RIP Tony Randall

[AndyC]

Just saw his obit on TV  yesterday. Strangely enough, I'd just been wondering if he was still around. He was 84.

And Jack Klugman outlived him - who'd have thought?

I must have saw every rerun episode 5 times of THE ODD COUPLE withTony Randall as Felix Unger. Really loved that show when I was a kid.

Watched it all the time when I was little, and I'm glad to see it back on one of the satellite channels. The humour still holds up.

Hard to believe those two would already have been in their 50s when they made that show. They seemed younger, especially Randall. I was amazed to learn that he was actually a couple of years older than Klugman.

I might have to honour Tony by renting The 7 Faces of Dr. Lao. Definitely a showcase of his acting talents. Then again, I've heard he hated that movie. The stereotypical title character was probably cause for much chagrin.
