Checking the Sunday Paper Obits and noticed that Yvonne De Carlo passed away earlier this year, on January 8th.
I remember that back in 1964, she was cast as Lily Munster in the TV series The Munsters; the show had a three-year run in primetime but is still seen in syndication. I thought that she added a lot of class to that show and was very sexy looking....especially in black and white!
She reprised that role in the 1981 television movie The Munster's Revenge in color.
In the meantime I had seen her earlier movies on TV when she was a classic Hollywood Beauty in the Song of Scheherazade, Casbah, and The Gal Who Took the West. Her best known role at that time period was being Sephora, Moses' wife, in Cecil B. DeMille's epic The Ten Commandments. She had a classic beauty look in those pics... and was seen on a level with Sophia Loren, and Gina Lollabridgida in classic looks.
For those that like Yvonne DeCarlo as an actress, this DVD of her TV acting period on the Munsters is not to be missed! She definitely made this vamp role her own!

The thing I like about comedy shows like the Munsters, Dick Van Dyke, Andy Griffith, and the Honeymooners is that you know almost every line from every show, but yet you still watch as if seeing it for the first time. Fred and Al were so great in Car 54 and even better as Herman and Grandpa. The Munsters are/were harmless. They were there to do a couple of things, make you laugh and take you away from life's situations for 30 minutes. My grandson (he's 4) loves Herman and now yet another generation will know all the characters names soon enough and love them like we did when they first came to TV in 64'.
I grew up watching THE MUNSTERS and loved them then and still do now.It's great to have all the first season episodes in this 3 disk set,and the Munster family are more appealing to me than some of the t.v. families you see now a-days on the tube,at least the Munsters sat down as a family for dinner every night and had family values unlike most of the families that are portrayed on modern shows.LOL!If you like the Munsters this is a cool dvd set to have and it's fun to introduce them to this generation .
Great dvd set. The whole family loves watching this set, even though it's 40 plus years old! I decided to buy it after waiting for TV Land to air Munsters episodes every week or so. My seven year old wanted to watch Herman daily! A great buy for anyone who is into the Munsters.
A True tv-classic show, it was god to watch them again , got it at a great price, and will add it to my dvd collection regular tv stinks,So you got to have a Good Dvd Collection and the Munsters are a Great Start!
