Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

ninja_glace One thing which most Americans do not remember about the 1960s is the influential role played by President John F. Kennedy and his wife Jackie in shaping the culture of the time. For most Americans, Jack and Jackie were the perfect couple-- everyone aspired to be like them, even if they came from communities which were being marginalized by the existing social order.When Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, the social order broke down almost completely. People started to lose faith in what had previously taken been for granted, and families similar to the one portrayed in this show would have been a lot more common than people seem to realize. They aren't monsters-- they're regular people like you and me, just different.

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+

AaronCapenBanner They are creepy and kooky, mysterious and spooky, and altogether...splendid! This is the Addams Family, a clever and very funny show about a close-knit family of affluent oddballs(according to the "normal" people who visit their home!)who just want to be happy and do their thing(so to speak!) whether that be moon bathing, bobbing for crabs on their favorite holiday(Halloween of course!) or romps in the swamps(backyard variety)this series is one that can be viewed as a clever satire about what is considered normal versus weird, sane versus insane, scary versus comedic, all in a very funny package of two seasons and 64 episodes.A shame this was canceled after only two years, but then it would have gone to color, and perhaps some of the atmosphere that the beautiful black & white filming gave us would have been lost.Fans would not mind paying a personal visit to this wonderful home on 000 Cemetery Ridge!

tracyfigueira Audiences have always been divided between the Munsters and the Addams Family. Certainly it was easier to sympathize with the Munsters, who underneath their grotesque appearance were basically a sympathetic blue-collar family while the Addamses were wealthy eccentrics whose lifestyle was like something out of a Bunuel movie. Still, the Addamses had their good points. They were a close knit family with strong values; like the Munsters they were actually quite traditional underneath their macabre appearance. Gomez (John Astin) was an educated, cultivated businessman and entrepreneur who provided his family with an enviable lifestyle but who was always kind and generous to those less fortunate than himself. Morticia (Carolyn Jones) was a Gothic beauty who could have been painted by Goya (it's no surprise the Addamses were Spanish). Uncle Fester (Jackie Coogan) was hilarious, but the character I identified with the most was eternally grumpy butler Lurch (Ted Cassidy, a fellow Texan). While I liked "The Munsters" better, I will always have a soft spot for "The Addams Family."
