Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

OllieSuave-007 This is one of those oldies black and white TV shows that I used to watch when I was younger - a fun, whimsical series about the misadventures of an odd, grim and macabre loving but friendly family.From the toe-tapping theme song to the family's creepy house, this is a series that shows even horror and ghoulish elements can be something to laugh and have fun with. Each character gives off his/her own brand of uniqueness and charm, like Gomez's clearing his throat with a sword to Morticia letting off steam as her way of smoking, and from Uncle Fester's lying in a bed of nails to Lurch's towerly presence.A fun classic show that is great for the whole family.Grade B+

WakenPayne I personally am not a big fan of sitcoms. I find them formulaic, generic and above all not really that funny (or at least wearing extremely thin after watching it for a while). There have been a couple of exceptions such as Bottom, Blackadder and Mystery Science Theater 3000 to name a few. Another that I think I can add to this list is The Addams Family.Take a macabre family consisting of Gomez Addams, Morticia Frump Addams - his wife, Uncle Fester Frump - Morticia's brother, Grandma Addams - Gomez' mother, the 2 children - Wednesday and Pugsley, their cousins Thing and Itt, Their butler Lurch and their pets consisting of an octopus, a spider and a Lion named Kitty. Put the family through interactions between everyday people who are always afraid of them. They are not only macabre but happy (and friendly... in a strange way) all the time.The acting is actually pretty good for 1960's television (lets just say I've seen a couple of episodes of 60's television and the acting was crap) John Astin as Gomez, Carolyn Jones as Morticia and Jackie Coogan as Uncle Fester are the best performers. Ted Cassidy as Lurch is fun to watch as Lurch though and Lisa Loring is adorable as Wednesday.One thing I like about this show is the sets. I would love to get one of those weird props in the lounge room but that's just me. I'm also surprised at the effects. In the first episode Fester puts a light bulb in his mouth and it lights up. I know where good and bad CGI comes from but I really want to know how they did that.So if you want to see a sitcom of which the humour still holds up to this day then the Addams Family is certainly worth a look. I haven't seen any of the other incarnations of this show but I will certainly try and take a look at it.

SanteeFats I watched this series when it first came out, yeah I know, I am that old. I find this series funny, funny, funny. I actually own the entire series and break it out now and then to watch again. Wednesday is always trying to put Pugsley in some kind of killing situation and loves to Marie Antoinette her dolls(chop of their heads)!! Gomez is always turned on whenever Morticia speaks French. They are extremely wealthy but most of the time you have no idea where the money comes as Gomez is constantly making bad choices. I like cousin Itt, Granmama, and Uncle Festus. They make a great support cast. The different relatives that pop in or visit from time to time are also funny. When the outside world becomes involved it can ramp up the humor.

calvinnme The Addams Family TV show was based on a series of cartoons started back in the 1930's and authored by Charles Addams for the New Yorker. Whether or not Addams intended for there to be some kind of Depression-era message on the idle rich being scary in more ways than one I do not know, but it does seem like that is one of the messages trying to come through all the dark humor. What I do know is that a show this offbeat and creative would never get aired on network TV today, and even if it did, the minute it got successful the network suits would start tinkering with it and ruin it.The Addams' are portrayed as a close knit and happy family - in fact they rarely have contact with outsiders other than the children attending school. They appear completely human, but they eat food that seems completely inedible by any normal human being and they each have their own peculiar qualities that seem beyond those of normal humans such as Uncle Fester's ability to generate electricity. If they do have visitors, they are usually other family members from some remote area who display these same characteristics. The show never explains the origin of the Addams' or their great wealth - that's just part of their intrigue. There are a few episodes here and there that reference popular culture as it existed then such as "Lurch the Teenage Idol" which pokes fun of the early Beatles and similar rock bands of the time. For the most part, though, the show is pretty much timeless and thus is still funny today.
