The Munters

Such a hideous looking daughter

It’s too patrician for most who frequent this site.

people get scared by Herman and run away in fast motion. The munsters think they are completely normal except for their 'ugly' daughter. The message of the show is don't conform for society , be yourself even if its a vampire.

>I don't get it.

Superior Adams family spin off.

Did Herman get cucked? Why aren't any of his kids part Frankenstein monster?

>Did Herman get cucked? Why aren't any of his kids part Frankenstein monster?

He only had one, and he was a werewolf. His wife was a vampire as was his fatrher in law. The human is a cousin.

It was a simpler time. People who made TV shows didn't need to think of details like this.

It was a satire of monster movies and family sitcoms of that era.

here's a hint

The real monsters is society

It's an allegory for Jewish families moving into suburbia in the early 1960s.

But she has a nice personality.

>The Munsters was a veiled allegory for the plight of Jews and other minorities in America. The Munsters looked different from the majority and had seemingly peculiar habits, traditions, customs, and so forth. Yet they proudly considered themselves an eminently normal, respectable, American bourgeois family. They did not regard their strange ways as in anyway incongruent with the American Way of Life. Indeed, they were essentially benevolent; they never hurt anyone and treated others with respect. Uncle Herman was a gentle, lovable individual. Even though, due to discrimination (against the freakish, i.e., minorities) he could never advance professionally in his menial job at the funeral parlor, he resolutely refused to become embittered or even to acknowledge the truth. He believed in the System and cooperated with it; even when he was arrested he offered no resistance, and it never even crossed his mind to use his enormous strength to threaten the police and forcibly get his way.

Rejected and scorned by ordinary people, who either hated them or feared them for no reason save superficial appearances, the Munsters coped by engaging in extensive denial, doggedly clinging to the belief that they were really no different than anyone else. The inexplicable anomaly of Marilyn caps it all off: she is not only "normal," but conforms to mainstream America's conception of WASP beauty and appropriate looks--she is sweet, pleasant, and blonde. If you examine the characters' behavior closely, you can see that they resolutely stand for what we today call "family values." They eat meals around the family table, express concern about their son's welfare and social adjustment, worry about fitting into the neighborhood, and so forth. Herman tells Eddie to be respectful. He is the typical all-American dad who sees himself as breadwinner and still happily takes orders from his wife. The fact that they cannot fit in despite their best efforts makes it all the more poignant

Nice

>He never had the talk about neck bolts and blood sucking.

The rise of genre fiction as the predominant force in television and film kind of renders it obsolete, honestly
I don't know if they even make straight sitcoms anymore, and you need them as a base to provide contrast to the wacky shenanigans happening in your show
