THE ODDBALL COUPLE (ABC 1975)

An animated version of Neil Simon’s The Odd Couple features the misadventures of a dog named Fleabag (voiced by Paul Winchell) and cat named Spiffy (voiced by Frank Nelson), who live together under the same roof.

Spiffy is an orderly and polite cat who is a stickler for cleanliness and organization, and Fleabag is rude, obnoxious, lazy, untidy and very disorganized. Their disparate personalities are reflected in their house – which is one-half mansion and one-half dilapidated shack – and even in their car, which is half-pristine and half-junker. They have a secretary named Goldie Hound (a play on the name Goldie Hawn, voiced by Joan Gerber) who works in the office they share.

Other voice talents included Joe Besser, Don Messick, Sarah Kennedy, Bob Holt, Ginny Tyler and Frank Welker.

In the original Odd Couple series, Felix the neat freak was a photographer and slovenly Oscar was a sportswriter. In this series, Spiffy the neatnik is a writer and Fleabag the slob is a photographer.

The complete series - all 16 episodes - are available on 4 DVDs.  Each episode consists of two segments lasting ten minutes each.
