	The Odd Couple's sexual ambiguity. By Dana Stevens
		Tony Randall's characters existed in the gray zone between straight and gay.
		Though he had a long and impressive stage and screen career, Randall is best remembered in the cultural imagination as Felix Unger, the uptight, obsessively tidy roommate of slovenly sportswriter Oscar Madison (played by Jack Klugman) on The Odd Couple, the ABC series that ran from 1970 through 1975.
		But I would argue that the Oscar/Felix relationship occupied a more ambiguous space, one where Randall, in fact, spent his entire career: Outside the fl-and-white absolutism of the "is he or isn't he?" question, Randall broke new ground by choosing roles that existed precisely in the liminal zone between straight and gay.
