MATTHEW PERRY DODGED A BULLET
Matthew Perry has every reason to smile as he takes off for parts unknown at LAX – his Odd Couple series was teetering, but looks like it IS returning for another season on CBS. Since Perry’s other sitcom attempts after “Friends” have failed, this is good news. Unfortunately the updated Odd Couple scripts are just not as funny as the original series. There is a distinct lack of subtlety with every punchline delivered on the new show, followed by loud laughter. The writing just isn’t that creative, (“Friends” spoiled us.) Hopefully next season will be better…
