New Munsters TV Series?

[Danny]

Not exactly what I would picture for Herman Munster, but O'Connell seems to be a pretty funny guy. He was funny in Piranha and that video making fun of Tom Cruises' insane Scientology rant had me in stitches. Trouble with herman though is the original actor had such an iconic cadence to his voice and mannerisms theres just nobody close to that acting today, i think at least. I just rewatched pet semetary and his whole "sam'tahmes... dead is beddah" stuff is chilling just because of the way he sells it.

The South Park version of him returned in this week's episode.

"You dahnt wanna gah dahn thaht rahhd..." The South Park version of him returned in this week's episode. Good to know! I only ever seem to catch SP off on and on nowadays, love that riff on the character, though. And Danny is right, the PS stuff he did was just...superb!

"Did you say youts?" 30 second preview for "Mockingbird Lane: Certainly not the Munsters I know and love, but it doesn't necessarily look all that bad. The joke at the end of the preview gave me a chuckle and felt a bit like the Munsters style of humor. For a one time Halloween movie it could be decent...

fellas....It's on the previous page that they're testing the waters with a tv movie.

To be honest that doesnt look too bad. looks like a silly monster themed comedy, not unlike the munsters. im just wondering how sliders dude will go, i aways thoguth izard was a good choice for grandpa munster, but i dig his acting anyway. ill check it out.

Being a huge Munsters fan I checked my expectations at the door and I have to say.....It was pretty good. Singer and those involved did a great job translating The Munsters for a new generation. I certainly wouldn't mind seeing a series with this Munster family. It could never replace the original cast but it's entertaining in it's own way.

Her introduction was ... very sexy. Izzard brought a gleeful chaos to the mix. This could make for an interesting series. Wayne Z

This could make for an interesting series. I agree. I just finished watching the pilot again with my daughter and it's actually improved my opinion of it all. It's really a great revamp of the original show. Looking at IMBD, the pilot has over a seven rating, so apparently i'm not alone with that opinion. Hopefully this is picked up for a full season or more. It's quite enjoyable and would be wonderful amongst a sea of crap "reality" shows.
