[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 389906, member: 7"] I've been watching THE ODD COUPLE on Paramount+ recently. They don't have the complete series (but I do on DVD, they're just boxed up right now), but they have enough episodes for the casual viewer. Last night I watched the third season episode "Password" (long considered one of TV's best half-hour sitcom episodes) that guest stars Betty White, Allen Ludden, and Elinor Donahue. The episode was well-written and it had several solid and well-deserved laughs. Jack Klugman and Tony Randall play off each other wonderfully, and the sophistication of the humor makes THE ODD COUPLE perhaps Garry Marshall's best-produced TV product -- even if HAPPY DAYS, LAVERNE & SHIRLEY, and MORK & MINDY were bigger hits in the ratings. I've been breezing my way through THE ODD COUPLE without any apparent goal in mind. I will say the first season seems a little stiff with its laugh track, while the following seasons seem to breathe life into the comedy with the production change-up being before a studio audience now.
