@@GattiJuanIgnacio Well a lot of middle-class or lower-middle-class kids are also taught to hate the rich. And are known to steal expensive-looking stationery. Bullies are both rich and poor. I have seen it. I think every parent should teach their kids to be kind, no matter how rich or poor they are. Your attitude and personality don't cost money. I have seen rich kids also being polite. But yes some rich kids are spoiled and not taught about their advantages and to be humble.
@@btsarmyforever3816 the Addams are (upper) middle class. Upper class is nobility (of which America has none) and working class is both parents working/manual labour type jobs. Lower middle class is low(ish) paying white collar work (like teaching etc).

been there my self. a few years back my little girl beat up a 15 year old boy and his mom came to the door furious .till my 11 year old little girl came down the stairs with her little pig tails and about half his size...i laughed and told her to teach her son how to fight..like i did my little girl.. a very PROUD moment for me..
As brilliant as later actresses were, Young Wednesday will always be my favorite. Her brand of cheerful doom and sweet violence pulls at the heartstrings.
I often see comments about how nice it is and such with Gomez and Morticia's love for one another, etc. Apparently they were actually pretty close in real life too. When Carolyn Jones found out she was dying, she even asked John Astin to give the eulogy at her funeral. He initially refused because he just didn't think he'd be able to do it.
[nods] even years later, he still got choked up when he was talking about their friendship in an interview. they really were like a family. it's sad that that sort of thing isn't more common these days with tv shows and such. now a days, all you hear is this actor sniping about that one or some other drama behind the scenes.

You should see The New Addams Family version of this episode☺ Wednesday:" I'm sorry I hit you in the eye Harold. (whispers) Next time I won't leave a mark where its visible." 😁
The fact that Carolyn loved this character so much she kept everything. Her dress, wig, her wicker chair… It was always kept in her room until the day she died. I wish her and John could have been together outside the show, but she died knowing how he really felt all long and he found that out too. I love that they got their backstage kisses when the 60’s era shows wouldnt allow people to kiss on the lips in television. Doesn't sense since they allowed John to kiss hey whole body… but a peck on the lips is out of the question. They were too sweet and their affection on camera was groundbreaking during this time period.
I also thought it was funny in another episode, in one scene he's basically pawing her all over and kissing her all over, but at the end we see they still have "his" and "hers" beds. Like they're madly in love and engage in PDA all the time but sleep in separate beds? Right...
Gomez's face, when he finds out Wednesday was the one who punched Harold is just too precious with the cup, is just fantastic, Gomez you are great actor
@rahkin rah - It really has aged well! And when you look at it the Addams's really have superb values. Many of us would do well to learn about caring, tolerance, diversity, commitment, family, etc..

John Astin burns his thumb on his cigar. Start at the line "Wouldn't that be interesting?" Try beginning at 1:40. He flinches at about 1:44 (also look for the scorch mark on his thumb if you freeze-frame at the right spot) and then he's looking at and rubbing his fingers of his left hand and makes it look like he's still thinking about a hand full of thumbs,. Which may be but, he's also rubbing his burnt thumb. Astin was a great and underrated character actor.
Tbh, the Addams family should be used as an example of how you can achieve good confidence, a loving relationship, and loving family. They’re secret(to us at least, there’s no secret to them), is that they are who they are and don’t even notice what others expect of them, nor do they try imposing their views or lifestyle onto others(they think they’re neighbors are odd but aren’t going to try and change them cause they are a very excepting bunch of people). I mean for crying out loud, they are one of the weirdest fictional families out there and yet they’re the best one because they are the embodiment of living blissfully unaware of what people think or expect them to be, and even if they were aware they probably wouldn’t wanna change anyways because why should they? Why should anyone have to conform to others expectations of what they should be? I love this damm family so much I wish they were real and that I was apart of it!

@Funfetti - Yeah compare it with the Fox Comedy "Married with Children". Even though Married... had more acceptable behaviors in general, none the less they had horrible family values and values in general. Always snipping at each other and putting each other down. No work ethic, Peg and Al couldn't stand each other, family totally dysfunctional, etc. I know which family I'd prefer to be in...
Gomez and Morticia are one of the best parents on tv. Trying to settle a fight with their children and another boy, being modest about their net worth. 👍🏻 💯
The Addams a family living in an old Mansion adjacent to a Cemetery and Swamp in New Jersey are one of the wealthiest families in the world during this series.
Do you know that he is included in many of the Simpsons episodes? Not sure who does the voice of the character...but there is no mistaking FRANK NELSON! Only those of us who saw him on 50's, 60's and 70 television shows would recognize him tho!
