Morticia, The Matchmaker (Full Episode) | MGM
• Morticia, The Matchmak...
“Think of your wife and children.”
“I have no wife and children.”
“Then think of mine.”
That was hilarious!!!!🤣🤣❣
Every boss ever.
Lol, I was reading along your comment when exactly those words were spoken :)
🤣😂
His face lol 😂
"You motherf-"
I love the running gag of morticia always knitting some odd shaped sweater for a family member
How rude................ those sweaters look very cozy. They're not odd at all.
Same tho
@@lavenderlife2274 question for you
One time she even knitted a sweater for Pugsley's 🐙 octopus.
@@StefonTV1 lol
Whoever at MGM decided to put these on UA-cam, you should get a raise 💰
👇🏻 agrees
I'll give them a gold star in my book to whoever was was kind enough to post these shows again..

Aggred
George Plagianos good idea
Whoever it was at MGM who had the genius idea to put these episodes up on UA-cam, sincerely: thank you. You are a stand-up lady or gentleman, an all round good egg, and have an open invitation to come and have a cup of tea with me should you ever find yourself in Canterbury (England).
gunnersaurus17 ooh Canterbury!
Canterbury. It's like New York, if you've never been to New York, seen a picture of New York or heard New York described. But then I'm guessing you might live in Canterbury too, so I suppose you already know it's like New York ;)
Put the kettle on Love, am ẻnoute from Villas, NJ.
Glad you like thí show from US, I find it a hoot.
Used to watch Eastenders from UK. Are they still on? Also, had friends from N.Harrow, UK.
And should the person drop by Denmark, I will provide tea! Such wonderfull person, who have been giving us such gift, should always have a open invitation. 🖤🖤🖤
And if you ever come to HEL (Helsinki, Finland), I'll get us some blood of my enemies while we have a nice moon-bath. 🖤
I love how cousin Melancholia (who isn’t an Addams by blood) is a strange person like them, but not nearly as comfortable as them. The Addams family wives are a rare breed indeed.
It begs the question though. What happens to Wednesday when she’s grown up?
Thomas Parsons
There's adult wednesday, a sort of spin off you can watch in YT.
It's because Melancholia is related to Morticia who has all kinds of weird cousins & relatives, apart from Her normal Mother & Sister. But, it makes sense if She's Gomez's perfect match & they're supposed to be the dark weird family they are. Though, they're being normal in their eyes.
@@vorablackwitch9778 Count Morticia's sister Ophelia as another one of the weird relatives. She's just as an oddball herself, with daisies growing on head and her constant use of judo skills on her endless list of ex-fiances as well as Gomez.
But she rocks the Princess Leia hairdo.
Lurch’s groaning never gets old. 😂
It was my favorite part, right after "follow me."
He wasn't supposed to talk at all but once be ad-libbed "you rang" during rehearsal, producers fell in love with the voice and gave him several speaking parts in each episode!
I can see why he’s such a play boy!
Mike Oiler
I wasn’t expecting the groan, and it cracked me up! Who could have expected that much emotion from Lurch (even with his never changing expression) hahah 😂
Morticia to me was so amazing. It was almost like she glides across a room in that dress. Carolyn Jones. Never forgotten. Never duplicated
They tried but it was not the same quality as the original
I had the biggest crush on morticia, and watching these re- runs makes me realize that I still do. Lol 🥰
Wait, i had a crush on morticia too.
So, i wasnt that weird.
@@WayneMickel Dear Wayne , I thought that this one was the original. Carolyn Jones I think 🧐 because as a little girl , I idolised her beauty and reminded me of Scarlet O’Hara I’m Gone With the Wind and many other classic glamours. Let me know any details because I LOVE ❤️ THIS FAMILY as do millions!!!
@@kathrynbillinghurst188 She was a real beauty they could never remake this as good as the original everyone on this show was great.
"I got to put something in my car"
"what?"
"ME"
that was too relatable
I'm gonna be honest, and I am sure the producers and writers knew what they were doing then. But today, despite their gloomy outward appearance (Though Morticia is hot as) The Addams are very optimistic and positive and never think the worse of people. Phone is hang up, they think an accidental disconnection took place. Boy a lot of us could use this sort of positive outlook in this day and age.
I think that was the point - the Addams are nice, but have different aesthetic sense and other people cannot look past their appearance (or rather, the appearance of their house) and their hobbies.
That’s sort of the joke- they’re extremely eccentric, but they are the nicest people you could ever meet. During the very conformist mid-20th century, this was considered a shocking contrast.
