Show Question

[maxwell]

I was looking to start watching the odd couple dvds. Being a fan of happy days, I was looking to start with a season with Al Molinaro. It looks like he's in all of them, but is there any one where he is more frequently seen or given better parts? Thanks.

If you do this search --

imdb.com The Odd Couple (1970) episode case

you'll find every episode listed with the cast.
.
That will at least tell you if Al Molinaro appeared in a certain episode.
.
And if there was a certain season in which he appeared more.

I agree with the first person who answered yoru question, IMDB is a great tool for finding tv episode roles for a given actor.

Just fill you in a little, Al Molinaro had a recurring role as Oscar and Felix's police offer buddy named Murray. This was the only roll he played, but he was in many episodes throughout the 5 year run of the series, but there were also many episodes in which he did not appear. Off the top of my head, I can not think of an episode in which he played a larger role than the two main stars, usually he'd be in one of two scenes of an episode.

BTW, if you are also a fan of Laverne and Shirley, Penny Marshall was in quite a few episodes as Oscar's secretary.

In the first two seasons he really didn't have a big role but by season 3 he was seen a lot more and became more of a regular
