The Wild Life of Lisa Loring Wednesday Addams Family TV
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 жов 2022
- Today Cool Classics takes a deep dive into the life Lisa Loring, who played Wednesday Addams on the 1964 TV Series, The Addams Family. Her childhood was not traditional by any means.
We take a look at her first Television appearance on Dr Kildare and the ones after The Addams Family. Such as the Phyllis Diller Show and The Girl From UNCLE
We look into all of her husbands, daughters and her work in the Adult Entertainment Industry.
Lisa had some serious hardships along the way, and I am glad that she is such a strong woman, to be able to overcome them.
I hope you enjoy this Biography and my other documentaries.

Thank You everyone for the Prayers and Well Wishes!
I am not sure when or if I post again on Cool Classics.
Been focusing on work and spending time with my daughters.
I recently started making a few videos of us exploring old or Freaky places, along with doing some public services, like cleaning up places and cemeteries. If you interested, here is the link to the channel.

Again, thank you for being so Cool!
My favorite part of this story is that the actor who played Uncle Fester made sure those kids got paid properly. Respect.
Yes, the Coogan Act made sure that in CA child actors had some rights. Unfortunately, this did not carry over to other states and there were loopholes, but God bless that man for taking his personal loss into a crusade to help other child actors. True legend.
Jackie Coogan was a class act .
Jackie Coogan was a child actor himself and had been exploited. He was part of the Our Gang group as well as other rolls
His parents squandered all his money when he was a child actor. He made sure that would never happen to children he worked with.
@@TheMrPeteChannel God bless him for it! "His" law and others help young actors to his day!
R.I.P. Lisa, those dancig moves as a little girl will remain memorable and hopefully come back to life one day, absolutely legendary. Loved this video❤
💜
No one can play Wednesday like Lisa. She was perfect.
Yes. Lisa Loring was the perfect Wednesday. But Christina Ricci from both "The Addams Family" (1991) and "Addams Family Values" (1993) was a fantastic Wednesday and Jenna Ortega from Netflix's "Wednesday" is a perfect reimagining of a TV classic.
@@joerubi6249 That's like saying a Beatles cover band is nearly as good, if not better than the Beatles themselves.
@@bobstuckrath1805 Bob, that's understandable. Though both Ricci and Ortega have their own interpretations of Wednesday Addams, Lisa Loring was the one that set the standard. Besides, Netflix's recent movie adaptation of "The Munsters" was so terrible that thankfully, it will NOT be remade as a series because it could NEVER be taken seriously.
She was 🚮
@@i_trollforfun3092I feel like your an expert in trash.
Lisa and Ted's dance scene is eternal. Thank you.
The quality of this TV recording is incredible.
RIP, Lisa Loring. She'll always be the ultimate Wednesday Addams.
gone too soon RIP Lisa Loring you'll always be Wednesday Addams
Lol obviously you guys didn’t hang in for the end of the video…she’s still alive
@@marlonclark1896 oh I didn’t realize she died a few days ago, RIP
Clot shot
@@believeinjesus8862 So there's 2 fairy tales this troll believes in.
She was natural child actor. I’m happy Jackie Coogan was there to help her. I wonder how Lisa’s life would have been had her mom not been an alcoholic. Thank you for your research & video! Lisa passed away too young. 😔❤️
" Little girl, your doll has no head"
Wednesday, "She's Marie Antoinette." (Delivered deadpan and matter of fact, making this classic!)
🤣
What a good man Jackie Coogan was to have helped out Lisa when no one else was.
R.I.P. Lisa Loring, the original and BEST Wednesday Addams!
thank you for a very caring biography of Lisa. She was beautiful in person and in character, and she deserved a tribute like this
Rest in Peace..You were an unforgettable child talent. Thank you for the entertainment. 🙏✝️🕊️
Ugh, it would be so fun to see behind-the-scenes things, and watch Carolyn Jones interacting with Lisa and John off set. everyone always said how much fun Carolyn was behind-the-scenes, and how Lisa would spend hours in her dressing room. I feel like those moments could be so sweet. I wish they saved bloopers and behind the scenes stuff back then. However, I’m sure those things are out there somewhere, I just wish there was access to them
I'm so glad I found this channel. I loved this show as a kid. Uncle Fester is so awesome to take care of those kids!
Lisa is a pioneer, knowing what she's gone through makes me feel validated for not 'experimenting' in my life. My family's got the addictive gene too and it's scary/sad. It's a shame she had so many challenges in her life.
