When NBC approached Fred Gwynne to reprise his role as Herman Munster after fifteen years, he was initially uninterested. However, his second wife, Deb Gwynne, suggested that he accept the role and just ask the network for a large paycheck. Fred thought NBC would refuse, but they surprisingly agreed, and thus he accepted the role.
I'm surprised that they made it or it wouldn't look right without him and the rest of the cast but the original Marilyn and Eddie wasn't on there it was weird to not see them present

It's strange that by the end of the decade, a new "Munster" TV show would surface. This is a chance to see some of the original cast one last time. Not a bad TV film.
Fred Gwynne insisted that original make-up artists Karl Silvera and Abe Haberman, who were both still working in the business, be brought aboard to make sure the vintage Munsters look was retained.
love the decor to their home A decorators dream. That porthole large window. In spider web. Burglarproofing. Absolutly fantastic. Late husband would like it too if he knew
Woha, herman and grandpa are from same transilvanian castle. Then they burn it into ground. Old igor is trechorous. I guess they burnt it down. No sightseeing there.
i think one of the most underrated parts of this is the underuse of the soundtrack. it makes the movie feel more like an awkward uncomfortable comedy. no laughtrack or soundtrack to tell us what to think is funny.
This was going to be a new Munsters tv series in the 80's but was never picked up, The original Eddie would have been in his late 20's or early 30's when this was made

I always enjoyed watching the Munsters
I've always loved watching the Munsters ❤

I can't believe, I have not seen this , omg I grew up with the Munsters, different, witch, for humans ,wives, I am 61, love i❤ t. Well done
It was 1981, graduation from high school year and I know I barely was at home. Too much fun to be had, that's probably why we missed it.🎃
I've never seen this before. I'm 69 years old
It was supposed to be a pilot for a reboot of the series.

Fun to see how the show & characters changed over the year.

I WISH i could shatter glass with my singing!!! Goals 🙌🏻
Opening credits included! Wow!
This was going to be a new Munsters tv series in the 80's but it was never picked up
The new show had Lee Meriwether and John Schuck
It was picked up, had three seasons
@moxie96
This made for tv movie came out in 1980 that rubbish remake came out in the early 90's with different actors
@@LordCTHULHU2173 The Munsters Scarey Little Christmas was pretty good and I'm looking for that one just to see it again
Actress Yvonne De Carlo, was one beautiful woman, (Lily)
Halloween fun for sure
😅 I loved it also grew up with it but I'm curious in what year this was made
1981.
BUTCH PATRICK WAS THE BEST EDDIE!
YES! So true, he was just too grown up when this was filmed. I think if they'd made his eyebrows more bushy, it might have have passed😊
@@judic7723 I agree!
@@judic7723 Munster Go Home is their best film!
True and is great person too...
That's because he was in his late 20's early 30's when this movie was made, It was going to be a ongoing tv series
I enjoyed this, thanks
Happy Halloween 👻👻👻 The Monster Family 😍😍😍.
Mention of Aunt Elvira got me all excited. ☹️
@@lazchurchyard1229 She was a witch 🧹 not Elvira Mistress of the Dark 🌑
Spot on the show can cook hamburger for me. A walking stove and transportation to & from anywhere I have to go.
Gracias por el vídeo ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
I love this Very Nice, they should of taken the Baby Mummy with them Very Cute love the Munsters I’ll always watch anything with them Excellent Movie
The Munsters Revenge was on Friday Against The CBS Family movie The Wizard of Oz! The Wizard of Oz, beat the Munsters in the Ratings!
This was a fun film!

Not reading these comments i don't want to know what happens. 😅😅😅
It needs the laughtrack.
So you know when it's funny ??!! 😂😂
Cute
And 7 years after this we had the dire Munsters Today series thrust upon us. A major downgrade in just about every way.
i think one of the most underrated parts of this is the underuse of the soundtrack. it makes the movie feel more like an awkward uncomfortable comedy. no laughtrack or soundtrack to tell us what to think is funny.
Im watching a few minuteshate it, dont like this Eddie at all
Butch Patrick is the original Eddie
@JodiSmith-c6 Happy Derman was the original Eddie in the pilot
Omg. It’s Angela Rayner
The waitress scene was not something that was funny fir universal
😂
Not a fan of this, miss the OG Eddie! MUNSTER GO HOME IS BETTER!

@@LordCTHULHU2173 They had the OG cast in a cameo in one film!
@@Russell-hd1pm
I saw that movie
That was the better movie 🎥
@@Russell-hd1pmThat was the Christmas ☃️ movie Scarey Little Christmas
Poor man's Addams Family
Saying "poor man" is a micro aggression. Do better.
@mrtimo3822 Only a "micro" ? I will have to do better
Who thought this crap was funny ?
😂😂😂😂😂
I never did found Munsters funny. Its so weird. I think its an old fashioned comedy show, modeled from radio shows of the 30s. Idk.
It is a wonderful macabre satirical. Comedy
I actually prefer Morticia the actress who plays Morticia over Lily Yvonne DE Carlo
So you actually think the actress who played Morticia was also named Morticia in real life?
@madmex123 no I know her name was Carolyn but cannot come on the surname. Smith I think
@@yvonnelessick9880 Jones was her last name.
She was in The Adams Family not in The Munsters
Carolyn Jones
😮🧉🤔🤨👀😡🤬👀🤨🧉🤔🤗🧉😅😋😂😅😂 Jajajaja O siempre me gusto la parodia al terror de familia de los locos Adams
The Munster's TV show predated the Adams Family TV show ........ all be it by a week! 😁
