The Addams Family, based on the cartoons of Charles Addams, took itself more seriously than the Munsters. It was more youth oriented too.
John Astin and Carolyn Jones were only 34 when they started this show. That was years younger than Mr. & Mrs. Munster. It shows on this series. The shows got better as they went along.
Surprisingly the Lurch, was younger too. This show has more imagination than the Munsters, but creates a totally different, cartoon type of feeling.
The cast did not have have quite the track record as the Munster's but their energy gave it a different feel. As a twin to the other by accident, this on has it's points, especially pointed out by the Thing.
