Robert Morgan, Yvonne's real husband (as of 1965), makes a guest appearance in episode #42 Herman Munster, ShutterBug. He plays the officer who is standing up. (With the dark hair)

Irwin Charone, who played Lily's brother Lester in episode #15 Herman's Rival, comes back again as Mr. Howell (no, not the guy from Gilligan's Island), in episode #49 Herman's Driving Test. (Pictures below)

In episode #51 Underground Munster, Herman and Grandpa are bandaged up and bruised because of the explosion in the sewer. The very next day when Herman is going to vote, they are not wearing their bandages.

47 Munsters Nitpicks at Nitpickers.com... Have fun!

A.P. · 10-30-2005, 11:40 AM

Other trivial things and some nitpicks not mentioned on that site...

In "Herman Coach of the Year" when Herman throws the black shot-put, it is the baseball that goes over the trees a shot recycled from "Herman the Rookie", also the discus is the football going over the trees, another recycled shot.

Already pointed out the checks in "Happy 100th Anniversary"

anything being shot into Hermans mouth such as the muffin in "Will Success Spoil Herman Munster" the scene was filmed in reverse and then the filmed scene was shown backwards. You can see the wire pull the muffin out. Many wires are seen throughout the episodes.

Many occurrances of a stuntmen wearing the rubber Herman mask and even a Grandpa stunt double. In fact it looks like the dummy that was on the Universal Studios tour (the color shot) is one of those Herman stunt masks.

The ending of "Eddie's Brother" when Eddie and Sally are hanging upside down on a tree limb, Sally's shirt pulls loose from the tape that was meant to hold it tight.

An actor playing a different character..
in "Hermans Peace Offensive" after Eddie punches out "Jack", the child actor Jackie Minty becomes "Tommy", his friend in Zombo. Probably many of these.

also in "Zombo" when Eddie is on the porch with his friends, Butch lip-sync's all the other child actors lines....(sorry Butch for pointing this out)

In episode #48 A Man for Marilyn, you can see the wires holding up the roach.

In episode #59 The Fregosi Emerald, you can see the black wires attached to Lily's popovers. You can also see the wire attached to the Nathanson ruby, which flies into Herman's mouth.

The Drag-U-La is featured in just one episode of Season 1, but is in every closing credit of Season 2.

During the closing credits of Season 2, it only takes Grandpa 3 seconds to get out of his car, and up the sidewalk.

During the Season 2 opening credits, after Herman breaks the doors, the edges of the broken doors do not match the edges of when Lily, Grandpa, Marilyn, and Eddie come through the door. Plus, there is no debris when the rest come through the door. (Picture below)

All Season 1 titles are present during the transitional theme song. All Season 2 titles are not present during the transitional theme song.

There's also that white "T" on the door right behind Herman, on the left side of the opening.

(I haven't got the second season, yet. It's on it's way...)

Additionally, the hanging lamp, seen thru the door, is in a different place.

Munsters#1 · 10-30-2005, 09:24 PM

As far as we have been told, The Munsters have 3 neighbors. Mrs. Cribbins, Mrs. Cartwright, and Mr. Lennard. (Pictures below)

The Munsters had 2 family doctors. Dr. Dudley (played by two men), and Dr. Willoughby. (Pictures below)

Don't forget, we're talking about Universal here. Your second season set will make a great Thanksgiving present.

Sadly, I was thinking Christmas.

They said it would ship the day of release. I hope it gets here tomorrow! Tuesday morning I have to go out of town for a couple weeks.

My best,
Dirt

I sure hope you get it tomorrow. By the way, check your email address at Yahoo.com.

dirtprod · 10-31-2005, 10:43 AM

I hope so, too.

I'm sending them to you!

Nothing in the mail, Monday...

Herman's Lawsuit-

Watch as Grandpa reads the telegram. He says the words "In behalf" before he even puts his eyes on the actual telegram.

For quick access to that exact scene, please fast-forward to 14:38 on your DVD player.

Munsters#1 · 11-27-2005, 12:34 PM

A little after 5 minutes and 25 seconds into Prehistoric Munster, watch as the microphone crane's shadow hangs over Marilyn's bust of Herman.

A.P. · 12-01-2005, 11:42 PM

Only episode in which the entire family is seen in the dungeon- "Yes, Galen, There is a Herman"