I love the Addams family. And I love the character of Gomez Addams … The way that he adores and worships his wife is so beautiful and wonderful. A lesson for many men to learn 🙏🏻
_Gomez had ancestors in the amazonian Forest Jungle. So, probably he wasn’t directly from Spain, he was descendant of South Americans!! (Colombia, Ecuador, Brasil, and Peru) the five amazonian countries. He could have had Colombian ancestors!_ 😭😭😭🇨🇴
That explains his wealth and love of swamps!!! He started out life as a head hunter Collecting shrunken heads from rival clans and selling them to tourists!
Well it is possible that Gomez's ancestors were conquistadors, Addams is neither a Spanish nor a South American name. Sounds English to me. Did he adopt that persona because he was a great lover, or did he become a great lover because he adopted that persona?
@@mom5catskyle596 Morticia refers to him as "Castilian" (or something similar) enough times to make me think he was really Spanish, although it's unclear exactly where his people were from. I'm guessing South America, though.
@@jazzmanchgo Addams could be a Scottish name. There were many mercenaries, adventurers and pirates in South America, not all from Spain and Portugal. The Addams family fortune could have been established in the 17th or 18th century by an Englishman or Scot who struck it rich and married into a prominent Spanish family.
@@mrdanforth3744 Certainly, because in Spanish-speaking countries we have 2 surnames, the first from the paternal lineage and the second from the maternal lineage, Addams is their paternal last name, and I think his family simply do not use the second anymore because it is not customary as USA citizens I supose, also Gomez means Son of Gome in Spain and since the middle ages beomes a surname by the descendents of tha guy named Gome, a spanish lastname ended in Z means "son of", Gomez, son of Gome, Perez son of Pere, Rodriguez son of Ruy, etc. But the Addams had to come to America from Europe directly because in Spain they used to change or Spanishize foreign surnames, in my family the surname of my maternal grandfather Galaz is actually Gallagher from Ireland, they lived for centuries in Spain and served as knights and then some of them crossed the pond and setled here, for instance the surname Obregón in fact is O'Brien, and so on. And lastly, Morticia refering Gomez as "castillian" could mean his family comes from Castile in Spain, and/ or used to own castles in Spain, so he come from old money. Greetings from Sonora, Mexico.
I love this version of uncle fester, I grew up with the 90s movie and New Addams Family but this is by far the funniest and lovable version of that character.
the backstory for this version is better than that of the 90s version imo because here hes morticias uncle who moves in to watch over his niece after she marries gomez.
@@eijiniizuma6184 I like how in one episode he tells Gomez that he's his favorite nephew. I always like how Gomez always called him things like "Fester, old boy" and things like that.
Mr. Pomeroy is played by the great Frank Nelson from the Jack Benny show, where he would utter his trademark phrase "EEE-Yeeesss, can I help you?" He also showed up in everything from I Love Lucy to Bugs Bunny cartoons. He was even spoofed on The Simpsons.
My favorite line he ever uttered was in the Lucy episode "The Great Train Robbery" after the emergency brake has been employed and chaos ensues. He approaches Lucy Ricardo moments later and says "Did you stop this train?" There was just something about his delivery of that line. Lucille Ball must have really liked his work. He appears on a handful of "I Love Lucy" episodes in different roles.
Jennifer Hunter shut up please stop looking for attention like this, with pity, U HAVE TO BE BETTER and be KIND to others, THATS how youll be happy, be the change u want and ill wish u nothing but the best

It's like we got separated at birth!
Fester and Morticia's mother are so different you'd assume they were separated at birth.
No matter if it's a tv show, cartoon, or movie, I always loved when Gomez would fence!
One of the best episodes in a classic series. The dialogue was so clever.
So glad John Astin is still with us. He turned 91 March 30th, 2021
"lets be modest about our advantages" wish more people lived that way
"I'm sure you're mistaken, Mr. Pomeroy. Our birds would never attack LIVING things."
Best. Burn. Ever.

Honestly their family is more functional than others I've seen. And I love it.
@Funfetti - Yeah compare it with the Fox Comedy "Married with Children". Even though Married... had more acceptable behaviors in general, none the less they had horrible family values and values in general. Always snipping at each other and putting each other down. No work ethic, Peg and Al couldn't stand each other, family totally dysfunctional, etc. I know which family I'd prefer to be in...
Gomez and Morticia are one of the best parents on tv. Trying to settle a fight with their children and another boy, being modest about their net worth. 👍🏻 💯
The Addams a family living in an old Mansion adjacent to a Cemetery and Swamp in New Jersey are one of the wealthiest families in the world during this series.
