It's creepy.....and kooky

Lisa Loring was drop dead gorgeous as Cricket on "As The World Turns" 30 years ago

old grouch · 10-01-2011, 09:03 AM

Yes, there is quite a resemblance.

Retro4Life · 10-01-2011, 11:17 AM

I see it, too. And yes, she (and Mrs. Jones) were/are drop dead gorgeous.

Marvo301 · 10-01-2011, 01:13 PM

Yes, there is quite a resemblance between these two beautiful ladies!

andress_jade · 10-01-2011, 01:47 PM

Wow, the resemblance is striking. I can see why they cast her to play Wednesday, she looks just like Carolyn Jones. Just like Erin Murphy looks just like Elizabeth Montgomery, her onscreen mom.
They are both beautiful women; Carolyn and Lisa. We lost Carolyn and Elizabeth way too soon.

It is indeed an uncanny resemblance. If they ever do another Addams Family revival (which is probably inevitable) - I say Lisa should play Morticia!!!!

great idea indeed, but sadly I think Lisa Loring is so typecast as Wednesday, she couldn't even play her TV Mom. If there ever was a redo of this show, the networks would probably look for the next "It" girl to play Morticia.

Probably right, unfortunately. I think most of the producers involved in these remakes and reboots or whatever aren't very interested in honoring the classic shows, just milking them for their brand names.

We can dream, though, can't we?

Absolutely, that is why I cringe at the thought that NBC is redoing The Munsters as a dramedy.

That thing is going will be buried so deep even the dogs won't be able to find it.

Well, with the recent failure of Charlie's Angels, maybe they'll scrap the idea.

Bryan Fuller, the writer for Pushing Daises and contributor to Heroes, is supposed to be involved in the new Munsters. I'm really shocked that such a supposedly good writer would bother with such an obviously silly concept, but hey, the paycheck must be great.

Frump · 10-03-2011, 08:32 PM

That is probably ONE reason they picked her for the part, b/c I thought she resembled Morticia back when she was a little girl on the show.
