ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Dalbert Pringle Come on down to the spooky-looking mansion at 1313 Mockingbird Lane and join The Munsters, a happy family of friendly "monsters", who (consider themselves "normal") manage to get themselves into all sorts of silly, hair-raising situations that have the folks in town running away in fright.This goofy, yet, fun and good-natured TV Sit-Com from the mid-1960s is enjoyable entertainment for all ages.The crazy antics of Fred Gwynne, as Herman Munster, and Al Lewis, as Grandpa, are the highlight of the show.Filmed in black and white - I really liked this show's spooky, up-tempo theme music.
tymagnie I thought I'd give it a try as an adult. Now that I've seen it again I'm sorry to report that this show is really poorly written. I enjoy a lot of old shows and more specifically old radio shows. So I'm not just someone comparing older shows to what's done recently. That being said I found myself wondering "have these writers ever even heard a joke before? Much less written one." If it weren't for the insane amount of canned laughter I might not have even realized that these things that were said were supposed to be jokes. The episode where the father goes to town to purchase a car for his daughter is particularly confounding. One has to wonder if a script was even written or if they were thinking "we'll just speed up the camera and have someone fall down a lot". I watch it gawking at the screen trying to comprehend how the people that were involved in a delightful show "leave it to beaver" spawned this misguided "comedy".
samcracc I have seen this show on Tvland and it is an excellent show. Fred Gwynne as Herman Munster was outstanding. Al Lewis as Grandpa Munster was funny. Yvonne De Carlo as Lily Munster was brilliant Pat Priest as Marilyn Munster and Butch Patrick as Eddie Wolfgang Munster where cute. The Munsters are a weird but honest family. Herman (the father) is a representation of Frankenstein's monster. Lily (his wife) and Grandpa (her father) are vampires. Eddie (their little son) is a werewolf. Marilyn (their niece) is the only normal one (that is the ugly duck of the family). This show is excellent watch The Munsters soon or if you can not find TV land buy the season.
Catherine_Grace_Zeh "THE MUNSTERS," in my opinion, is a must-see CBS hit! Despite the fact that I've never seen every episode, I still enjoyed it. It's hard to say which one is my favorite. Also, I really loved the theme song. If you ask me, even though I liked everyone, it would have been nice if everyone had stayed on the show throughout its entire run. Everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, even though it can be seen on TV Land now, I strongly recommend you catch it just in case it goes off the air for good.