Just heard she passed away. I think we all loved her and our childhood memories. May she R.I.P.
That’s something eerie right there: When Lisa landed the role of Wednesday, the Addams Family show debuted in ‘64. By the time the show was cancelled 2 years later, she had been in a total of 64 episodes … and now, we have just learned the sad news that Lisa Loring has passed away … at the age of 64…😳😳😳
*Gets chills*
Actually she wasn't in all 64 episodes. There were many in which the kids did not appear, and for Lisa there are 27 episodes that are credit only.
@seansyphers
The lives of luciferians are completely controlled/scripted, to their very deaths. Gematria/numerology.
Freaky facts and I'm watching this on Halloween night and only just found out she passed away RIP 🙏 😢
RIP Lisa. You were a real treasure! 😢
We grow up watching these kids on tv when we were kids.Not knowing what they went through after the cameras stopped rolling for them..I was never a child star but i can relate to a tough childhood and later drug addiction I was a drug addict for 25 years of my adult life..Im happy to say im clean five years now..And im happy when one of the child stars that I watched as a kid gets clean to..
Oh My God ! The look Lisa gave to Dr Kildare right after he choked: that was priceless ! 😄 And she was only three ? Great mastering of the emotions in her face ! No wonder she later got the role of Wednesday, she was born for it ! 🤗
I caught that too! The spirit of WEDNESDAY was ALWAYS in her! lol!
She had a few moment of precocious Wednesday malevolence in the Dr. Kildare episode. The 'death look'.
i met lisa loring at a spookyworld thing we had a nice chat she seemed very nice
Those two shows, Kildare and Addams, are actually out of the same studio: MGM 🦁 Television 📺 (Filmways for our lovable monsters 👺) now snap 🫰 those fingers - click click and sing (Vic Mizzy) they’re creepy and they’re spooky they’re creepy and they’re police they’re altogether police, the Addams family.(c) 1964 MGM Filmeays Orion snap snap Gomez “Tish, that’s French”!
Yes that look... cute and evil. Perfect
Lisa was my First (She gave me a kiss on my cheek because I gave her a cookie from my lunch) Girlfriend at 7 years old. Her Name then was Lisa DeCinces. We both went to Dixie Canyon Elementary School. She would miss school sometimes, Because she would be schooled on the movie set. I went to her house a few times for birthday party’s and such. She lived on sunnyslope ave Sherman Oaks in the San Fernando and if I recall at the time her guardian was her Grandmother. Many years later I was working in a Nightclub called Sasch in Studio City when in walks this lady. She walked up to my section on the bar. Paused and said do I know you. She told me her name was Lisa loring. After short conversation she said oh my god did you go to Dixie Elementary school. We talked in between me serving people for about 30 minutes, she said She had a Crush on me in elementary school, then she left and I never saw her again. Last, what’s funny was I was just telling someone this same story a week ago.
😮Thank You for sharing this! I hope she sees your reply👍
Sure, dude
on the doorknob its from eras gone by more european in styling
You're a delusional liar.
What a great memory.
I love that dance. I don't care how many times I see it. She was tied with Uncle Fester as my favorite character when I watched the reruns as a kid in the 70s.
I liked uncle Fester on the Brady Bunch. He was the cat that took Mrs. Brady to court... wore the knock brace at the trial, only to be duped by Mike and his 💼
P
I was stunned to see the news today about her passing away. RIP Wednesday. 😢
She was absolutely beautiful. I've always had a thing for Red heads, and she was perfect. I love the comment about how the actor who played uncle Fester protected those two children.
Another total winner for CC! Lisa Loring, still a BEAUTIFUL and TALENTED one of a kind lady to this very day.
I'm glad all the adults took good care of that little sweetheart while she was on the Adams family. Big ol Lerch dancing her is the cutest thing.
Lurch......
Yeah she definitely fell in with the right crowd with Jackie Coogan to look after her.
Now Lurch is married to the Mayor of Chicago
@@gasmith7486 lurch is dead
Yes she was so cute 🥰
Very good to see our original Wednesday in a happy place. Lisa Loring is responsible for a lot of great childhood memories. Thanks for this update.
1 hour to soon
@@fallendevonish1869 Found out after this post she had passed away. She was too young to go.
