The Addams Family Album with John Astin (1992) 

Gomez and Morticia, the most functional relationship ever.

This Addams Family was the most loving family ever on TV. The characters all loved each other, and the actors loved each other and had fun.

wonderful tv show to grow up with back then , i just loved addams family, munsters, bewitched, i dream of jeannie, star trek, twilight zone, outer limits, alfred hitchcock hour , , Aaaaaah the greatness just went on and on ! ! ! ! !

with his on screen daughter Lisa Loring is dead John Astin is now the last surviving cast member of the original Addams Family series.

Who wouldn't want Gomez as a husband. Attentive, loving, supportive and he thought his wife was the most beautiful woman in the world. Bonus he was a loving, hands on father. Every woman should be so lucky!

Got to hang with John a few times in the 80's and he couldn't have been a nicer human being.

I cannot identify another set of married television series characters in the 1960s that had more overt sexuality between them than the Addams couple. Carolyn Jones played it exquisitely. If Morticia had been frigid, it would have never worked. She had to exude an identifiable eroticism, but in a reserved and dignified manner. Carolyn Jones was perfect for the part.

I love how he speaks of other cast members, you can tell he cared and enjoyed working with them

Growing up in the 60's, I truly enjoyed watching The Addams Family. Even if I could only get it on a UHF channel and through horrible static, even with aluminum foil on the rabbit ear antenna, it was still worth watching! And just like with Rocky and Bullwinkle, this comedy writing team had vision and creativity that can still be appreciated 60 years later! 😁👍

I love you John Astin, you are for ever Gomez Addams for me ❤

bless his heart, I've loved him since I saw him on "That Touch of Mink" when I was a kid. Then, seeing him in the Addams Family made him that much better. (I'm 38 and was raised on old entertainment). 🖤

It’s interesting that John Astin’s Gomez had an incident on set that almost cost an eye, because Raul Julia’s Gomez in the movie had his eye actually pop out of it’s socket when he rubbed an itch during filming.

This post is SPECTACULAR!!!! Thank you SO much.

The Addams Family AND old commercials is like my version of peanut butter and chocolate! I love both immensely and even better together. Thanks for posting this wonderful video…and for keeping in the ads. 😊

I love this. I love the Addams Family, and memory lane for these commercials is super fun. I loved Carolyn Jones in the pod people and she was the Only Morticia. Great video.

John Austin the Goat of the Addams Family Series.

It would be awesome if John Astin wrote a book. Sure it would be a best seller!

🖤🖤🖤 this series was the best thing ever made

Wednesday's middle name was Friday. I distinctly remember Morticia telling someone that on the phone.

I grew up with The Addams Family series and I still love watching them 🖤

How great to see them all... I miss them so much 🤧🖤

In the episode where Wednesday runs away from home, the missing persons detective takes a missing persons report from Morticia over the phone. After learning the little girl's name is Wednesday, he scarcastically asks Morticia if the girl's middle name is Thursday, to which Morticia responds, "No, (it's) Friday". Here's the clip containing the scene: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4bOMOHX93Do.html

What a wonderful treat! I love the Addams Family TV series. Thanks for posting this rarity.

Granny Frump was named Hester, her brother was Fester. The movies messed that up making Fester Gomez' brother and Wednesday the older sibling.

Ted Cassidy was a trained organist, he had been employed in a department store to play the organ.

Love the Addams Family from the 60’s, along with Bewitched and The Munsters

This aired in 92’ about the same time I started to watch these original episodes of The Addams Family reruns on BBC2 happy memories,still watching them today

John is my dawg, I will forever love this show and this beautiful cast that was in it.

I enjoyed the commercials just as much as the program. Thanks.

John Astin is now 93 ; his birthday was in March. Wednesday from original -living and Cousin It from Addams Halloween -living. I love watching Addams.

I love the Addams family thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

After all these years I am still in love with Carolyn Jones's Morticia... she spoke French after all.

