Better, wittier writing. My mother put her finger on one big difference which mostly nailed why she would only watch The Addams: The Munsters tossed insults and put-downs about in normal sit-com style. Lily semeed to spend half her time scolding her husband and her father. On the other hand, Morticia and Gomez were so madly in love with each other, they could barely keep their hands off of each other. The Addams Family <i>NEVER</i> insulted, put-down, or scolded each other. They were this screwy-but-loving family. (Mother's other reason for preferring the Addams was that, frankly, she had the hots for John Astin's Gomez. He rang her chimes. My dad just sat there and ignored her when she spoke French.)<br /><br />I was present for the shooting of a Munsters TV special at Marineland in 1966, where I met Fred, Al, and Yvonne, all in full make-up and costume. Fred was VERY nice to me. Wonderful, warm, talented man. (The biggest asset The Munsters had was its talented three leads.) Give me an email address to send to, and I'll email you the two photos I have that I took that day, color snaps of them in full Munster drag, shooting this special.Douglas McEwannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825429179234380868.post-88212388644853084882011-08-14T19:02:26.584-07:002011-08-14T19:02:26.584-07:00That's true, "The Addams Family" des...That's true, "The Addams Family" deserves it's just desserts too!