In 1987 I had a major operation upon my hip and was only 16 years old stuck in hospital for 3 months in a full hip cast... Not able to walk and at 5 o'clock dinner time The Addams Family followed by The Munsters and The Beverly Hill Billies which I'd grown up watching as a kid but it was the highlight of my day...a great comfort at a very uncomfortable time! Thanks for the info 😊
💜
It seems Lisa Loring is a survivor in an otherwise thankless industry. Thanks for the great story!
Wow. I worked on the island of Kwajalein, Marshall Islands for several years. Had no idea Wednesday (Lisa Loring) was born on that tiny potato chip of an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean....2,500 miles west of Hawaii.
🏴☠
You've done this woman a good service, shown her in the best possible light
What a beautiful lady and she was one of my favorite characters growing up. I know her wing's were ready but our hearts were not.🙏😇❣️🌹 Heaven is your's now Lisa.🤟
I love your video's and how you bring these actors back to life, this one is really cool.
She's a winner in my eye's. I can relate 2 her. How beautiful an smart she is.
Wow, what a roller-coaster of a story. They could make this into an interesting movie.
Fantastic job with this minibio! Kudos!
I met Lisa when I was an editor for an entertainment magazine in So. Cal., 1986-87, and attended the VSDA (Video Software Dealers Association) convention in Las Vegas. As I was strolling through the booths on the "adult" side of the convention floor, I was magnetically drawn to a booth occupied by a stunning brunette.
We started chatting, and I asked her if she was in the (adult) business. She said, "No, but my husband is." Her husband, at that time, was the famous Jerry Butler. That was surprise Numero Uno. Then I asked if she had done any acting. Rather coyly, Lisa said, "I was a child actor on TV. Do you remember The Addams Family?" I stared ... then blurted: "Little Wednesday?" Lisa returned a bright smile, and I knew I'd nailed it.
Now, this wasn't any kind of news I could work into our magazine; however, over the years, it's made for what I think is a pretty good story -- one which I tell on a fairly regular basis.
Jackie Coogan was an army drinking buddy of one of my uncles . I heard that he got swindled out of his money working in the motion picture business by his parents. I fondly watched the Addams family when it first ran in the mid 1960's on a 1948 Black and White Zenith console television with a round picture tube. The next year my father purchased a 1965 Magnavox Color television console for the basement.
What a great friggin story seems like a great guy to be a drinking buddy
My parents had a Magnavox Color TV when I was a kid in the early 70s
My Father swore to only buy American for the longest time. That is why he always kept getting Magnavox products.
Yes, and it was he who a law was passed for children working in film/ TV industry....The Coogan Act.
I see what's happening here, we are going to get a great coogan vid in next months, but everyone needs to pitch in and help with any info, leads, links, anything to help in depth study of Jackie, I suggested the boy king autobiography available on Amazon to him a couple weeks ago
Jackie Coogan was an Air Commando who served in South East Asia during WW2. He was able to have latest release movies sent to his base for everyones enjoyment via his Hollywood contacts.
I loved the old school American TV shows, classic TV
She was so beautiful, it's hard to understand why she didn't get other major Hollywood roles. Thanks for the video.
I'm a former classmate of Lisa's from Millikan Jr. High School. She was beautiful, sweet, but kept to herself. Since there were a lot of child actors and children of actors at this school, it was a place where they could feel a little "normal" around the rest of us kids who had newspaper routes and mowed lawns to make money. So very happy to hear she's doing well.
💜👍
That's really nice of you to say and she does seem like a very nice person
Door knobs in the center of the front door were very stylish and somewhat popular in the 50’s - 70’s. They were even more a wow factor on large double front doors and often had decorative surrounds (like star or abstract shapes).
Family Affair. Watch an episode of Family Affair and you will see the same type of doorknob. It could've even been the same set they used for filming for all we know.
If you watch an episode of I Dream of Jeannie, where she's riding in a car through the neighborhood, you'll see Samantha and Darren's house from Bewitched.
Back then there was a studio "neighborhood" street to film on. I believe the Munsters house was there, as well, just farther out so as not to be seen unless it was actually needed.
I live in an old building...built in the 50s. My front door still has a patch over from where the door knob was moved and recently some of the doors still had the door knob in the center. My building only changed out the fuses from the old glass fuses like a little over a year ago! O.o
F.O.Dorthy, I was going to say the same thing. I notice in a lot of old movies. Knob closer to the hinges would make it harder to open, but I guess they thought it was stylish.
What a fascinating presentation. The way she danced with Lurch! She had some moves!!!
Ted Cassidy it use to live in my hometown. He would shop in our food market. That guy had gigantic hands, and the tallest man I've ever seen. Great info on Lisa, RIP and Godspeed. Your fans will surely miss you.
