I found another Uncle Fester's Restaurant .. this one is a BBQ joint and is a bit closer to home for most of us ...

I think that the one in Turkey is a bit more interesting.

I have to agree with Haunted Hearse, even though the Addam's Family was the more adult show, the Munsters were much more than a kiddie show. The Munsters were far more likeable and, in the long run, the more memorable of the two. There's really no reason to pit one show against the other, I think we have enough room in our hearts for both. There's nothing like them around now, that's for sure.

I believe that since inception, that the Addams Family was compared to the Munsters. It's kind of natural to compare them .. sort of like comparing I Dream of Jeannie to Bewitched. 

The Addams Family and the Munsters were very different shows about offbeat families with humor and the supernatural tossed into the mix.

Mord, that was a very nice sentiment about both shows.

Mord, well put.  It's easy to prefer one show, over the other, but there is no reason to put down the show you don't perfer, to make your point, especially since some of us are fans of both shows.
What ever happened to my Transylvania Twist?

If you are referring to my comments, I wasn't putting anything down, just telling it like I see it. Nobody is a bigger Munsters or Addams fan than I am. Ask Al Lewis.

Not yours in particular.  For some reason fans of only one of the shows, need to put the other one down, never occuring that maybe some folks are fans of a well made show, where a weird family, lives in a spooky old house.  You know, like "Please Don't eat the Daisys".
