Couldn't agree more about Tim and Harvey - classics, they were.
The Munsters worked because Marilyn and the rest of the family thought she was too plain looking and a bit of an embarrassment. I didn't care for the show and preferred the Adams Family. That was based on a comic strip. I couldn't guess which way the show was going.
I looked up Chas Adams, the guy who made up the comics. I don't know if I manufactured this or it's an urban legend but i heard the guy who wrote the Adam's Family lived in a psychiatric institution. That seemed to be real to me.

here are the facts
The Father of the Addams Family : NPR
