2013 EMMYS
Klugman Deserves Emmy Tribute, Says Son
Adam Klugman, the son of the late Jack Klugman, who was a three-time Emmy winner and star of The Odd Couple, says it’s “criminal” that his dad wasn’t part of a special Emmy tribute, honoring those who died in the past year. “My dad was at the inception of television and helped build it in the early days,” Klugman said.
The prolific, craggy-faced character actor and regular guy who was loved by millions as the messy one in ABC’s The Odd Couple and the crime-fighting coroner in NBC’s Quincy, M.E., died Monday.
