I was a part of the first generation who grew up watching the Addams Family. This DVD set was just like seeing old friends again... from my childhood. Even though these shows are in Black & White, I don't care. That's the way they were orginally filmed. I feel sorry for the people who grew up watching the remakes or the movies. No one comes close to the original cast! They are fun and family oriented. While the new movies may be more like Charles Addam's cartoon drawings, they are not what my generation grew to love as the Addams Family. All the kids in my neighborhood would like to have beaten up whoever the jerks were that canceled this series. It was a shame they couldn't get the original cast back like Star Trek. (We wanted to beat the jerks up who canceled Star Trek too!) Anything with all of the orginal cast would have been a hit! By the way, all you new fans... Uncle Fester was NOT Gomez's Addams brother. He was Morticia's Uncle Fester. Uncle Fester came to help Morticia when Gomez and Morticia fell in love with each other, dispite the fact their mothers, Mama Addams, and Mrs. Frump had arranged Gomez's marrige to Morticia's sister, Ophillia. Whew! I wanted to say that ever since the first Addam's Family movie hit the screen. As you would know if you saw the orginal shows, when asked, "What's your last name?" Uncle Fester replied,"Gee, I don't know. No one has ever asked!" This were fun DVD's. I would recommend them. I have the entire Orginal Series, but none of the remakes or movies. After ya'll watch these... Go for the Beverly Hillbillies, or maybe the Munsters. I liked them too... and I will buy them as well! Sincerely Melodie A. MooreRead full review
What can you say about the original ADDAMS family but absolutely perfect!! The greatest bunch of weird character actors ever assembled. Great entertainment for the entire family. As weird as the Addam's are, the great family moral values are always prevalent. No matter what, they do the right thing in their own strange way. Gomez loves "Tish" more than life it's self. They never belittle each other. You just don't see that in today's sitcom's. I was very lucky to spend my childhood watching programs like this one. Highly recommended for children of all ages.... 3 thru 100 !!!
I loved this show as a kid and I still enjoy viewing it.

If you are a fan of Charles Addams and his wonderful creations, don't pass this by! Add this to Volume 1 and you have a complete Addams Family collection, both seasons and alot of marvelous and informative extras. Addams was the most unique, and possibly, the most popular of all the cartoonist's to appear in the New Yorker magazine. And this short-lived TV show was a tribute to his amazing and macabre humor. In short, if you don't have this-BUY IT! If you have never seen the Addams Family-BUY IT! You won't regret it!
