CelebritiesDirt Bag

Many viewers were outraged that the passing of TV legend Jack Klugman — who played Oscar Madison on The Odd Couple — got very little airtime in the Emmy tribute that included a long memoriam to Cory Monteith. Klugman’s son Adam told the AP: “It’s an insult and it really seems typical of this youth-centric culture that has an extremely short attention span and panders to only a very narrow demographic of young adults.”

Jane Lynch, who presented the Monteith speech, told TMZ that she was a huge fan of Klugman’s, and if she were his son, she “might be upset too.” [EW, TMZ]
