I am a German woman of Nuremberg, Franconia. Herman is Frankenstein's monster. Frankenstein was a noble family of Franconia, east Germany. Lilly and her vampire father are from Romania. There were marriages between Romanians and Germans in the Middle Ages. It's not just comedy. I am stunned.
REALLY?! I had no idea! Thanks for letting us know! I'm a touch disappointed as I do prefer the Munsters...and LOVE their surf music as their theme! Did you know that Uncle Fester was The Kid from the classic Charlie Chaplin film?!!
both are great but I have always liked the Munsters better because they are more relatable. Blue collar, working class, family of immigrants who are feared and shunned by their neighbors for being different (yep the show had clever social commentary). The Addams Family were ridiculously rich, didn't have real jobs, and spend most of their time doing frivolous, if eccentric, things.
The Munsters movies suffered from old jokes and corny scripts, especially Munsters' Revenge. Munster go Home wasn't so bad compared to that trainwreck called Here come the Munsters.
Munsters... Crazy but funny... Addams family... Ambigous pranksters show..what a TV sitcom it is.... First time aired on Friday night that known for hopeless program till the end of its series...
With the death of Lisa Loring aka Wednesday Addams in January 2023 her former co-star John Astin aka Gomez Addams is now the very last surviving member of The Addams Family cast. RIP Carolyn Jones aka Morticia Addams, Jackie Coogan aka Uncle Fester, Ted Cassidy aka Lurch, Blossom Rock aka Grandma Addams, and Ken Weatherwax aka Pugsley Addams.
I like both shows but I think I prefer the Munsters. They look monstrous, but are actually decent people. The Addamses look more normal by comparison, but they are more monstrous by far.
I absolutely do enjoy both The Addams Family, & The Munsters in the original black & white, however I hate the colourisation of either one of them, come on leave them alone in the original black & white, because that is the way it was meant to be.
According to the featurette in the original DVD box set, the studio had to decide if the series would be live action or animated. However, every color episode would have costed $10,000 (in 1964 of course) so to further cut their budget, they went for B&W. The show only benefited from this as it made it feel more authentic and atmospheric being a spoof of the old Universal horror films from the 30's which were of course in black and white.
I like both shows, sadly I like more the Munsters show. I only watched first the movies of the Adams family later I found out it was a tv show. I watched the Munsters like everyday in the tv.
I love both shows could never pick one over the other ,both were hilarious,like some other comments have mentioned ,they should have done a crossover having the two families cross paths, imagine all the
Does everyone here understand and know that Uncle Fester was The Kid from the Charlie Chaplin classic film?!!! I am 45 and did not know this until the last few years!!! I admit I do prefer the Munsters though the Adams Family were great too.
Both themes are great. Vic Mizzy and Jack Marshall are talented. Why did you use the Season 1 opening of "The Munsters" while using the music from Season 2 opening?
M6 parents, to this day refuse to believe me, when I tell them the Addams Family was before the 90s remak e s, they do belive me they do about the munsters tho, also, the munsters got the first laugh in the 60s, but the Addams Family got the first laugh in the 90s the munsters remakes weren't very good
I dig how they're stylistically so different-- just the music and the whole vibe of each. Both great, funny shows.
I like both shows but Munsters are the bomb.
Ed Straub don”t say bomb Ed
I can't vote I like both of them. I vote both
I love Yvonne she was beautiful and the music for The Munsters
Unforgettable show that will not forget long with the movie in 1977 of all time. Thank you have all time.
The Happy laugh on Herman as he walks away gets me every time!
The Munsters Period. Grandpa was my most favorite.
The Addams Family and Munsters had their own unique humor . .
.my favorite will always be The Munsters of 1313 Mockingbird Ln
Both of them are my favorite and It's So Hard to Vote Munsters or Addams I can't choose So I Vote Both

The Addams Family Comics were made loooonngg before either of these shows were made... sooo... Addams Family ftw.
REALLY?! I had no idea! Thanks for letting us know! I'm a touch disappointed as I do prefer the Munsters...and LOVE their surf music as their theme! Did you know that Uncle Fester was The Kid from the classic Charlie Chaplin film?!!
Both are good and if the families did meet they would get along great
I like both the Munsters and the Addams family. I think that the Addams family is one of the few shows that did not change its theme song. ♡ T.E.N.
I actually like both shows, and I enjoy them.
I love them both! They're both from the golden age of TV in the 60's!
Yes, but that surf music for the Munsters was the best!
Both are amazing
I love the opening to The Munsters and the music
Addams.😊
Herman’s off the hook! Walks off after kissing Lily with that “YEAH,BABY!” look!
Love both ...but the munsters is awesome
No question!
both are great but I have always liked the Munsters better because they are more relatable. Blue collar, working class, family of immigrants who are feared and shunned by their neighbors for being different (yep the show had clever social commentary).