DEEP
gutz1981 in this day and age we could use a super being who’s magical and can use the passing of time as a lotion. You know. *a god.*
@Teucer Russell That's true
John Astin thoroughly pours himself into his role. Nothing forced at all, simply natural.
The entire cast is perfect in their roles.
EXACCTLY.... truly gold X33
No offense to Raul Julia but John Astin is Gomez
@@GrosvnerMcaffrey How do you know theyre not one and the same?
John Aniston was the best!
@@GrosvnerMcaffrey Indeed. There's a reason why ABC went with John Astin for the briefly-lived Saturday cartoon.
That Fred guy at the end is one of my favorite people from the show: He turns out to not only still want Melancholia, he was never going to leave her in the first place.
Which means someone perfectly normal has no problem being an Addams by extension.
is it me or is martises cousin to normale to be on any side of the addams tree
Obviously, Fred's not perfectly normal! He seemed controlling & dominating to me, but it looked like Melancholia liked it just fine!!
Gomez is pretty normal too, actually.
I believe in one episode Morticia and grandma remarked about a love spell 'it worked on Gomez!'
From the Soil punch? The man just uppercutted the guy! He didn’t want to fight but he got his jaw busted
@@AudieHolland This episode
'Who could that be?'
'It may not be a "who" dear, it may be a "what"!'
'Ah, you optimist!'
Mortica: have you ever thought of the blissful joy of marriage?
Thing: I’ght, imma head out....
RELATABLE
Lol... almost everyone doesnt wanna get mawwied... X3
The Things of today!!!
On the New neighbors episode Thing was asked if he wanted a female Thing and he motioned no.
My life goal is to have a family as loving and rich as the Adams
Morticia got enough (probably still unmarried) cousins^^
I would love to marry into this family
It's my dream. Not my goal though
@@hofnaerrchen she needs to set me up on a date with one of them then lol.
well first you gotta get the name right ya know the double d makes the difference 😅
The way that Grandmama kept throwing that dust in their faces with no warning whatsoever...😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Yuppy yup yup! 🤣
It might have been a bigger handful each time, too. 😂
I blame the Adams Family for my unrealistic standards of marriage.
datpsychoelische 101 I thought I was the only one. You too?
Those standards are normal. You are not alone
@@ednacole7148 good. I thought I was crazy.
That is what the standard should be for everyone.
Haha haha ..no your right dear .you are !!
Interesting that Melancholia has the pre-Princess Leia hair!
I was thinking that when she showed up, too. Carrie Fisher wore it better, though. =)
Almost a "What if" look into the future had the character after Jedi moved to earth and started life a new.
Well its more of princess leia had melancholias hair
Fun fact: that style comes from a Mexican tribe, Native Americans. There's a few Documentaries about it. It was the inspiration for princes Lea. You can even find photos on Google. Cheers!
Verdade😜😂😂😂😂
Lurch is a playboy? I never would have suspected.
Sharp dresser, great musician and has impeccable manners.
He keeps it on the down-low...
6 feet down, in some cases.
A dedicated bachelor
king is like 6'8 course he gets pus
@@verucasaltshaker7880 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Its so cute how Melancolia is dress up in flower dress, but still feel at home in Adams house
Was that the character who inspired Enid
I still have no idea why everyone were so afraid to be around the Addams’ family!! They’re so polite and accommodating!! I’d live there in an instant!
Yes...very personable! I like Lurch. He is real dapper in the tuxedo!
because they look strange
many judge others based on outward appearance
Me too I'd love to live next to them.
I know, if only they bothered to look past their exotic tastes, I love the addams they are so polite, kind & hospitable I still learn a lot from them ❤️
Same!
I think Carolyn is just so beautiful and little less known fact is that John was in love with carolyn and actually visited her before her death to tell this but by the time he did she was too ill and had already remarried . I think it’s unknown if Carolyn felt the same but John said in a documentary there chemistry was undeniable.
Come to think of it when was John married to the late Patty Duke? Odd no one ever brings her up any of the comments section in the videos I've seen in so many years... yes I know this is The Addams Family but it was Morticia and Gomez.. Morticia and Gomez.etc. I heard John was pretty abusive, psychologically to Patty which made this gifted actress messed her up throughout her life.. I wonder why nobody ever brings her up in these Addams Family comment sections..Was she not worth mention in any of the of the dialogue we're conducting here... I miss her too along with Carolyn
@@georgeplagianos6487 i thought it was Patty Duke's previous marriages that caused her to be that way?
What surprised me just now, watching the title sequence of this episode, was that she had top billing. Was this true throughout?
@@AndersPuschel
Absolutely, she had considerably more star power.
