Storyline

Felix's daughter Edna is getting married, and his wife Gloria throws him out of the house for a few days, so that she can plan the wedding herself, without him getting in the way. Felix temporarily moves in with Oscar, who is still living in the same apartment from the TV show. Due to throat cancer, Oscar had to have one of his vocal cords removed, and he can only speak in a raspy whisper. Meanwhile, plans for the wedding are going on, and things get complicated when Felix finds out that Edna's fiancé has been divorced twice.

Trivia

For this telefilm, according to Tony Randall, "Jack (Klugman) insisted that we do a two-hour Odd Couple movie about throat cancer. He wanted the movie to have a message... he wanted the message to be (to America) that there are millions of people who have beaten (cancer)... but I said, "How in the world are we ever going to make this funny?" He (Klugman) said, "Don't worry about it. You'll make it funny."

Goofs

Oscar has a stuffed gorilla named Stanley in the movie, in flashback segments of the series set before Feilx moved in, the gorilla's name was Bruce. (It's implied that it's the same stuffed gorilla, because upon seeing it Felix says, "Ah, I see Stanley's back".)

Back Together again after all those years!

The return of a sitcom gem has brought to light. "The Odd Couple: Together Again" brings back Tony Randall and Jack Klugman for a reunion that will last for a lifetime. Felix Unger(Randall) has remarried, and his only daughter, Edna(Toni Kalem) is getting married for the first time. All the time Felix has been the same: Fussy. His fussbudgetness gets him kick out of the house for only a few days. He goes back to his old resting ground, Oscar Madison(Klugman), who has recovered from throat cancer surgery. (The cancer claimed Klugman's larynx and vocal cord in real life, that's why he's very gruff now.) So while at Oscar's place, he and all his friends try to get his spirits back up. While that's in the works, the wedding plans are in the works. Then Felix is at it again, meddling. The fiancé, is divorced twice. And Felix starts jumping the gun again. This time, the wives he married were bad, not him. And it was Oscar who helps out the Ungers for Felix. Imagine, friends for life in god times and bad. Those two are inseparable. Maybe Oscar will be tying the knot himself for the second time. A great reunion movie, too bad some of the other casts couldn't make it like Al Molrinaro. It was good to see those two again. Sadly, it will the last for Randall. He died in 2004. R.I.P. Tony Randall! 4 out of 5 stars!
