Just two months after their epic "Battle of the Sexes" drew the largest-ever live audience for a tennis match, Bobby Riggs and Billie Jean King squared off against each other at the ping-pong table in the episode, "The Pig Who Came to Dinner." Ballet superstar Edward Villella performs in "Last Tango in Newark" and Marilyn Horn, as a baker with an operatic voice and an unrequited crush on Oscar, sings selections from Carmen , as well as "People," in "Vocal Girl Makes Good." "The Songwriter" features legendary disc jockey Wolfman Jack and entertainer Jaye P. Morgan, who performs the ever-popular Felix-penned ditty, "Happy and Peppy and Bursting with Love." Playboy emperor Hugh Hefner drops in for the flashback episode, "One for the Bunny," in which a jealous Felix is undone when he must photograph his future wife, Gloria, for a possible Playmate spread. But the chemistry between Tony Randall and Jack Klugman, Best Actor Emmy nominees in each of this series’ five years, is the real attraction. They are so thoroughly at home in their roles that they elevate the more over-the-top material, as witness their ill-fated presentation as glue entrepreneurs in "A Barnacle Adventure." Among the season’s best episodes are the ones that go back to the basics of Neil Simon’s warhorse play: Can two divorced men share an apartment without driving each other crazy? In "The Insomniac," Felix cannot get to sleep ("I’m up as a pup") despite Oscar’s best efforts. In "Cleanliness is Next to Impossible," Felix hypnotizes the unwitting Oscar into becoming a neat freak after Oscar’s new girlfriend calls him sloppy (Felix’s heartbreak at having to bring Oscar out of it is palpable. "It’s like a dream come true," he moans). Elinor Donahue’s Miriam, Felix’s girlfriend, is conveniently forgotten in the episodes in which Felix tries to win back his ex-wife ("Gloria Moves In"). Zinger-queen Brett Somers also returns as Oscar’s ex-wife, Blanche, in flashback episodes that continue to play havoc with Felix and Oscar’s backstory (so now they were in the Army together?) Randall, Klugman and company (including Penny Marshall as Oscar’s secretary, Myrna) clearly relish playing to their enthusiastic live audience, and this richly entertaining season is brimming with classic moments and bits of comic business that continue to bring down the house. --Donald Liebenson Two divorced New Yorkers---a slob and a fussbudget---try to live together without driving each other crazy' in this classic sitcom based on Neil Simon's hit play and movie. Both Jack Klugman and Tony Randall won Emmys in the leads, the latter in the final year of a five-season run. Now if I only had a job, ' Randall said at the Emmy gala. The show inspired at least two remakes, one an animated series portraying the main characters as a cat and a dog, and a 1982-83 version with a mostly black cast. Review: please don't be deterred by what little is "missing" - I feel I have to voice- especially for the sake of any interested customers who've never seen the show or this season- the opinion that the musical cues/performance cuts have rarely spoiled or impacted negatively on the viewing experience for me. And I watched these during their original, run, yes, pre-syndication, AND in syndication and I've got a very good memory for details. When you take what you DO get here and set it aside what's missing, I'm sorry, to not get and watch and enjoy this item based on that amount of loss is like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Two instances are jarring, I'll admit, an abrupt cut at the start of an episode and one which is the punch line at the end, but, when you've got the natural and remarkable fluidity and chemistry of Randall and Klugman's performances... well, I was carried along right past the minor "speed bumps". I'll admit, the geek in me got a bit annoyed with the way the show's writers would honor continuity one minute and jettison it the next. By this point, ANYTHING having to do with the characters prior to the first season can be seen more as an ensemble comedy group in various comedic situations. (like the army story) And references to their childhoods vary, but are saved by the delivery of the lines, ESPECIALLY Tony Randall when describing aspects of his childhood. (while I prefer his previous, perfectly-delivered "I slept with a sponge" anecdote about not having stuffed animals, the bit with the cellophane-wrapped teddy bear is touching and funny) What really strikes me about these stories is the "adult" aspect of them. These are people who- while not shown- are in and out of physical relationships and "affairs" (Felix listing his is a particularly frank highlight for me) and who are not defined solely by one paragraph of character description (unlike many of today's sitcoms). Felix can be remarkably open-minded, enthusiastic and spur-of-the-moment without in any way being inconsistent. Oscar is incredibly believable as being charming and fun to be around despite his sloppiness, limited appetite, gambling weakness, etc.. The redeeming qualities make it believable, to me at least, Review: Season 4 - The Odd Couple At Its Best! - In my opinion, The Odd Couple Season 4 was the peak season of the 5-year running series with many great episodes. Season 4 was “The Odd Couple At Its Best!” I love the format of each DVD and the scenes (from each episode) that are displayed prior to playing an episode (much like what Season 3 was). Season 4 brought back great memories of humor and laughter that I use to enjoy during my younger days. But recently, with the Season 4 DVD set, as the days wrapped up, I always looked forward to watching an episode or two. A great way to end a busy day! By the way, the picture on the Season 4 DVD case is from Episode 2 - “Last Tango In Newark.” ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Tony Randall | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 166 Reviews | | Format | Box set, Color, Full Screen, Multiple Formats, NTSC | | Genre | Comedy, TV | | Language | English | | Number Of Discs | 4 | ## Images ![The Odd Couple: Season 4 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hK5Lw2veL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ please don't be deterred by what little is "missing" *by W***E on January 17, 2017* I feel I have to voice- especially for the sake of any interested customers who've never seen the show or this season- the opinion that the musical cues/performance cuts have rarely spoiled or impacted negatively on the viewing experience for me.

Season 4 was “The Odd Couple At Its Best!” I love the format of each DVD and the scenes (from each episode) that are displayed prior to playing an episode (much like what Season 3 was). Season 4 brought back great memories of humor and laughter that I use to enjoy during my younger days. But recently, with the Season 4 DVD set, as the days wrapped up, I always looked forward to watching an episode or two. A great way to end a busy day! By the way, the picture on the Season 4 DVD case is from Episode 2 - “Last Tango In Newark.” ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ And So, It Ends In Grand Style *by R***O on July 14, 2015* So, "The Odd Couple" concludes its four seasons, in grand style. Jack and Tony were always amazing together. They loved each other as much as Oscar and Felix did. I wish they'd been able to squeeze out just one more season, but I think both of them were ready to start doing other films and stage again, independently. I have to give a ton of kudos to Garry and Tony Marshall (and I won't leave you out, Penny!) and Jerry Belson, who created and shaped the show into what it was. They did it right. Way right. Basically, I have nothing to criticize. This was one of the last comedies on TV that was above criticism. It was consistently great, every week. All the episodes were good. Mind you, I was not alive when it was on TV originally. It was in reruns forever before finally making it onto DVD. I remember filling out a questionnaire from Columbia House, asking "What shows would you like to see in our video Collectors Edition?" and I suggested "The Odd Couple." Anyhow, it will always be a favorite show. As for this DVD - no special features to speak of but the episodes are crystal clear. Not sure if they remastered the prints or anything? I think Season 1 is the only one of the four with any special features. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/21199455-the-odd-couple-season-4](https://www.desertcart.in/products/21199455-the-odd-couple-season-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