@@AndersPuschel She was already a well known actress back then, but She was looking for Her next best role.
I love how cousin melancholia is one of those characters who’s just fine with the Addams’ house and all of their weird things.
She is family after all. Why wouldn't she be fine?
“No, not Lurch, he is such a playboy.” EXCUSE ME BUT WHY HAVE I NOT HEARD OF THIS AND WHY DO I LOVE IT SO MUCH?!
Because girls love the tall, strong, silent type.
"He's a man, she's a woman: perfect match!" ICONIC
I'm pretty sure somewhere some humourless victim is typing up an email complaining about transphobia.
@@countiblis1246and homophobia. But I like Gomez quote
the addams family deserved at least one more season, brilliant show with a lovely chemistry, very well cast.
There's actually a season two, I hope MGM will upload them too
Gomez “What is so funny?”
Morticia “Oh Gomez, she is crying” 😂😂😂
I'll tell you what's funny: "Love Dust" 🤣🤣🤣
Also, did it really sound like she was laughing to anyone here?
@@chillaxin1926
Jennifer Lopez songs "what is so funny?"
Justin Pullin "ok Jennifer Lopez songs, she is crying 😂😂😂
@@justinpullin98 I don't get it.
I did a UA-cam search for "Jennifer Lopez what's so funny" but all I get as search results is "Jennifer Lopez - It Ain't Funny"
If they had video/audio-editting technologies back in the 60s like they do now and they were somehow able to swap the way Melancholia sounded at 11:40 for the way she sounded at 11:43, then the "What's so funny?" line would be a lot more believable IMHO. She definitely sounded like she was crying at 11:40
Lol
Originally, Lunch was not supposed to talk but once producers heard the voice from Ted, they knew it fit perfectly with the character!
Lunch ??
I love how hospitable the Addams are, yes they are a little off but they are so nice to everyone and its truly so sweet
The Casting was Perfect .. These People will always be the Real Addams Family .. Sheer Genius
The Addams Family was one of the most perfectly cast shows ever, in my opinion.
Gomez: "I am so hungry I could eat a wolf!"
Morticia: "Gomez! You guessed it!"
But what would wolf taste like...dont say chicken.🤔
@@MuttonfudgeRacing probably quite tough, but I can't imagine much more at the moment
Considering wolves are predators, it would probably taste pretty gamey.
@@MuttonfudgeRacing Like a dog, but more... wolfy.
@@CellGames2006 Then I am no longer curious 😄
Looks like they listened to keeping the whole opening. Thanks MGM
I'm just glad they didn't cut the credits from the end.
That credits screen still unnerves me though, how they literally stand there staring into your very being.
@@TheMrRuttazzo at least they blink
@@TheMrRuttazzo Yes, their cold lifeless eyes piercing into you. Isn't it lovely?
Peep the kakegurui pfp
😂😂😂😂
harvey: i dont have wife and kids
his boss: then think of mine
HAHAHAHAHAA
I can listen to Morticia reading a full blown telephone directory and I would love every second of it. :)
She’s absolutely gorgeous. Especially in the opening credits when she flashes that Mona Lisa-esque wisp of a smile.
Yea, so would Gomez ... if she'd speak it in French lol.
@@karleycrawford2959 haha! that's true 😆
I'd listen to Gomez talk all day. I've literally listened to interviews just with him in them before.
It's a shame this series didn't get more seasons, it has definately aged well and beloved by many.
But this Tv show has more than one season.
@@VictoriaReis-en9fz But more than season 2.
The thought of Lurch being a playboy is just too hilarious.
When Gomez grabs a cigar it's always lit.
His cigars auto-light.
Only from the Indian. You’ll see him light others on Lurch’s hand or the two headed turtle.
just googled carolyn jones and found out she already died in 1983. it broke my heart,i swear.
Same here :(
She was so young too. Heartbreaking
I'm surprised they didn't try to set her up with Uncle Fester.
Perhaps is relative
In this version he's Morticia's brother. If Melancolia is her cousin as well, that would too close a relation.
@@Regfife probably right. And if they did have any kids they probably come out 'normal' and not develop mental retardation or down syndrome..
@@Regfife Um actually... if I'm not mistaken, Gomez and Morticia are actually cousins too. I mean, aren't their mothers sisters?
No, grandmama isn't related to Fester, she is Gomez's mother and Fester is the older brother to Morticia's mother, having helped raise her, but to the addams there is hardly a need to include greats or second, third, etc. In the titles of their family, family is family for them, no matter how distant
"I need to put something on the car"
"What?"