Wednesday teaching Lurch to dance produced two of the best scenes in 60s comedy.
I wonder if that was really a dance move and somebody told her to do it like that or if she made it up herself. whatever the case it looks freakin hilarious lol
Lisa was so adorable as Wednesday. The show was great with an unforgettable cast. I still watch the series occasionally. Along with Get Smart, The Munsters, I Dream of Jeannie, Happy Days, Hogan's Heroes, M.A.S.H and the like.
Brady Bunch!

Very cool, Cool Classics. RIP Wednesday Addams, you were awesome!
Passed away on saturday, Lord rest her soul.
Rest in Peace, Lisa Loring 😔
Thank you, Cool Classics, for all the research and effort that you put into your video bios. They're very interesting, informative, and well done!
Thank You Helene.
Such sad news to wake up to. Making this video really connected me to Lisa. I was rooting for her 💜
Great video, one of my favorite TV shows growing up.
It is a Classic :)
Wednesday/Lisa is a TV Icon, and she's a real icon in her life, and bless her for her work and her life, and her tough spirit!
RIP Lisa Loring. She was the ultimate Wednesday Addams and Jenna Ortega from Netflix's "Wednesday" would make LL proud.
Not really.... That new show sucks
@@MrMackmonster Some do think the show's corny. Others do not. But considering the recent crop of mediocrity that Netflix has these days, "Wednesday" is considered an improvement.
That was definitely my favorite episode. I could've sworn I saw her getting-down in another episode with a transistor radio in her hand. That kid could boogie.
The girl was doin' the James Brown!
I’m so happy that they did this filming the right way and treated the kids the way they should
Jackie Coogan also had quite a wild life, and more than one historical contribution as well...
Lisa shows us all that we can rise above the hard things we have gone through and persevere . Her strength is an inspiration to me . Thank you Lisa !
She’s a beautiful woman still. Wednesday Addams is a legend and an icon. Happy to know Lisa is healthy and working the cons. Love your vids.
Is she still around. Now days. ???????
@@JOHNSMITH-vx5yz yes, healthy and meeting fans at conventions
Lisa is still a beautiful woman. I was in my teens when she played Wednesday Addams. Her precocious charms were so natural. She was awesome.
I hope Lisa has a long and happy life. If she needs help I available any time. Love you LisaXX
Thanks for the fun times Lisa and the whole Addams family crew r.i.p to all.
I was waiting for the horrible ending to Lisa's story. So glad she's doing ok. I love the Addams family show. Thank you for sharing this video
They really should get Lisa Loring to play Morticia in a modern Addams Family remake. Even if she doesnt work, it'd still be entertaining to see.
They should definitely at least give her some type of cameo
At 2:12 the doorknob in the middle of the door. That was very LA. A neighbor in the 60's had door like that on her "Hollywood" house in suburban Stockton, CA. She was from LA and very glamorous. Her house also had a sunken "conversation pit", another must-have with the Hollywood set. She smoked Pall Malls and drank martinis and was the subject of gossip throughout the neighborhood.
Another cool classic. So happy things turned out well for Lisa. We all take a wrong turn here and there but only the strong survive!
Check out the apartment door for the show Family Affair.
Man those 60's and early 70's, sunken, conversation pits were all the rage.
Lots of cigarettes were smoked in them lol
Great job! God bless this young woman for enduring and overcoming the challenges placed in her way. Wish her all the best!
💜
Thanks for the memories! Lisa and I were friends when she relocated from Hollywood to New York for her TV soap opera show. I flew there to visit her but eventually lost contact. She was such a sweetheart and I’m happy to hear she is alive and well. I truly hope our paths cross again someday.
💜
Loved this show so much. Wonderful cast!
Couldn't agree more!
What a life! Glad she made it out through all that mess! You would have never known all she has been through and she also became very beautiful .
Thanx for the honest back story .
Good to hear she made it out alive, so many didn't .
-Nate
Amazing tribute to a talented lady.
Uncle Festor! Thank you for looking out for the kids! Much Respect to you! Cheers!
The dancing scene made me smile so huge! Lisa was such a cutie. I never really watched Addams Family (just the movies with christina ricci as Wednesday) but this episode of Cool Classics peaked my interests for sure!
Wednesday has moves to make James Brown proud! And was Lurch actually... krumping??
I like the mashup video of her and lurch dancing to megadeths music. It’s boss!!