"The rest is taxidermy!"
57 years later and I still love the Addams Family
Mr. Pomeroy (Frank Nelson) did tons of voice work on many shows including the Flintstones and Mr. Magoo
I think I recognize him from I love Lucy too as Ricky's agent. If not another character
@RockManLP oh I remember him as well! I just heard an episode with that "yeeesss" and i laughed so hard! I forgot what it was called though
I knew that voice is familiar. Thank you for identifying him. He did old radio comedy.
He way Mr Ramsey in season 6 of I love Lucy
Do you know that he is included in many of the Simpsons episodes?
Not sure who does the voice of the character...but there is no mistaking FRANK NELSON! Only those of us who saw him on 50's, 60's and 70 television shows would recognize him tho!
"she must have hit him while his back was turn'd"
"in the eye?" Hahah
can we take a moment to realize just how gorgeous Morticia is like omg
Seriously!!! She’s the Goth Queen!! 🖤💜❤️🔥
Always so poised and graceful!
There has been no better pairing in sitcom history than Gomez and Morticia. It's so sad that The Addams Family wasn't allowed to run longer.
It would have been amazing if they had.
a 3rd season wouldve been the perfect length for the show "100 episodes"
I love the Addams family. And I love the character of Gomez Addams … The way that he adores and worships his wife is so beautiful and wonderful. A lesson for many men to learn 🙏🏻
I freaking love Uncle Fester's way of handling things! He was the funniest!
He makes the same joke like 4 times in a row and it's still funny.
"I'll shoot 'em in the back!"
@@cindydott452In the Back! 🤣
I love this channel because I can watch the Addams family series in Thailand now
Morticia is so elegant and graceful. She was one of my role models, growing up 😁
My brother would always get mad because I would take his guitar, pluck a single string, and sing the "Haa-Roo" song like Morticia!
8:30 way to go Wednesday u show that little punk!!
I'm loving these full episodes. Thank you MGM
_Gomez had ancestors in the amazonian Forest Jungle. So, probably he wasn’t directly from Spain, he was descendant of South Americans!! (Colombia, Ecuador, Brasil, and Peru) the five amazonian countries. He could have had Colombian ancestors!_ 😭😭😭🇨🇴
That explains his wealth and love of swamps!!! He started out life as a head hunter Collecting shrunken heads from rival clans and selling them to tourists!
Well it is possible that Gomez's ancestors were conquistadors, Addams is neither a Spanish nor a South American name. Sounds English to me. Did he adopt that persona because he was a great lover, or did he become a great lover because he adopted that persona?
@@mom5catskyle596 Morticia refers to him as "Castilian" (or something similar) enough times to make me think he was really Spanish, although it's unclear exactly where his people were from. I'm guessing South America, though.
@@jazzmanchgo Addams could be a Scottish name. There were many mercenaries, adventurers and pirates in South America, not all from Spain and Portugal. The Addams family fortune could have been established in the 17th or 18th century by an Englishman or Scot who struck it rich and married into a prominent Spanish family.
@@mrdanforth3744 Certainly, because in Spanish-speaking countries we have 2 surnames, the first from the paternal lineage and the second from the maternal lineage, Addams is their paternal last name, and I think his family simply do not use the second anymore because it is not customary as USA citizens I supose, also Gomez means Son of Gome in Spain and since the middle ages beomes a surname by the descendents of tha guy named Gome, a spanish lastname ended in Z means "son of", Gomez, son of Gome, Perez son of Pere, Rodriguez son of Ruy, etc. But the Addams had to come to America from Europe directly because in Spain they used to change or Spanishize foreign surnames, in my family the surname of my maternal grandfather Galaz is actually Gallagher from Ireland, they lived for centuries in Spain and served as knights and then some of them crossed the pond and setled here, for instance the surname Obregón in fact is O'Brien, and so on. And lastly, Morticia refering Gomez as "castillian" could mean his family comes from Castile in Spain, and/ or used to own castles in Spain, so he come from old money. Greetings from Sonora, Mexico.
" Here Kitty, Here Kitty.," Lion Comes Down The Stairs!😁. Hilarious! God Bless. 🦁
Such an awesome old lion....:) You won't see his like these days. :( Gosh, thanks, PeTA!! :(
@@RICDirector 2019 movie: am I a joke to you?
