).

This was okay but lacked any punch. It felt very weak.
