ADDAMS FAMILY CAST 💚 THEN AND NOW 2021
Рет қаралды 1,743,465
Күн бұрынYou know exactly what it’s time for - they’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky… but under their pale skin, they were a loving family. With parents who adored each other, and extended family welcomed,The Addams Family aired from 1964 to 1966 and competed with show The Munsters. The show is memorable for amazing sets and costumes, not to mention the catchiest opening theme ever, complete with snaps, composed by Vic Mizzy who also created the great Green Acres theme. And although this supernatural show hasn’t gone away, with numerous spinoffs and specials, it was that original cast who superbly matched their characters.
I’m your host Nostalgic Nick, and today we’re reuniting with the Addams Family cast and seeing what they got into after the two incredible seasons of gothic fun.. If you enjoy this video, please be sure to give it a thumbs up, and subscribe to the channel for even more spooky fun. But for now, let’s revisit the Strange, Deranged, The Adams family.
Carolyn Jones - Morticia Addams
John Astin - Gomez
Jackie Coogan - Jackie Coogan
Ted Cassidy - Lurch
Marie Blake - Grandmama
Lisa Loring - Wednesday Addams
Ken Weatherwax - Pugsley Addams

I guess I liked Uncle Fester the most too, especially after I learned how far back in motion picture history Jackie Coogan had come. On a related note, another former child star from the silent era died only last year, "Baby Peggy." Her parents also spent the fortune she earned, and even cost her job when they demanded more money. I think her story is more tragic than that of Coogan's.

I remember helping my neighbor delivering newspapers for around 1 month so that I can buy a light bulb like uncle Fester had. That bulb cost me 4.00 and I had to beg my old man to drive me to the magic shop to buy it because it was too far away for me to ride my bicycle there. I remember calling up the magic shop and making sure they had it and if it's the same kind like uncle Fester had. Hay, what do you expect from a 8 year old kid. Lolololol.

One of the kids brought his train set, and a firecracker (and a shot of butane from the teacher's lighter) was used for the explosion. It was a lot of fun. The debris burned hot, then it melted a car from the kid's Lionel train. He wasn't vey happy.

I don't remember that, when did that happen? I do remember that a special was done (a Hallow'een Special, of course), and Grandmama was trying to brew up a potion to allow her to fly, but kept failing; she was about to give up, and told the other Addams in the family cemetery next to the house; but later came back out, apologized to the departed, said she was an Addams!, and would keep trying! (Applause from the cemetery). I might be wrong, but I think Imogene Coca may have also been a guest.

Fun Fact: Caroline Jones' Morticia walk was because they dressed her in an old-fashioned corset. Initially she was moving that way because the corset was uncomfortable, then she incorporated it into the character. Also, on the Mike Douglas Show she joked about not wearing underwear because the Addams Family set was so hot.