Morticia’s shocked face followed by Gomez saying “All those karate lessons, wasted” was comedy gold
Best line, with the ABSOLUTE best delivery:
"...don't worry, when Fang makes that noise, nobody rides him. "
I’d love to have to have The Addams Family as neighbors, they maybe different but they are definitely caring and loving people
I love it when they use the gong for lurch...he's there instantly lol...
I love this version of uncle fester, I grew up with the 90s movie and New Addams Family but this is by far the funniest and lovable version of that character.
the backstory for this version is better than that of the 90s version imo because here hes morticias uncle who moves in to watch over his niece after she marries gomez.
@@eijiniizuma6184 I like how in one episode he tells Gomez that he's his favorite nephew. I always like how Gomez always called him things like "Fester, old boy" and things like that.
@@cindydott452 Gomez refers to fester as an inlaw once during the series run and its in season 2 ep 8 "Morticia the writer"
“She must’ve hit him while his back was turned.”
“In the _eye?”_
I love Gomez’s reaction there. Even he’s calling BS on that. 😂
"Perhaps you've heard of me? I'm in oil."
"Oh, boiling?"
Best comeback ever.
I wish you would Air Morticia's Romance part 1... this is the best insight into their love affair.... & how they were made for each other...
i had heard about that one but have never seen it. always wanted to.
Ucan watch on an app called daily motion
This is the Addams Family that my Dad grew up with. As a result, it’s the one I grew up with.
It’s somehow timeless.
Carolyn Jones is such a timeless beauty, I crushed on her 45yrs ago, and now I truly see why.
Mr. Pomeroy is played by the great Frank Nelson from the Jack Benny show,
where he would utter his trademark phrase "EEE-Yeeesss, can I help you?"
He also showed up in everything from I Love Lucy to Bugs Bunny cartoons.
He was even spoofed on The Simpsons.
My favorite line he ever uttered was in the Lucy episode "The Great Train Robbery" after the emergency brake has been employed and chaos ensues. He approaches Lucy Ricardo moments later and says "Did you stop this train?" There was just something about his delivery of that line.
Lucille Ball must have really liked his work. He appears on a handful of "I Love Lucy" episodes in different roles.
I love how Wednesday was the one who gave him a black eye.😂 fits!
Of all the lead female characters in TV history , Carolyn Jones as Morticia has to the the most beautiful and elegant
unparalled
Mother is still the best tarantula wrapper🤣😂. Legendary series.
I'm mad they didn't credit Thing for helping tho xD
@@Ariel_is_a_dreamer He certainly had a hand in it👏🏻😂
I love the look on Gomez's face when Mortica says she's glad they don't burn witches anymore.
The most beautiful and close knit family in the history of the world... what every father strives for..
*OMG, Wednesday is so cute!*
The way everyone reacts to Thing handing them stuff always kills me😂
John Astin, at 91 years old, is still Theater Director and professor of Theater Arts at his alma mater, The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore.
Impressive that the tarantula cuts a perfect circle in the side of the box.
This series was so life-enhancing when you were a kid.
Just fantastic !
I never did like anyone in this world but Gomez and The Addams
Family is the one family i wouldnt mind recreating as a day to day life ❤❤❤
This is honestly really wholesome. The way Morticia and Gomez parent are really good and inspiring.
Best family on tv back then
I wish i was a Addams. My parents abused me. I wish Gomez & Morticia were my parents. To give me love & happiness i never had
Jennifer Hunter please be safe and I hope you find the love that you deserve someday.
I’m so sorry to hear that! I hope you’re safe now!
Jennifer your parents were sick but you're not. Love will find you one day
It just goes to show, good families come in all sizes and shapes. I hope you get the help you need to make a good family come from you!
Jennifer Hunter shut up please stop looking for attention like this, with pity, U HAVE TO BE BETTER and be KIND to others, THATS how youll be happy, be the change u want and ill wish u nothing but the best
This show absolutely cracks me up!
Over 50 years and yet still love the show how tv was back then
Ancient Greece fell hundreds of years ago and people still enjoy their stories
We could learn so much, if only we would....!
Out of all the TV families the Addams family is absolutely the best....
Those pomeranians are an insult.
I'm shocked that Morticia and Gomez would even allow the kids to play with those plastic dolls.
"YOU know Kitty he can't stand the taste of people" 😾
I love Morticia she’s so polite and elegant she a true lady! ❤❤ beautiful woman!
I truly love this series. As a kid, I imagined The Addamses were my distant relatives, who welcomed me into their home. Throughout the years, The Addams Family always brought a smile to my face during hard times, including nowadays. Thank you for sharing these for us to enjoy. Much Love! "YOU RANG?"
