They really are a screa-um....the original TV episodes!
America's creepiest, kookiest family is here! Come look in on their Victorian home - a gloomy little oasis in happy suburbia.
Meet Morticia, the languid lady of the house with her garden of delightfully dead flowers...her amorously demented husband Gomez...their moody children Pugsley and Wednesday...eccentric Grandmama....endearingly cranky Uncle Fester...and their towering 6'9 butler Lurch.
Quite the worldly folks - though what world they're from is geographically hard to define.
The Addams Family Tree
Pugsley and Wednesday are the death of a neighbor's party when Pugsley's gift of a tarantula upsets the birthday boy. The boy's snooty father orders that his sensitive son cannot play with the Addams children because they lack breeding. Deeply wounded by such prejudice, Morticia and Gomez hire a geneologist to trace the Addams' distinctive ancestry.
Gomez, the Politician
Election fever grips the Addams household as Gomez throws his support behind the candidate for city council whose campaign promise is to drain the town's unsightly and odoriferous bogs. Morticia questions Gomez' choice, protesting that the "lovely bogs" should be left alone. She labels the candidate an extremist, but Gomez assures his naive wife that all politicians do the opposite of their campaign promises!"
