''The Odd Couple'' is an American multi-camera television sitcom that premiered on February 19, 2015, on CBS. It is the sixth screen production based on the 1965 play written by Neil Simon, following the 1968 film, a 1970 television series, a 1975 Saturday morning cartoon, a 1982 reboot of the 1970 series, and ''The Odd Couple II'', the 1998 sequel to the 1968 film. The new show stars Matthew Perry (also developing and executive producing the series) as the slovenly Oscar Madison and Thomas Lennon as the obsessively-tidy Felix Unger. Perry and Lennon have previously worked together on the film ''17 Again''. The show was announced in December 2013 and was picked up by CBS as a midseason offering for the 2014–15 season. The first season concluded on May 14, 2015. On May 11, 2015, the series was renewed for a second season of 13 episodes which will premiere on April 7, 2016. ==Plot== Felix Unger and Oscar Madison meet at college in the late 1980s, and fate puts them together as roommates: while Felix is extremely neurotic and fussy in contrast to the slovenly and easy-going Oscar, they both become friends quickly. They eventually marry two women very different from themselves (Felix gets hitched with the calm but feisty Ashley, and Oscar settles down with the insecure Gaby) and have children. Years later, Felix, now a neat-freak news writer and photographer, is kicked out by Ashley after twenty years of marriage (having spent eight of them in marriage counseling, with Felix going alone for the last two years) and moves in with Oscar, now a sports talk show host, whose ex-wife Gaby has left him because he was a thoughtless slob. Now both divorcés will have to live in the same apartment and try to get along in spite of their differences. In the middle of all the hassle about housekeeping, Felix and Oscar attempt to date Casey and Emily, two sisters who are roommates in the same building, and who both have recently exited their own unhealthy relationships. Felix however is pretty insecure as he still has feelings for Ashley, which contrasts with the fact that Oscar feels better off away from his ex, this except when Gaby threatens to take away their kids in case Oscar doesn't pay the alimony on time. Oscar also holds poker games regularly, with two of the players being Teddy, his agent, and Roy, one of his best friends. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Odd Couple (2015 TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
