As I heard it, he hooked up his then-wife, Brett Somers, with Match Game, turning her into a legend in her own right. Supposedly they separated in 1974 but remained married until her death in 2007, meaning that they were married for more than 50 years but together less than half that time.
You shouldn’t italicize titles of TV shows.
I used to watch Quincy, ME back during summer break from High School.
He always seemed like a really good guy. RIP.
Oh, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar.
Never watched Quincy, but I’ve always liked him in other roles. And as much as I like The Odd Couple movie, to me Klugman and Randall will always be THE Oscar and Felix.
mmm
Great actor…Jack will be missed. I do remember him in “Twelve Angry Men”. For you Jack Klugman trivia experts-…I seem to remember that over 20 years ago, he lent his name to some kind of popcorn-making franchise business? I thought it pretty strange-did the business survive?
Rest Well Jack.
Why not? It’s a title, isn’t it?
The Odd Couple will remain one of the highlights of TV forever. Quincy not so much. That show has not aged well. But Jack was always one of my favorites.
I still remember the lyrics to the “punk” song used in (created for?) that episode. Yikes.
Sleep tight Jack.
Felix just had too much caffeine and vodka laced eggnog tonight.