John Astin and Carolyn Jones - two of the most talented character actors in LA at the time… Check out “Burke’s Law” - Jones plays five different characters in one episode. It’s a fun early Arron Spelling detective show. I always enjoy these actors when they turn up in movies or tv shows. ❤️

Timeless classic. I have the box set and have watched it numerous times. The show is in my top 5 of all time. Movies not so much.

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH. IT BECAME MY FAVORITE TV SHOW BECAUSE OF THEIR CHEMISTRY.....WHAT A TREAT.....THANK YOU,

What a great show!

I thought Wednesday's middle name was Friday. it was in an episode when she ran away from home.

Thank you for posting this. Great to see John.

John Astin seems like a very nice person. I wish I might have someday encountered him in public like I once had "Lurch" I'll never, ever forget the time I met Ted Cassidy in a Sears department store candy line in Glendale, California(I lived "next door" in Eagle Rock). My good friend "John" who was just ahead of me in line whispered to me, "Hey Marty, look how tall that guy that just walked up in back of you is, he's a giant!" I thought I'd turn around and pretend to "just be looking for a wall clock to only see what time is was getting to be", and when I glanced up I saw "Lurch" without any makeup or costume! I recognized him right away, who wouldn't? Well, I wanted to say something to him, but I couldn't think of a single thing to say that didn't sound stupid, so I just threw a "fun knee" joke at him by saying, "Hey kid, you here to get free popcorn too!?". Mr. Cassidy's eyes grew a sparkle letting me know he thought what I said was funny, me calling him a kid and all, then he groaned out in true Lurch fashion, "PEEEEENUT.... MMMMMM & MMMMMMS!". Then we talked for a couple of minutes. I told him I was there to get new school clothes, he told me he was just browsing, but that he might pick up some new tools while he was there. That was on a Sunday afternoon. On Monday, I had the best bragging rights story to share before school, during breaks between classes, at lunch and after school let out too. I was 13 and in 7th grade going to a school that was Jr and Sr high, grades 7-12. Even the big kids wanted to hear what me and Lurch talked about, and where we had met. The show had ended by then, 1970. But they still showed reruns at the time.

John Astin’s Gomez is my role model

Any Addams family video is a must-see

The 60s show was abosulutely amazing. I used to watch reruns in the 80s and 90s always loved it. Ive since watched most of it on RU-vid several times. I thought I`ve seen them all but now I see scenes I don`t remember so I`ll search :) .

Wednesday Friday Addams- said in episode Wednesday Leaves Home. I just saw it yesterday 😂. Lol. Awesome show ❤

Best the best no deve faltar en un colesionista

She is and was beautiful

Grew up watching the Addams family, I watch it on youtube frequently !

The Addams family was a huge part of my childhood and to present day I love this plus I can't thank you enough for keeping the commercials in

Thank You So Much for Posting This Awesome Learned Some New Facts.

this was by the time he reprised his role as Gomez in ABC Saturday Morning cartoon version of The Addams Family based on the 1991 movie

This family album video is priceless, a copy should be preserved in the TV Academy as there’s information in this video found nowhere else. Thank you for uploading this treasure.

Absolutely brilliant.

Still can’t believe the fact that in the tv show, uncle fester was morticia’s uncle.

Wednesday’s full name was Wednesday Friday Addams. As per Wednesday leaves home.

To think only John Astin is the only remaining main character of the show.

John Astin and Raul Julia will always be Gomez Addams for me

thanks for posting

35:42 So that's what inspired Yoko Ono ....😱😖😂

haha i had no idea Robbie the Robot was on the show

My favorite TV show. Love the Munsters and Dick Van Dyke, but Addams family will always be my favorite. Only recent show that compares is The Big Bang Theory. The movies...watched the first two...once. Did not enjoy the movies.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH :'))

these commercials are taking me back to wasier times. lmao

I Loved this show . Tye charade yers , the acting. The whole Production. It was hilarious . I wrote a take off version of the Addams caning calle the Qeordo fa Inky and is Ted KD French that drove Gomez wild , my character spoke jungle talk.

