I assumed The Munsters was a low grade rip-off of The Addams Family, but imdb.com says they started in the same year -- in fact in the same month.

They also say the two shows went head to head against each other and Bewitched, but they were on at different times and not all on the same day, either.

Bewitched did start in the same year as the other two. It makes you kind of wonder what Hollywood was drinking or smoking or ingesting back in 1964.

That has killed a lot of remakes over the years.

Of course, it will have to add the lesbian/gay/tranny, the illegal(s), and an interracial couple. Diversity.

I vaguely recall the hour-long remake. It was, IIRC, AWFUL.

Another reboot? There are also rumors of a Frasier reboot. What's next? Mr. Ed? MASH? Gilligan's Island? The Beverly Hillbillies?

They "resurrected" the deceased Peter Cushing to star in Rogue One; I can see them doing this for all of these old shows when the tech becomes affordable but before the 'reboot' fad plays out.

Eddie will be homosexual. The daughter a trans. They’ll screw it up for sure.

Grampa Munster lived for another 40 years and ran for governor of New York on the Green Party ticket in 1998.

Al Lewis always told people he was born in 1910, but actually he was born in 1923. Maybe he lied to get the grandfather part and couldn't admit it later.

Oh goodie, more recycled ideas out of Hollywood. “Creative types” getting paid to...reboot old movies and TeeVee series. What a racket! Nice work if you can get it. I’ll bet they’re laughing all the way to the bank.

On rare occasions they are but the vast majority are bad.

I think John Kerry might be available. And Paul Ryan as Eddie

Actually neither the Munsters or Addams Family were that successful. They each only lasted 2 seasons.

This is also not the 1st reboot, There was the Munsters Today series in the 80’s

What will the new Munsters look like, The Cleavers?
