I recommended casting Fred Gwynn as the new Herman Munster, but they ignored me. I have no sympathy.

Sounds like you could use a visit from Ultraman.

See, The Munsters was never anything but a cheap ripoff of The Addams Family, without any of Charles Addams’ wit and charm. The best thing they ever gave us was Paul Ryan.

But they can’t do a remake of the Addams Family, because they already made that. Running so low on 60s shit to cash in on. Studio executives may be forced to start making Reality TV: The Movie. Or, if all else fails, start producing original material.

I wish they’d gone with the classic Universal monsters look for the Herman, Grandpa and Lily. I hope they didn’t give them too much of a financial make over, since seeing the Munsters try to make sense of a blue collar world was part of its charm. I could see Herman at a protest over the closure of a hospital going “These people deserve good jobs, and I need the spare parts!”

Yes Eddie Izzard is in it, but so is Jerry O’Connell. Sliders was the last time he was worth watching, and that’s only because I didn’t realize he only had the one character that he could play.

MTV’s The State was given a Halloween Special on CBS once, and then promptly shown the door.
