The Addams Family - TV Series
From 1964 But This Still Delivers Even If The Picture Is A Bit Iffy
As a kid, The Addams Family was a favourite of mine, not as obvious as The Munsters but delightfully subversive. As an adult I bought the DVD and was not impressed with the picture quality, but five minutes into the first episode that didn't matter. Astin, Jones & Co Perfection.

A Critique Of The Film π
π is the greatest Jewish horror/science fiction film about maths that you will probably ever see. It features Max who programs his computer to pick stock options and meets a friend who equates his calculations with the Torah. So after many traumas, Max finds peace sitting on a park bench.

Fetish or Masked Violence?
Abstract Asian fetishization in Western culture is a direct result of White sexual imperialism and the resultant media portrayals of Asian women as hypersexual and submissive beings. Hypersexual portrayals of Asian women persist in modern media depictions and pornography, causing these women both psychological and physical harm. Solutions to this issue should offer Asian women psychological support, empower Asian women to share their experiences, and press the education system to provide students with an all-encompassing retelling of imperialism and its consequences.

I loved the Addams Family!! Loved remembering the original as I just recently binge watched Wednesday on Netflix.
Yes we usually get used to the quality as we keep watching! Loved your review!
As a kid, I never differentiated between "The Addams Family" & "The Muensters". It wasn't until I was an adult (& married--she's the one who called my attention to it), that I could begin to compare the broad comedy of TM with the far more sophisticated & subversive comedy of TAF. And what young heterosexual boy in their right mind didn't have a crush on Carolyn Jones?
Great show! And great review!
Right, Agree! I love color pictures but this black and white family show gets you hook into their storyline for sure 🥰Excellent critique
Brilliant critique, well done and good luck in the challenge! Tiny typo in the first line, "as I kid" 😁
Always loved The Addams Family and in my life, I have been part of some so-called Addams Families in real life. I still watch on YouTube and always wanted to have a Kitty of my own just would take too much to feed it,
Love the Addams family. Cool you have it on DVD. Sometimes you tube has older stuff that has been updated in higher resolution, but who cares as long as you enjoyed it. I also use to like an animated version of it as a kid.. I think it was from the same animation company as The Flintstones.. 😃
A Great critique on a great show!
So true!! Love the original
