Tony Randall and Jack Klugman return as Oscar and Felix from the TV series. Twenty years have passed, and nothing has changed. Well, Klugman has had laryngeal surgery, so that's written into the story. And Randall's daughter, played by Pamelyn Ferdin in the show, has grown into Toni Kalem, who is about to be married. When Randall's insanity gets the wedding kicked out of the Plaza, Barbara Barrie, now playing his wife, kicks him out. So he goes to stay with Klugman.
By and large, it is an oversized episode of the 1970s show, with the usual neat/sloppy jokes, the poker game, and Penny Marshall reprising her role of Klugman's secretary. Clearly aimed at people who were nostalgic for what the network suits used to hyperventilate about because it was a coded gay comedy, it offers nothing new, and the pace lacks the snap of the TV series.
