The Oddball Couple was
DePatie-Freleng Enterprises'
Funny Animal take on Neil Simon's
The Odd Couple, produced as a
Saturday Morning Cartoon for
ABC. It ran for two seasons, from 1975 to 1977.
The main characters were Spiffy, a
Neat Freak cat voiced by Frank Nelson, and Fleabag, an unkempt dog voiced by
Paul Winchell. As in the play and the live-action sitcom, most of the comedy came from personality clashes between Spiffy and Fleabag, but turned
Up to Eleven to take advantage of the animated format.