For The Munsters, colorized season one credits with the season 2 theme arrangement... pretty cool!
The Addams family is the best
That's spelled, "Munsters", actually.
Both were good, but the Addams Family is much more famous since they had two great movies relatively recently...... the Munsters... not so much.
The Addams Family movie from the 90s? The Munsters had movies in the 60s, and one in the 90s
A K they were cool but not exactly blockbusters...
The Munsters did have their movie !
Still played in theaters and t. v.
The Munsters movies suffered from old jokes and corny scripts, especially Munsters' Revenge. Munster go Home wasn't so bad compared to that trainwreck called Here come the Munsters.
I like both personally, but the colorization totally ruins the Munster's.
Herman the German and his bunch (they had a dragon, a vampire and a hot blonde after all).
Thank you for all your comments :0)
Pure Timeless..........
50 years later and yvonne de Carlo looks still hot
I totally agree :)
She has been dead for almost 13 years now.
The Munsters my favorite all time TV show
Adaams Family was the shit,I love this
True but the Munsters were better and best! 😁
hard to pick which was better when I enjoy both shows.
Munsters... Crazy but funny... Addams family... Ambigous pranksters show..what a TV sitcom it is.... First time aired on Friday night that known for hopeless program till the end of its series...
The Munsters: orchestral-like
The Addams Family: bass and snapsnap
I loved the monsters song's
I love that face after Herman kisses his Mrs. 😙
Lily?
WHY ON EARTH DIDN'T THEY MAKE A EPISODE OF BOTH OF THE FAMILIES TOGETHER!?!?!?!?!!! 😣☹😔😒💔
Because they were made by two different studios.
@@Superlad945 It must of stopped them back then. Can you name anything the merged from two different studios?
Frankenstine and bride of Frankenstein.
Was there ever a crossover episode with these two shows? It would have been perfect.
the munsters
Jack Marshall wrote the Munsters theme song and plays the guitar on it as well.
Both are winners in my song book.
Yvonne de Carlo was hotter than Carolyn Jones, but I like them both.

Finishing my comment ,imagine all the hilarity that would take place.
I like both shows but I think I prefer the Munsters. They look monstrous, but are actually decent people. The Addamses look more normal by comparison, but they are more monstrous by far.
Munsters win by just a little bit.
I absolutely do enjoy both The Addams Family, & The Munsters in the original black & white, however I hate the colourisation of either one of them, come on leave them alone in the original black & white, because that is the way it was meant to be.
I am a purist!
Do not tell anyone different, because being a purist is right!

Like both but the Munsters are better!
The Munsters...because they actually left their house.
I like both shows, sadly I like more the Munsters show. I only watched first the movies of the Adams family later I found out it was a tv show.
I watched the Munsters like everyday in the tv.
Man Hole,Cranes and Stair lift
One Nation _GOD
I'm guessing the Munsters theme inspired Uma Thurman by Fall Out Boy. Though I do like the FOB song, I just prefer Addams Family
not inspired, they use the sample
More like they used an excerpt of the show's theme song.
I love both shows could never pick one over the other ,both were hilarious,like some other comments have mentioned ,they should have done a crossover having the two families cross paths, imagine all the
Definitely the Munsters with the surf music as the theme song!
Does everyone here understand and know that Uncle Fester was The Kid from the Charlie Chaplin classic film?!!! I am 45 and did not know this until the last few years!!! I admit I do prefer the Munsters though the Adams Family were great too.
the munster rules
did anyone ever plan for these two shows to cross over with each other? or was that unable to happen?
They were like Nintendo and Sega in the 90's, it just couldn't happen.
Prefer the Munsters hands down!
the mustesrd yes my good
Season 2 Munsters theme with season 1 visual!
They used the season 1 theme with season 2 music for the munsters
0:22 your crush is coming... be normal LOL
Munsters, music wins hands down!
Munsters will always win in intro from Earth and above reason of the show
I guess that that would be PART of the theme music for, "The Munsters", is surf music. Perhaps all of it is not. I don't know.
The Munsters had a new opening and a different Marilyn in the second season.
Both themes are great. Vic Mizzy and Jack Marshall are talented. Why did you use the Season 1 opening of "The Munsters" while using the music from Season 2 opening?
Duggee and the squirrels is scared in ghost
I like the Munsters better because I think they are more memorable
M6 parents, to this day refuse to believe me, when I tell them the Addams Family was before the 90s remak e s, they do belive me they do about the munsters tho, also, the munsters got the first laugh in the 60s, but the Addams Family got the first laugh in the 90s the munsters remakes weren't very good
Can someone please explain to me why the season 2 intro music of the Musters in playing over the first season into footage lol
I Have a Question Munsters And Adams Family Both Same Universe ?
I love the Munsters. However, the version of the theme song is incorrect with the opening video shown.
Alek T. Michali depending on the season. In fact look up the different intros
You're wrongo Mary Lou!
Yep he mashed the original intro from season one with the surf theme from season 2. The original theme was more atmospheric.
Came here after WandaVision to compare.
What the freaking hell is Wandavision for the 50th tyme
John Aston was the WORST Riddler ever ! Batman Should be been ashamed !Long live Frank Gorshin.
It's impossible to choose one or the other
THE ADDAMS FAMILY
the munsters was better thand addams family
+Calvin Simmons Yep I do like the Munsters.
yes
I agree!! At least The Munsters left their house. Most of the Addams Family episodes take place in their living room.
I prefer the Addams Family
I prefer the Munsters
yea their costumes were better
+Calvin Simmons Yep, and Lilly was sexier than Morticia
HAHAHA! Morticia is better than Lilly, Morticia is more romantic.
I wonder if there was a Crossover
There should've been.
Enjoyed both, but "The Addams Family" struck me as more interesting.
fred gwynne
;)
Who ever posted this video put season 2 opening on season 1 opening for the munsters.
Their snaps are really off !
I like both intros, but I like Addams family better
Lily or morticia
Lily hands down 👍
Poor editing. It's "Addams."
