What do you get when you put two divorced men whom are nothing alike in the same apartment? You get The Odd Couple, the 1970s sitcom starring Tony Randall as neat freak Felix Unger and Jack Klugman as total slob Oscar Madison. The series was never a major hit in the five seasons that it aired on ABC, but has become more well-known and appreciated as a classic sitcom as the years passed by. The Final Season of The Odd Couple contains all 22 episodes from the fifth and final season of the series on a three disc DVD set.

The disgraceful music edits on this show, specifically the axing of "Cocktails From Two" from "Strike Up The Band Or Else" did the impossible for me. It made me get a boot AFTER the official version came out.

CBS/Paramount ruined the comedy of at least a dozen episodes over the course of S3-5 with their lame cheapskate approach to song clearance issues.