" *ME* " 😂😂😂😂
Creepy, Crooky, and all together Spooky. I love seeing all these episodes.
Kooky not crooky
How nice and forward thinking of the Addams to own a Bat reserve in Africa ., hunt caves for new kinds of Spiders and even own an Octopus as a pet .
Octopusses are such intelligent creatures. I wish they had looked after it better.
Let's see, there's Kitty, Cleopatra, the vulture (I forget his name, Tristan & Isold, and the white bear rug...What else? Do we count the catamount clock?
@@jean-paulaudette9246 the vulture was named Zelda if I recall correctly
@@gorlomimargheriti8870 Nice! Graci!
Watched it as a kid, and still watching all these decades later. Great show!
Lurch belongs to me. Just like Wednesday said, “You’ll find a girl that makes you miserable” love him ❤️
can we share?
But didn't you hear, he's a total playboy! 🤣

@@silentassassin47 thank you. My favorite episode and lurch is my favorite character X D
Do you also have his good looks?
Nobody:

Me: “I’m in this post and I don’t like it.”
stargazerlilly608 same
😁
@@Outtacontextouttatime I'd like to make a proposal then.
Don't give up
I’m here by choice and I love it.
the addams family was the best...these episodes never fail to take me to a happy place! :)
Same. It’s one of my go-to feel-good series.
I’ve been LOVING the fact that MGM has been posting these! They’ve been a lot of fun to watch. This one in particular was fun because the entire opening credits were included with the theme song. Morticia was such a stunning woman. Absolutely beautiful.
She’s absolutely gorgeous. Especially in the opening credits when she flashes that Mona Lisa-esque wisp of a smile.
I love how many times they had a full screen shot of Morticia. Those lovely eyes of Carolyn Jones really makes me melt 😍
Black and white does no justice to her eyes. Watch some of her movie roles in color. Yes you will melt. She will never be duplicated.
She’s absolutely gorgeous. Especially in the opening credits when she flashes that Mona Lisa-esque wisp of a smile.
@@sgtmayhem7567Indeed! I replayed that bit repeatedly just to see her lovely smile!
I love how patient Morticia and Gomez are with cousin Melancholia
I'm loving the sound effects whenever Grandmama tosses her magical dust into Ralph's face!
Lurch a playboy. That's a good one and his say on marriage noooooo.
Lol... poor lurch
Who else would love a makeover from Morticia? ❤❤❤
Nikki Derricott me.
Meloncholia cleaned up very well
Me as long as she leaves my hair out of it
Shouldn’t be too difficult! You have plenty of baking powder?
The lady had style.
The fact that Carolyn loved this character so much she kept everything. Her dress, wig, her wicker chair… It was always kept in her room until the day she died. I wish her and John could have been together outside the show, but she died knowing how he really felt all long and he found that out too. I love that they got their backstage kisses when the 60’s era shows wouldnt allow people to kiss on the lips in television. Doesn't sense since they allowed John to kiss her whole body… but a peck on the lips is out of the question. 🙄 They were too sweet and their affection on camera was groundbreaking during this time period.
Hmm, but her wiki pg says she donated the wig and costume, to an acting-focused museum, iirc?
@@iprobablyforgotsomethingshe did. And some scripts were donated to UCLA by her husband who she married shortly before she died.
16:07 Am I dead?
"They thought we'd like to be alone"
"I don't know about "we", but I would" ;D
I always knew Lurch was my spirit animal. 😂😂😂😂
The thought of getting married to Melancholia makes him look like the weight of centuries is upon him...
He rocks
When watching this series. Watch as though you are the director. The execution of the lines, how the emotions are played. How the scene is shot. Then you will see, that this a true comedy classic.
This episode is particularly beautifully acted and scripted, and the comedy timing is just perfect
You can see this especially when Carolyn Jones is playing the dual roles of Morticia and Ophelia, and the shots alternate between Carolyn-as-Tish, Carolyn-as-Ophelia, and the two doubles. Really smooth blocking and editing.
Lurch is such a playboy lol😂🤣
"That Belladonna sauce really brings on the flavor" LoL and hallucinating
Lee Goodman (Mr Harvey) has a great sense of comedic timing here! Great reactions and delivery!
The way Lurch grabs and crunches each visitor's hat is priceless!
I was anticipating that Melancholia was going to get a makeover but didn't expect she'd be a duplicate of Morticia.
Gomez: "Lurch!"
