The Munsters
If there ever were a family that embodied the highest ideals of family values, the Munsters would qualify, despite the fact the father is a Frankenstein monster and the mother comes from a line of vampires and werewolves. A zany parody of family sitcoms, The Munsters is the story of the bizarre, but close-knit Munster clan. The family included Herman (a
Frankenstein-like creature), a funeral parlor employee; his wife, Lily (a female vampire); their 10-year-old son,
Edward Wolfgang (a werewolf); Lily's father, Grandpa (Count Dracula), a 378-year-old mad scientist; their "poor unfortunate" niece, the young and beautiful Marilyn, who was the black sheep of the family; and Spot, the family pet
(a fire-breathing dinosaur who lived under the stairs). Despite the fact they all resemble Universal Studios monsters, the Munsters are unaware they are any different from anyone else. Their residence, of course, was 1313 Mockingbird Lane.
