These aren’t your daddy’s “Munsters.” Some time ago we learned NBC was bringing the classic 1960s sitcom about a family of horror-movie monsters and turning it into a dark drama called “Mockingbird Lane.” But creative differences between the network and creator Bryan Fuller, NBC scrapped the series the $10 million pilot into a stand-alone Halloween special, airing October 26 at 8 PM. Hmmm,…for me The Munsters were creepy, that’s waht made The Munsters! These look like regular people (sorta)! So who’s playing Herman? It’s Jerry O’Connell (middle of stairs) as dad Herman; Portia de Rossi (next to Jerry,..aka Herman) as mom Lily; Eddie Izzard (top of stairs) as vampire Grandpa; Mason Cook (“Spy Kids in 4D”) as werewolf son Eddie; and British newcomer Charity Wakefield as “plain” cousin Marilyn. So what do you think? Some things should be left alone! Stick with the Classics! Connect with me on Face Book!
