[Blaqjaqshellaq]

I read an article in a Mensa magazine arguing that while THE ADDAMS FAMILY was about America's fading upper class, THE MUNSTERS was about the immigrant experience.

I love the laugh track! Awesome!

[DavelovesRealMusic]

nEVER SAW trhis commercial ever!!!

[coventrygardens]

this might be about the 20th time i have looked at this video. it's still amusing. intros to the munsters tv show were unusual because it seems that they pointed the movie camera at one location while each castmember came into that location as if it were a continuous scene from an episode. other tv intros ( including the munsters today ) generally show a bunch of separate scenes at different locations.

Funny!

Yvonne DeCarlo in great new bio (Charlton Heston: An Incredible Life: Revised Edition) at amazon!

~What about Count Chocula and Boo Berry?

[Gabriellandon]

Frankeinstein!!!

[coventrygardens]

i wish the stores had some figurines or dolls of the munster family. i'm surprised that i haven't seen any. i see plenty of figurines and dolls of spider-man, batman, superman, star wars characters, and so forth, yet no munster family. if they do come out with the munster family, i'd likely prefer them in black- and- white.

There actually were some a while back at the Toys R' Us I worked at (about 7 or 8 years ago) AND they were in B&W also, but they were very poor likenesses and they soon found their way to the exit door.

Not very good figures :(

[coventrygardens]

to shawnster65----- thanks. soon after i wrote that previous message, i found out that the amazon website has munster action figures. i sent off for one of herman. it came a few days later. it's pretty good. i think i'll send off for the whole cast.

[Shawnster65]

No prob Coventrygardens. I myself don't minds action figures if they're done right..

I hate the ones that have the visible articulated joints with the metal screws showing in the elbows and legs. There's a right way to make an actiuon figure and a wrong way. Some of them are really cheap :(

[all66books]

Fred Gwynne was a genius.

[coventrygardens]

a few years back, the u.s. postal service issued stamps featuring the universal studios monsters ( including frankenstein's monster, dracula, wolfman, asf. ) i think they should do the same for the munsters, yet there's no reason to include the ugly one ( marylin ). by contrast, i don't think i'd want stamps featuring the addams family. the addams family simply didn't connect with me.

[moco635]

does anybody have the "nuthin' muffins" clip??

[DBNHellspawn]

Great commercial. I think I'll be having some Cheerios later tonight.

[prausch65]

..and I always thought Herman would plug Nutin' Muffins.

[moco635]

"NUTHIN' MUFFINS"..."The day after Henry Ford ate one of these nuthin'Muffins he designed the Edsel" Grandpa

[titusville7]

i don't know why they seldom bring back the old commercials. i think this commercial would be very successful today.

[Knugabug]

Who plays Herman in the feature?

[bignewgame]

Fred Gwen, I think that was his name.

[z4rt4n]

Oy!

[asianthor]

fuck-off with the Jewism shit, u tard n terd

[z4rt4n]

Oy....Mazel Tov, spin that dradle!

[happymundo]

It intresting how they just used clips from the show and didn't create an original commercial.

[kellyrons]

has anyone got any dvds of the munsters

[happymundo]

You can just buy them on Amazon or deepdiscountdvd.

[snootzie78]

Big G, Little O. GO with Cheerios!

Hilarious!

[JohnDOU812]

I love that classic commercial from the Munsters

[prausch65]

Are there any more promotional ads? Love to see them!

[fromthesidelines]

General Mills was one of the original sponsors of "THE MUNSTERS" on CBS- and occasionally, the cast delivered a "comedy commercial" for them at the end of those GM episodes (note the ever-present laugh track throughout the ad). This one for Cheerios is from early 1965.

[Dario927]

cool :)
