The Addams Family Fun-House (1973)

In late 1972, ABC produced a pilot for a musical variety show titled The Addams Family Fun-House. The cast included Jack Riley and Liz Torres as Gomez and Morticia (the pair also co-wrote the special), Stubby Kaye as Uncle Fester, Pat McCormick as Lurch and Butch Patrick (who, ironically, had played Eddie Munster in The Munsters) as Pugsley. The pilot aired in 1973, but was not picked up for a series.[

This is almost as strange as the voice for the NBC early 70s cartoon version of The Addams Family, where Pugsley's voice was provided by none other than future Oscar-winning actress, Jodie Foster.
