Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Odd Couple is a 1965 comedy play by Neil Simon.The premise is simple: Neat Freak newswriter Felix Ungar is kicked out by his wife, and with no place else to go must move in with his friend, sportswriter Oscar Madison, a total slob. Art Carney and Walter Matthau starred as Felix and Oscar respectively in the original, Mike Nichols-directed Broadway production.Simon rewrote his original play twice: first in 1981 as The Female Odd Couple, a Gender Flip version of the piece, and again in 2002 as Oscar and Felix: A New Look at the Odd Couple, which is basically the original play updated with more contemporary jokes and references.The play has also been variously adapted into a 1968 film, with a 1998 sequel, also written by Simon; a 1970–75 TV sitcom; The Oddball Couple, a 1975 animated series (starring a cartoon dog and cat); The New Odd Couple, a 1982 sitcom with black actors in the lead roles; and a third live-action series in 2015.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Bait-and-Switch: At the end of the first act, Oscar tells Felix that he's saving all the chips on the floor for his game tomorrow. Felix gets a vacuum and picks them up anyway. Oscar comes back in and yells, "Hey!" Then he follows up with..."I didn't know I had one of those!" | |
