Guildenstern Mother posted:They're one of the few examples of a good relationship based on love, respect, and communication in all of television, isn't that magical and spooky enough for you? All the conflict comes from outsiders not being able to deal with them so they never had to rely on some dumb family drama. Morticia and Gomez are legit relationship goals

Wednesday is an intelligent, confident, and socially conscious child that any parent should be proud of but I can't remember a thing about Pugsley's personality aside from fat.

The Addams Family is the perfect model of a happy loving goth couple, OP also, as the song says, their house is a museum where people come to see'em pretty self explanatory tbh

I think Pugsley is supposed to be pretty smart as well Charles Addams posted:An energetic monster of a boy…blond red hair, popped blue eyes and a dedicated troublemaker, in other words, the kid next door…genius in his own way, he makes toy guillotines, full size racks, threatens to poison his sister, can turn himself into a Mr. Hyde with an ordinary chemical set…his voice is hoarse…is sometimes allowed an occasional cigar. he is also fat quote:In all incarnations, he is overweight. In the original series, Pugsley is 1.42 metres tall and weighs 112 pounds. In the television series, Pugsley usually eats over five pieces of cake at birthday parties.

Justin Godscock posted:Who cares The Munsters were better. Wtf The Addams family kicks the poo poo out of The Munsters. I mean don't get me wrong I don't hate The Munsters and Lily Munster is hot and all but it always came across as a fairly generic 60s sitcom with a classic horror theme gimmick.

They're a cool, kooky family. Their customs and beliefs might seem strange to you at first, but they ultimately are a warm and loving family that embraces creativity and personal expression.

Ghouls, maybe? What the gently caress are ghouls

Ghouls usually eat human flesh, so I don't think the Addams Family falls under that. Gomez is just like a gangster guy, right? He's the patriarch of the family and all but he feels the least supernatural of them all. Fester at least can make light bulbs shine in his mouth and stuff, and the kids are seemingly immortal.

A live action movie with Oscar Isaac and Chalize Theron as Gomez and Morticia could have been amazing, but we got a bland insipid cartoon instead ![]()

bitterandtwisted posted:A live action movie with Oscar Isaac and Chalize Theron as Gomez and Morticia could have been amazing, but we got a bland insipid cartoon instead I saw the first one for free and found it just so generically average and quite boring. I know the character designs are closer to Charles Addams’ drawings, but I couldn’t get over Wednesday’s encephalitic head.

So to lighten myself up after thinking about the bland animated remake, I thought of the slide scene in the first movie and smiled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjVYH0QCTKU Not only does the song fill me with stupid joy, but Raul Julia is just having the goddamn time of his life going down the slide ![]()

I've been watching some of the old show. I had no idea Uncle Fester was played by one of the first child actors ever. Good for him![]()

Is the original show or movies streaming anywhere? I don't think I've seen more than bits and pieces of them but thread reminded me they are supposed to be really good.

Professor Wayne posted:I've been watching some of the old show. I had no idea Uncle Fester was played by one of the first child actors ever. Good for him Yeah, and what his parents did to him inspired the Coogan Act, which forces adults to put the funds that child actors earn into a separately held account so their parents can't use it on themselves https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Child_Actor%27s_Bill Also you know Gomez has like a monster hog. It's just gargantuan. It puts Milton Berle to shame. That's why Morticia is happy all the time

Living next to the Addams for Halloween must be amazing. They probably give out gold from sunken pirate ships and stuff like that.

The acting in the original series is great. They’re a wonderful, loving, supportive family. It’s the mysterious and spooky part that makes them interesting compared to all the bland family sitcoms of the 60s. Also the original 1 panel comics from the 40s are really weird and sometimes dark. The only New Yorker comics I’ve even been able to understand. ![]()

It’s the mysterious and spooky part that makes them interesting compared to all the bland family sitcoms of the 60s. they also clearly love each other and their kids. like alot of sitcoms back then(and now to various degrees) the couples were weird assholes who just quietly hated each other. like not every relationship in media needs to be a mountain goats song.

He's a defense lawyer who loves losing cases and boasts about how many criminals he's put in jail because of how bad he is at it. I think the rest of his wealth supposedly comes from bizarrely lucky investments or something like that.
