The Odd Couple: Season Four Would Be a “Surprise” to CBS Sitcom Star

It looks like Telly Vulture isn’t alone in expecting there will be no season four of The Odd Couple TV show on CBS. Thomas Lennon, who plays Felix Unger on the low-rated sitcom reboot expects The Odd Couple will be cancelled. Matthew Perry, Lindsay Sloane, Wendell Pierce, and Yvette Nicole Brown also star.

Speaking to TV Line, Lennon said that although he has not heard anything, and feels The Odd Couple is “hanging in there,” he expects it will not return for a fourth season on CBS.

Thomas Lennon Expects The Odd Couple to Be Cancelled by CBS

Here’s more from Kimberly Roots at TV Line:

TVLINE | I would imagine it’s a little different from Odd Couple hours. Any word on that show’s chances?
I don’t know. I haven’t heard anything at all. The show is still hanging in there. It actually went up in the ratings [recently], but I don’t know anything at all.

TVLINE | How are you feeling about it?
From my gut, I would be a little bit surprised if it’s coming back. I think CBS wanted it to do slightly better than it’s been doing. That said, it’s doing like a 1 [rating] on Monday nights at 9:30, which is pretty late for that show, by the way… That said, I hate to speculate, but from my point of view it doesn’t seem a lot like it’s coming back.

TVLINE | I appreciate your candor.
By the way, at some point when you get into doing the things that I’ve done now for this long, you manage to make… you can’t let things break your heart. If you’re going to be an actor, forget it.
