For November 13: An Odd Couple Finding Aid

The narration from the opening credits in the first season of the sitcom The Odd Couple has provided the pretext for November 13 being an annual day to celebrate the show. The choice of date was something of an inside joke — it was also the birthday of the show’s creator/producer Garry Marshall. It’s occurred to me that, crazily enough, I have now amassed enough posts on the topic to bundle them together with this little traffic hub. Enjoy them, do!
