Poor, poor Matthew Perry. The other Friends are doing well career-wise – silver daddy Matt LeBlanc is killing it on Episodes, Courteney Cox‘s Cougar Town was just picked up for a sixth season, Lisa Kudrow will soon be returning for more of The Comeback, and you’ve probably secretly enjoyed the last couple of Jennifer Aniston‘s movies on long-haul flights – but Chandler just can’t seem to catch a break.
Well, he clearly must be a sucker for punishment, because he’s taking yet another crack at sitcom stardom, this time in a remake of The Odd Couple, which ran for five years back in the ’70s. The show is about a pair of grown men, one slob and one uptight neat freak, who find themselves living together as roommates. Perry will reportedly play Oscar, the slovenly mess, while Thomas Lennon of Reno 911 and I Love You, Man will play the Felix, the neat one.
