Well, he was fat.
Poor kid probably never got to do Wednesday either.
RIP Pugsley. |

Yet he outlived Davy Jones by 3 years and Davy was small so his heart didn't have to work that hard. |

Why would he want Wednesday with Morticia and her hot sister Ophelia around? |

If Pugsley had done Wednesday, that would've been incest. And you know they couldn't/wouldn't go there, even if they were the weird Addams Family.
RIP Ken Weatherwax. |

You just brought up a conundrum I've been wondering about for years: Do you remember when the Stones (the Donna Reed Show) adopted a little girl named Trish (Patty Peterson) who happened to be the real life sister of Paul Peterson (who played son Jeff)? Now, as adoptive brother/sister, they're not bound by incest laws, but as real-life brother/sister, they are. What if the script for the Donna Reed Show called for Donna to find Jeff and Trish having sex (and then, of course, hilarity ensues)? Would it be legal for these unrelated characters to have sex but, at the same time, illegal for these related siblings to have sex? Would TV cops have to arrest Jeff and Trish on the incest charges while doing the deed on the set, and then real-life cops arrest Paul and Patty afterwards? Are TV characters allowed to be witnesses to real-life crimes? This has been bugging me for years. |

Well, Thor, back then, on the Donna Reed Show, no one would have been having sex outside of marriage, let alone anything incestuous whether blood related or not. So, you can rest assured that nothing ever happened between those two.

True. If anything, Trish and Dr. Stone had the sex. Seeing as how her father abandoned her to the Stone family, Trish probably had some daddy issues she needed to work out. And I suspect Donna was a bit frigid, so... |

Then you'd better not start thinking of the orgy of incest possibilities lurking in the Brady Bunch....

As long as they all did Alice separately, everything should be legal and good. |

technically, all the girls were from the mother, and all the sons from the father, so the only incest would be if there were any lesbians/gays in the family.
Mind you, with every body a woman has, the rate of homosexuality increases, so... |

RIP Pugsley.
I was more a Munsters kid than the Addams Family, but I did watch both. |

Me too - I liked Fred Gwynne more than John Astin but we watched them both, too. RIP, Pugsley. |

I liked both. Despite the obvious similarities, the humor was different. The Addams Family humor was dark, while The Munsters' was more zany. Funny how a coupla shows that lasted only 2 seasons a half century ago, could be so etched into people's memories. I would've guessed these shows were around for maybe 4 years. I was surprised when I looked them up. |

Never watched The Munsters as a kid.
Never missed The Addams Family. Some other popular shows I never watched as a kid... Adam 12 Bonanza Car 54 Where Are You? Dobie Gillis Mr Ed My Favorite Martian Naked City Rawhide Route 66 For a comprehensive list of 60's TV shows... http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:1960s_American_television_series |

^ I watched about half of those. I forgot about My Favorite Martian. I watched that one all the time. I guess that went with the paranormal (or whatever it'd be called) mini-trend in sitcoms in the mid-60s, including Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie. Maybe even My Mother, the Car. |

I watched The Munsters ~and~ The Addams Family. I bet if they brought those shows back to life now, there'd be more 'realistic situations', say, oh...like an episode where Uncle Fester was left alone with Pugsley and Wednesday just a little too long. RIP Pugsley.

You guys already had Pugsly screwing Wednesday, 7 days to sunday so I didn't think anyone would mind.
I dated a woman, fell in love with her. When she spoke French I would do the whole "cadamia" thing, Kissing her arm and other stuff too.
I met her through a phone dating service, she lied about her age but was still very attractive.
