Found a commercial done by Klugman and Randall - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TheStromba · 01-17-2005, 07:58 PM

I stumbled across this while looking for info on possible legal issues with the Odd Couple DVD release.

It must have been done shortly before Randall's death and they are playing Felix and Oscar !!

I remember that commercial. It was great.

The Lifescan folks also did a commercial featuring Harry Morgan, Jamie Farr and Gary Burghoff from "M*A*S*H."

i believe they did commercials as oscar and felix in the 70s during the original run and even had their picture on the product, which was either a parker brothers game or a food item, i'm not sure.

I believe they (Parker Brothers) mad a special "Odd Couple Edition" Yathzee game. Both of there pictures were on the cover of the box.

I tried to post a picture of the Yahtzee game but it didn't work.

I remember the commercial.
Jack saying to Tony "Ya gotta be bold!"
Tony saying "I'd rather be neat."

I remember that commercial, it was great! I remember, they did it on the set of their apartment.

Anyone remember the commercials they did for Eagle Snacks in the early 90s, wher Tony Ranndal did all the talking? (because Jack Klugman had just gotten over his throat sugery)

i still have a few of those ads on tape they were funny they also did some sort of psa as felix and oscar about food spoilage in the 70s the plot had felix admonishing oscar for leaveing the fridge door open so every piece of food in the appartment spoiled

I just now remember a quote they said from a TV commercial they did for the game. They were both playing on their dining room table i think and as usual Oscar was getting on Felix.

Oscar: "Felix...what are you doing?!? In this game you have to be bold!"
Felix: "Bold?? I'd rather be neat."

I remember they also made a record album in the 70s, during the run of the show. It was called "The Odd Couple Sings" or something like that.
