"The Munsters Today" Intro Season 1

My dad used to tape this show for me early on Sunday mornings on WWOR. the only good thing about the show was the updated theme song. I can't believe this show lasted longer than the original.

I hated this show with a passion. I grew up in the 1970s watching all sorts of syndicated reruns of classic tv shows (like the original Munsters), but by the 1980s, cable tv was growing by leaps and bounds and snatching up the broadcasting rights to all the good stuff I used to grow up watching on the local free broadcast channels. I wouldnt be able to afford cable until 1996. So before 1996, I had to put up with dreck like this. I much prefered the old original Munsters and still do.

I thought this was meant to be a comedy, it scared the crap out of me

This has to be one of the worst remakes in the history of television. That intro betrayed everything that was great about the original series. A total shambles from start to finish.

That bit on the sofa at the end makes by toes curl.

John Schuck sounds too much like Charles Nelson Reilly. This isn't to say he should've emulated Fred Gwynne (as future actors in the Munsters TV movies have) but the voice was still all wrong. I will say that the rest of the cast did a decent job portraying the characters, even if the writing was very sub par.

I NEARLY SHIT MYSELF WHEN HE SAID WERE THE MUNSTERS :'(

Brilliant show! Loved it then, and love it now!

I want my 51 seconds back.

If the opening is "the only good thing about the show", I'd hate to see the rest of the show!

[janamezi666]