Morticia: "Oh dear, not Lurch. He's such a playboy." 😂 💀
I am 73 and feel like ma ma. It take s my hours to get myself together and I don’t end up in much better shape than she does!🙄
73 huh
You still look lovely :)
I am in heaven being able to watch this show again! A childhood favorite
It boggles my mind that I’ve been an Addams Family fan for 50 years. In the 70’s the re-runs were on Channel 11 WPIX (NY) in the afternoon.
This one has the FULL INTRO YES
Man, the people that made the animated movie were on point with the recreation of the opening. I mean it’s like a complete one-to-one remake and the absolute best way possible!
Agreed. I fangirled over that.
Back in Army Boot Camp , my platoon would march to the tune of Addams Family.
oh they brought back the full opening! nice
Brings back so many memories, smiles, and laughter. Thank you
Fred: You mean I’m going to have to fight for ya?
Ralph: Oh ha no.
Fred: Okay? POW!
Well that guy look well figured like a fighter or grappler..
I love how Gomez & Morticia were pushing the Lawyer to marry Melancholia, all for Her benefit even though He just came for business & wanted nothing to do with Her. I also love how hard they tried to set Her up with a guy to marry & kept on going & going!
Totally enjoyed this episode. Clarence P. Harvey as the unwilling suiter for Melancholia was a riot as well as Morticia announcing she had lots of cousins.
“Do you think it’s fate?”
....rolls eyes “no it’s just my luck” 😂🤣 had me laughing so hard
One of the best shows ever on TV
What a timeless beauty Morticia is. Many women consult a doctor to have that look (but I suppose that wasn't an option these days and what we see is her natural look).
She had a nose job and hated how people treated her better afterward
for those that don't know, lurch was also thing, when there was an episode or scene that required both, one of the producers would step into things role.c
BROOOOOO I'm proud of my country 😂😂😂 Nairobi made it to the Addams Family
4:35 the way her eyes sparkle and light up even if it is edited it looks beautiful
Lol I love the way Lurch grabs the hats off all of the male guests heads. Cracks me up everytime!🤣🤣
Carolyn is unbelievably gorgeous. Vintage AND modern beauty 🖤
The casting in this series is so perfect.
gomez and morticia are simply ADORABLE. i could cry i love them so much
@8:02 I'd react the same way!! (Just Kidding)
No wonder "Thing" made an... open and shut case!! Hahahahaha! 🤣
“He’s a man, she’s a woman, perfect match”
Ooh that joke might not work today...
No it would not
its a simple joke itd still work
The joke is that he’s wrong, so it still works
The world's full of men and women. Still works
I wish my mom would have gotten the memo that this don't work today! She thinks it's still valid and is trying to set me up with any avaible man that she comes in contact with!
*deep sigh*
Love the way lurch scrunches the hat 😂
I love you guys for uploading the entire episodes. You angels!
I love the old ways. Much better than new stuff for sure
I’m the only one who thinks that Melancholia is pretty, especially dress like Morticia
101Brasileirinha yes
Me too, the problem is she was already around middle-aged atm.
@@FauZhee The horror. 🙄
I thought she was beautiful. :)
I have to disagree. I feel like morticias style just doesn’t look fitting on her. For example I feel like it makes her face shape look really weird while it perfectly flatters morticias
Many thanks to whoever is putting up theses full episodes they make the bright and cheerful days much more tolerable
Omg after the make over, Melancholia become so stunning! Morticia is amazing!
"Not the foreign legion you rock head."" lol Dude is about that life.
12.06. The way Morticia and Gomez yell "Bachelor!" 🤣
When you wanted to be Morticia and you turned out to be Melancholia!
Gomez: The name is Addams.
Hasty Marriage: Hangs up instantly.
Me: Dies laughing.
Thank you so much for putting these on. PLEASE continue. PLEASE!!! I Love this show. Along with The Munsters, Twilight Zone, Car 54, The Honeymooner, Thriller, The Veil, The Goldbergs, and all the Alfred Hitchcock Hour and Presents episodes I am set for life.
They probably could, we just need to show support with their ads. Sucks if they decide to go a "platform" like hulu paid, netflix, etc. UA-cam/compatible with most devices is much nicer, rather go with ads.
Really want other channels to follow too. AE has shows on here as well I notice.
Gomez and morticia relationship is so wonderful there love is strong for there kids and each other
Always a fan of The Addams Family since my childhood, i discovred my adopting family with Sonnenfeld's movies i used to watched 1000 times and discovered a US TV existed long time after. My "Goth" what a treasure i found !
All the Actors and Actresses on the Addams Family, did a phenomenal job
That "What's so funny?" by Gomez cracked me up
Started with one episode couple days ago, now can't stop. These old episodes are great ^_^
