Klugman gained fame for playing slovenly sports writer Oscar Madison in the sitcom “The Odd Couple” - a role he also had played on Broadway - and then as a crusading coroner in the crime drama “Quincy, M.E.”

For anyone who hasn't seen "Quincy,M.E.", which is probably almost everyone here, it was that generation's CSI. Good show.
