Klugman burst out laughing. “That was put on later,’’ he said of the narrative that began every episode. “The producers (and network censors) thought that two guys living together would be interpreted as them being gay.

This show taught me about the word, "Assume"
LOL Me too. Ass - U and me.
Don't recall the episode per se but remember Felix being all persnickety ( a given) and excited about a symphony violin maestro visiting. And Oscar got him to play "Turkey in the Straw". I love "Turkey in the Straw".
When I was a kid, I watched the TV show all the time. It was in syndication in the early '80s, and I never even knew it was a movie. Now, I've seen the movie dozens of times, and since I haven't seen the show in probably 30 years I sometimes forget that there was a show.
"I can't take it anymore, Felix, I'm cracking up. Everything you do irritates me. And when you're not here, the things I know you're gonna do when you come in irritate me. You leave me little notes on my pillow. Told you 158 times I can't stand little notes on my pillow. "We're all out of cornflakes. F.U." Took me three hours to figure out F.U. was Felix Ungar!"

That is the exact episode I went to first. That one and ... I forgot what it was about but, they ended up in some kind of high school function (Felix's daughter?) and there was this teenage kid effing with Felix. He would walk up to him and speak out the side of his mouth telling him crazy lines that didn't make sense - "the keys in the cupcake - we are going to break out midnight" and then he would walk away. Felix was left there shocked and nobody had that look like Tony Randall.
They were all good though. The opening sequence and the music was the best.

"In other words, you want me to leave."
"No, not in OTHER words! Those are the perfect ones!"

Roy Clark was a pretty influential country musician (real country) who passed away today, and this performance he gave on the show is pretty terrific. lonk - ( New Window )

Easily in my top 5 of sitcoms as it is for many others, I'm guessing.
