The Addams Family (1964–1966)
2/10
Very unfunny
7 September 2008
This show was not funny at all. I do not get the high rating. I loved The Munsters from the same era as I thought Herman and Granpa were magic playing off each other. There was never the same connection with these actors. The whole 'You Spoke French' gig that they had every show was tiresome and quite frankly ridiculous. I did not understand that at all. Its a shame too because the actors on this show were accomplished including John Astin, Carolyn Jones and Jackie Coogan. The plot lines did not do it for me nor did the acting chemistry. I felt there was none. It just seemed to me the show was just actors getting by their day of work. No heart and soul went into this . Just picking up paychecks for probably accomplished actors having trouble getting parts . The child actors were very robotic as well, like a scared 4th grader in a school play, particularly Pugsley. I guess that these kids were pushed into this by their parents . Just an awful show with unlikable, annoying characters .