While Raul Julia absolutely aced the role of Gomez, we should credit Astin for coming up with the characteristics that Julia acted. It was his idea to have Morticia and Gomez comically passionate about themselves.

I’m here for the nostalgic 90s commercials tbh.

1992, that's when Tim Burton's movie came out; John Astin said he never saw it for good reason as to not get dragged into things

35:40 Predated Yoko Ono.

This is pretty cool and very rare T.V Special on the Classic 60s Original T.V series Addams family narrated by Mr. Gomez Addams himself reflecting back on the hit show and it's Fond memories of the rest of the Addams es ..boy though since this was done for T.V as a special on the Addams Family back in early 1990s when the paramount 1991 Movie got released and due to the movie being a hit ..all of a sudden there was this big resurface of the old classic 1960s T.v show..but yea as I was saying what could've made this special even mote cool is to have reunited John Astin along with the 2 Addams children played by Lisa Loring who played little Wednesday and Pugsley his son played by Ken Weatherwax..those two were on a talk show together I seen back in the early 90s I think it's up on you tube but yea im sure if someone would have asked them to just make this t v special with John Astin and reunited dressed back into their old character clothing ..kinda like how they did for that 1977 TV reunion show halloween with the Addams Family . But of course they'd be much older version of pugsley and Wednesday talking along side John Astin as shown here.. and maybe also u could have thing make a special appearance from a black box on a table just to say hi..but of course they'd have to have got some body who'd be willing to use their hand as Thing cause I think the original thing from the series died who was also Lurch Mr. Ted Cassidy.

So great to see this. Outside of the fact that he was doing "Lend Me A Tenor" in Chicagoland at the time, how did this all come about?

Funny how marriage counselors used to tell their clients want to see a healthy marriage watch the Addams family..I always loved this show much cooler than the Munsters and I loved Morticia I even went as her for Halloween as a kid once..but I think fester and lurch were my other favorites besides wensday and pugsley 😂lol

Her name was not Wednesday Thursday Adams it was Wednesday Friday, I remember because when she goes to school or was it when she ran away and her mother is making a report or some thing she says what’s her name her name her full name and she says Wednesday Friday Adams not Wednesday Thursday.

Whoa.

I don't know about that I thought Wednesday's middle name was Friday after her Friday the 13th birthday. WPWR's research dept didn't do their research properly. Tsk tsk

😍😢

Narrated by Harry Shearer

Montel was a night show?

The trivia on Wednesday Addams middle name is not Thursday. It is Friday.

21:23 Epic 😎

Morticia sings like Yoko Ono.

Unfortunately Lisa Loring died earlier this year

Lurch says the digbys

Why haven’t the commercials been cut out?

It's Wednesday FRIDAY Addams I wonder how the narrator got that wrong

Libere a legenda por favor

🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊

In Wendsday leaves home Morticia tells the detective her name is Wendsday Friday Addams

Gomez and Morticia were an average couple. But they only had 2 kids. The average number of kids is 2 1/2. There must have been another 1/2 kid stashed away somewhere !

He reminds me of a British comedian called "Eric Sykes" .

Gomez still looks almost the same.

The last trivia answer is wrong. And that's all I'm gonna say.

John and Caroline would have dated because they both liked each other but Caroline refused to date actors, writers, or producers

how many adds dose it take to get to the end of the video.....the world may never know............

Wonderful...except all those old commercials should have been edited out of it...keeping the trivia spots, of course. I've been a fan of the Addamd Family since it first came on TV when I was a kid. I loved them, wanted to move in with them. And I discovered the cartoons of Charles Addams, and I've collected books of them. I guess there's no hope for me!

Rotten

haha somebody dump a bucket of ice water on Gomez lol..he can use it 😂..yuck Peter sellers why insult Gomez like that lol the other two sure but the third comparison really should be pepe le pew 😅

Gomez and Morticia were the best husband and wife team.....ever next to Herman and Lily

why is the Door Bell A NOOSE>

He couldve played Hitler here. lol
