The Munsters is an American television sitcom depicting the home life of a
family of benign monsters. It stars Fred Gwynne as Herman Munster and Yvonne De
Carlo as his wife, Lily Munster. The series was a satire of both traditional monster
movies and the wholesome family fare of the era, and was produced by the
creators of Leave It to Beaver. It ran
concurrently with the similarly themed The Addams Family.
The series originally aired on Thursday at 7:30pm on CBS from September 24, 1964, to May 12, 1966; 70 episodes were produced.
