I know there are two kinds of people Munsters and Addams Family people. I am not sure of this question was already here but oh well. which one do you like better

The Munsters.

Don't get me wrong, The Addams Family was a good show. However, The Munsters is ten times better. If for only one reason - Fred Gwynne as Herman Munster. He was funny without the "spooky" jokes. Herman was just a great character. The perfect man-child.

I didn't like the Addams Family at all,but I loved The Munsters.Herman was the man!

The Munsters...
Everything about it was spookier- the characters, the house, the pets (a dinosaur/dragon, of all things!). Even the Munsters cars were stranger-looking.

I'm a convert to The Munsters. I was 11 when both premiered in the Fall of '64. Back then I was huge fan of The Addams Family; I even collected the bubble gum cards! I liked it because the characters were so creepy and strange. But now The Munsters wins hands down! It's just a lot funnier and Fred Gwynne is hysterical. I think the chemistry between him and Al Lewis made them one of the best comic duos on TV.

Fred Gwnne & Al Lewis first developed their chemistry on "Car 54, Where are You?"


In answer to the question, I like "The Munsters" better.

The Addams Family ... all the way. Loved it as a kid, love it today. It needs to be released on DVD, now!

The Munsters, I've watched many many episodes, it's okay, just not as good. The Addams Family is higher class. So to me, I see the Addams Family as fine wine, while The Munsters is beer.

I liked them both but I'll give the edge to The Munsters.

I remember them being together in "Car 54" a couple of years before "The Munsters." But the real chemistry there was between Fred Gwynne and Joe E. Ross because they worked as a team, while Al Lewis was another policeman in the same precinct. By the way, I remember seeing Paul Reed, who played the captain in "Car 54," on an episode of "The Munsters." I loved "Car 54" and would like to see it again! Sorry for going off the topic.

I loved "Car 54, Where Are You?". In the Munsters' movie, Herman shouts "Phone Batman. Car 54, Where Are You?"

Addams Family

The Munsters no questions!!!!

I like them both but I like the Addams Family more.

I liked both but, I like the Munsters more.

I love both The Addams Family and The Munsters.:) :cool:

The Munsters is a better show it use to air on N@N back in 1995 or 1996 the good old days, but The Addams Family is more popular to other people they even made movies and cartoon series off the show.

I like both but I like the Munsters more. A much spookier show.

I may have left some out, especially with the Addams Family because I am much more familiar with the Munsters series.

But I think my comparison does show that, to me, the Munsters is much more spooky and eerie. The Munsters also got out of the house more!

I've always liked both, but I'm more of an Addams Family fan now. The Munsters appealed to me more when I was a kid, probably because it seemed a to have a little more physical humor. As an adult, I like The Addams Family - they weren't "monsters," they were just different.

Plus, I kind of think of Gomez Addams as the perfect man. He's a sharp dresser. He blows stuff up for fun. He's good with his kids. He has an exuberance for life. And his woman never wants for attention. What's not to want??? ;)

Didnt the Munsters come out first??
