I can name ONE positive thing about that show - Gregory Sierra was a guest star in one episode.

The craziest part of all is that it lasted one season longer than The Munsters.

I wish there were a cable channel that was devoted to showing only awful short lived sitcoms like Small Wonder, Harry & The Hendersons, Uncle Buck, Baby Talk (ugh!)

I don't know how it could have been any worse, the cast, the writing, the direction. The creative people in front of camera and behind the scenes didn't seem to like or understand the original series at all.

I've seen some of The Munsters Today before- I don't think it's all that bad. And I LOVE Small Wonder and Harry & The Hendersons- both are great shows. I haven't really seen enough of Uncle Buck and Baby Talk (other than perhaps some clips somewhere) to talk on those- but I'd be interested in seeing them.

I have no interest in sitting through a critique that boils down to 'this is stupid and they're ugly!' as rendered by stupid and ugly critics.

I enjoyed seeing this as a kid. For "Worst Show of All Time" I myself would nominate Small Wonder, lol.

You take that back! But seriously Small Wonder was bad in a good way, the idea of a life like girl robot not being noticed by the outside world was just brimming with wacky sitcom plotlines.

The Munsters Today was just bad in an awful way, outdated jokes and the regular outside world just accepted the way they looked, and the Munster clan adapting to the awesome 1980's culture was just crap.

I liked Small Wonder and Harry and the Henderson's. I don't remember watching the New Munsters?

It's barely remembered not even hardcore Munster fans have anything nice to say about it which is a shame I mean it's still part of the Munster series I wish TVLand would air it in it's regular rotation of The Munsters at least to let others view it.

About the only recognizable face from the show would be Jason Marsden who played little Eddie Munster and who guest starred in practically every sitcom from the 90's.

Yup, which is why I give big props to Mama's Family for giving the show a nod. In one episode Iola is trying to think of something relating to something she saw on a TV show and she says one show, and then says "or was that the new Munsters"?
