The Addams Family is better than The Munsters
BrdwyGrl said
It's a simple fact that the Addams Family has more staying power than The Munsters.
The Addams Family started off as a comic in the 1930's, then a tv series (twice over), then animated, and then went to the big screen.
And don't forget about Thing! He/It was the funniest severed hand on television.
Oh yeah, he was the only severed hand on television. Hmmm....

munsters...gay adams family ....funny but now somewhat overrated in certian ways

Right.....how did you come to the conclusion that the entire Addams Family ****? Obviously at the very least Gomez and Morticia were not gay because they had children.
I am afraid you might want to come up with a better argument than that!
And by the way, they made a dark chocolate M&M's commercial to the opening music of the show. The M&Ms were made to look like the members of the Addams Family and even snapped their little white gloved fingers. I just don't think you could get any cooler than that.
Like this throwdown?

I love the Addams family- those movies were HILARIOUS. "Don't torture yourself, Gomez-- that's my job." Oh, I loved those growing up! I was such a strange child...

Didn't the Munsters have that hot daughter who wasn't ghoulish in any way?

Yes. And I'll take Christina Ricci any day. I had a crush on her back when the the original came out too. Seems to have not gone away really.

I liked both shows but Addams is easily the better one.
Herman Munster was just too simple and I always hated how the beautiful daughter/niece blonde would be alone & miserable. The family as a whole always seemed to be a bit sad about being misunderstood.
But the Addams Family seemed to relish being different. The main couple of the Addams loved each other a lot and let everybody know it. The kids were demented and naughty, not apologetic. The butler was cool & creepy, Uncle Fester, The Thing... The hip opening music & song... Yup! The Addams Family tv show ruled.

I prefer the Munsters myself, but it'd be nice to see a legitimate argument for them

Ahh yes - I remember those days, staying home sick from school as a kid (or in the summer if it was too hot or raining outside) flipping around the channels and finding those old, black & white monster shows to while away the hours. I always liked The Addams Family WAY better. Far superior theme song too! I always had a problem with how painfully DUMB Herman was. From what I can recall - the Addams's were far funnier AND more clever. So my vote has to go to The Addams Family.
