The Odd Couple (2015–2017)
2/10
from a Classic to a Shame
3 March 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Spoilers!! If the show hasn't been canceled yet, it is only a matter of time.

I was really looking forward to this show, i loved both of the Odd couple film, granted the second wan't any where as good as the original, but compared to the show was still lights years away.

The show's acting is okay at best, i mean 50% of the time it is good and then it is over the top and unbelievable. and then at times it seems like they are not even trying to act but are just saying their lines. And this is coming from me, who actually liked their chemistry in 17 again. Both Thomas Lennon and Mathew Perry seemed like they were best friends, but in the Odd Couple it clearly isn't the case.

The Dialogue is too cheesy, even though i see that they tried keeping original theme in mind, but it just didn't translate in to modern day through the writer of the show.

The Laughter maker, this thing drove me nuts within the first 4 minutes. I mean it didn't stop, as if every line said, every movement, was hilariously funny.

Overall this was a good idea and a great concept, but poorly executed.

Give this 2/10 for the effort and the thought of bringing back great stories and ideas to life.
