Matthew Perry is a real life slob, says Thomas Lenon of 'The Odd Couple'

The funny pair of '17 Again', Matthew Perry and Thomas Lenon collaborated together on Odd Couple and hilarity was guaranteed. One of the few quality comedy show introduced on television this year, Odd Couple is the sixth adaptation of 1968 play written by Neil Simon. Matthew Perry plays Oscar Madison and Thomas Lenon plays obsessive cleaner Felix Unger. Lennon, who was asked about the similarity between their personalities and the characters they play, said “There is not a ton of acting happening on the show.”

To Perry he continued, “You are just kind of sloppy and gross. You just had a giant meat hoagie in the dressing room." Perry’s response to it was equally humorous, “I did, it was big and it had melted cheese involved”, he said, prompting Lennon to add, “Yeah, the Venn diagram of our personalities and the characters is just a circle!” Matthew Perry and Thomas Lennon are joined by an ensemble cast including Lindsay Sloane, Wendell Pierce and Yvette Nicole Brown. Perry is also the Executive Producer of the show. Season 1 of 'The Odd Couple' airs from Monday to Friday at 8:30pm exclusively on Star World and Star World HD.