Always have loved 🥰 Lisa loring ❤️
*piqued
Thank you for showing me all this top secret knowledge of my childhood actors
It's my pleasure
I just love the way you open your videos; “heeeeeeee welcommmee back”. Such an relaxing voice, with such interesting content. I always think I already know scoot but then I see your videos. Thnx again!
😊 thank you
Man, she even looks like Carolyn Jones in her later years! That's crazy!
WOW! Love it! I loved her in The Adams Family. Thank you.
The episode where she teaches Lurch to dance was amazing! She had James Brown foot movements! Very smooth and soulful. Very nice upload! 🙂👍
Rip Lisa Loring
I remember watching the Addams family when I was little and I love the show along with the Munsters also. I didn’t realize as she grew up how beautiful she became, she was gorgeous. I’m happy her life turned out OK in the end and she got rid of the no good guys.
One of the greatest shows of all time! You do good work, bro. I'm glad I found your channel!
Thank You So Much! :)
The memories. Thank you for sharing.
That darn dance scene is one of theatre movie great visions. It's so marvelous to see a tiny person successfully asserting a huge fellow into agreement. Mostly that she looked so adorable while doing so.
"theatre movie"??? Dude it was a tv show in the 60s. There was no cable tv yet so people would gather around the ole' tube tv and watch funny shows. You had to be there when they came on or you were out of luck-no recording stuff for watching later. I grew up in the 70s so it was on tv all the time in reruns. It was a great show, they had a pet under the stairs that scared me every time the stairs lifted up-fog and growling etc. Uncle Fester was also always concocting stuff in his lab that would fail hysterically. Yeah they made a movie out of this tv show as well like everything else copied from my youth.
@@edwardschmitt5710 references acting, by actors (& actresses) yes it was on television if y'all had one.
2nd comment: oh my, you did great research. My mind is blown! Wow, I remember these shows and flicks (not the adult ones)...I had no idea! 🤯
You can't remember any of those adult flicks? I'm curious now and I wanna know what films she's worked on in the adult industry.
Really cute as a little girl and really beautiful as an adult. A great little actress. I'm glad that she had a somewhat normal life and not like many other child actors/actresses.
It’s good to hear a happy ending for a child star of the 70’s and 80’s. So many tragedies of that era in Hollywood. I’m happy to hear she’s alive and well. She is an icon. ❤😊
Well done, Jesus she is beautiful, I never knew that she developed into such a beautiful woman.
Addams Family was my fav TV family. The casting was perfect.
Thank you for a wonderful story with a happy ending
Very interesting and very well done sir. I'd keep producing more of these types of biographies, there's definitely an audience and you're good at doing it. Sounds like you found your niche.
When she did the dance with lurch she was adorable.
I have nothing but wonderful memories of watching the Addams Family in my childhood, I'm so glad Lisa came through all of her challenges, I was shocked when you said she was married and a mother at 15, wow! Loved seeing this video, you always do such an incredible job, thank you :)
Yay Lisa! Now Wednesday movie or tv show cameo! God has her safely protected. Phew!
The entire original cast was the absolute best. I NEVER understood people saying that Angelica Huston nailed it. She was just so coarse looking and there was never chemistry with her male lead
I grew up with a kid who's house had a door knob like that one, right in the middle of the door. I thought it was the coolest thing. Never have seen another one until now.
I loved her. She was on my mom’s soap opera when I was a kid too.
As ahead was 2 years older then me,I watched the show everyday after school and I had the biggest crush on her!
The casting was perfect!!!
She's an amazing woman, and Mom.
I'm blown away she has 49(?) & 41 y/o daughters, at 65.
I hope she is well, happy, lives long, and prospers.
Oh, she's on Twitter, and very sweet!
She's 64
Why is she an amazing woman and "mom" ....i presume you mean mother.
If she's so amazing, why did she get divorced four times?
@@jasonalexander845 she was so amazing she managed to have 4 husbands!! What a gal!!
I can't even imagine how much research goes into your videos. You're writing, arrangement and presentation are really second to none. Thanks for another wonderful, interesting and informative video.
Wow, thank you!
TFS this video. Lisa was so beautiful . 🙏🙏💜💜 may she Rest In Peace. Gone too soon.
🙏💜
lisa loring Oh my what a beauty. what a great story and told so well. Watched till the end. wonderful!
I remember and enjoyed her as Cricket Montgomery on the soap As The World Turns. She was gorgeous. I didn't realize it was for only 8 episodes.
