@@mitchellpatterson1829 kinda, but moxxie is a wimpy loser. both gomez and morticia are equally strong, capable characters. it's better to be a gomez than a moxxie.
I had no idea Morticia was the first member of the Adams family created. I just always assumed they were created as a unit. At least the four main members.
No one could ever fit the role of Gomez than Raul Julia. He fit the role perfectly along with Anjelica Huston as Morticia, making a fantastic couple in both live action movies. He will forever be an icon for his performance.
Fun to learn more of the history behind a childhood favorite. Addams Family Values is a masterpiece with Joan Cusack as an excellent foil! Although unlicensed, Melissa Hunter's Adult Wednesday web series was a great addition to this franchise too.
Mr. Addams truly was awesome! Interested into the macabre and oddities- his creativity would be seen again with Guiermo Deltoro, Tim Burton and even Cassandra Peterson! Thank you for doing such a wonder evolution on such an iconic creation! Happy Halloween! 🎃 ❤
Love John Aston and. Raul Julia as Gomez! A hilariously enthused lover and embraces the horror like breathing the air! Their portrayals are hilarious as they are fearsome- and I don't blame their charged magnetism for Mortisha!
Besides the amusing stage show and the mediocre 2019 film, most of the "Addams Family" stuff I've seen came from the 1990s (excluding that "Reunion" movie). That and their guest appearances on Scooby-Doo. It's really fascinating learning about the creator's influences for the original illustrations, which in a way ties in well with the whole 'no different than you and me, despite our eccentricities' theme of the Addams family. Happy Halloween Dave!
I remember watching The Addams Family back in 1992 when I was a kid, it was funny and hilarious. I'm happy that it's still show on TH-cam and Watch Cartoon online so why haven't they released the show onto DVD yet just like the original Addams Family cartoon from the 60's. Because it deserved a comeback after 28 years and would made me happy to watch the whole Addams Family episodes from the 90s.
I think the funny thing about both The Munsters and The Addams Family is that both were some of the shortest lived of the 1960's high concept sitcoms, yet both have enjoyed a strong mainstream cult following through reruns that they still remain influential to this day. Though, while Munsters did have an obscure 1980's revival sitcom and a couple telefilms, most of their projects were unsold pilots and failed revivals. While Addams had 2 cartoon series, The Munsters only had a strange pilot that would have focused extensively on Eddie and 2 new kid companions while Grandpa and Herman were there for branding. Then of course, there was the 1313 Mockingbird Lane pilot, which was really good but felt like an in franchise name only adaption. No greater evidence exists that the original 90's movies were integral to the Addams popularity than the fact they had bigger staying power.
The Barry Sonnenfeld Addams Family films are absolute classics, I used to be scared of these films growing up (to be fair I was easily frightened by anything) but nowadays I freaking love them to pieces and I recently rewatched them on TH-cam when they had them Free To Watch months apart. I know many despise the recent reboot films but I enjoy them for what they are, it's not high art but dumb enjoyable fun, but the original movies will always be the best ones.

The 1990s Movies were great, and the new Netflix Show "Wednesday" was surprisingly fantastic. I was very sceptical when I discovered it, but it is extremely well made and the cast is just amazing. The main story arc might be a bit too transparent, but the whole presentation of the show is just so great that it hardly matters. And big kudos to Jenna Ortega for presenting an amazingly convincing Wednesday. She had to do a lot with minimal facial expression and delivered a flawless performance!
i've always been a fan of the addams family concept, is SO interesting! Actually, the 3d movies were really bad, not only for old fans but also for people that never saw anything about the addams family, is just bad. But this new netflix series looks SO AMAZING! And also, i think there's no other person that can do a better job than tim burton in this series. Literally, one of my favourite directors is making a series of addams family, how is that not gonna be good??
I like the 1992 Addams family because it was one of the first introduction of the Addams family franchise, and I remember Cartoon Network use to air it in the late 90s during October. Plus it has familiar voices in the series.
As a kid The Addams Family was one of my favorite shows. I went to school with Ken Weatherwax at Walter Reed Jr. High in North Hollywood in the late 60’, he was a polite, funny kid who died to young. RIP Ken.
By far the best Addams incarnation is the original series. It was so underrated in its humor and such wonderful cast members! John Aston was a genius as Gomez, by playing his part with such flair as an eccentric billionaire. Carolyn Jones played Morticia with such grace. I think the networks should have developed the series so it could have lived on in more seasons. Although I agree that the characters were not spot on to what Charles Addams had envisioned, I would argue that they were a good facsimile of what he wanted, and catered to the audience of the time. When the first movie came out, and the subsequent sequel, I felt that most of the casting was great, but lacked the wild humor that I came to enjoy from the series. The only cast member I did not favor, (although he is a brilliant actor) was Christopher Lloyd as Uncle Fester. The look was good, but I was so use to Jackie Coogan's voice that I would have enjoyed that more. The raspy low voice of Lloyd just didn't seem to fit. Any of the animations that were out there just didn't make sense to me. It seemed as if the Networks just wanted to ride off the original series, but try to make it "fit" the current decade, and that caused the animated shows to suffer. I think once you have good casting, good script writing, you are bound to have a good show. If ever the powers that be would like to do another series, they should at least look at the original series, and use that as a strong template for any live action show. Yes you can make it dark, but don't lose the light-heartedness of the characters. It is what made the Addams' the cult classic series it is today. Right Bubala?
The original sitcom will always be my favorite for many reasons. Yet, I love Raul Julia's and Angelica Houston ' s performances as I like the original performances in the sitcom.
This may be my favorite video of the Evolutions Dave. So many childhood memories of watching the original tv show and the 90s movies. Thank you for all the extra details.
In the mid-2000s, there was a cartoon I remember watching about 2 kids that I thought for an absolute fact were Pugsley and Wednesday Adams, they were a boy and girl with striped clothes getting into mischief. Years later, I found out it was actually called Edgar and Ellen and had nothing to do with the Adams family.
The 60s series is my favorite, the 91 movie and its sequel a close second and the amazing Wednesday series a close 3rd. Jenna Ortega knocked that one out of the park.
My favorite depiction is-and likely always will be-the 90’s movies. The first film was one of the first VHS tapes I watched when I figured out how to work the tape player and TV as a kid, and I spent many happy hours with it growing up. I still remember my mom taking me to see the Addams Family Values in theaters, and being the only people there that night. I’m pretty certain that my love for black humor, twisted comedy, and gothic stuff all trace back to the first Addams Family movie, and in particular both Morticia and Wednesday were role models for me as strong, independent, free-thinking women who cared deeply for their loved ones and fought to protect them when necessary. I wanted a Thing of my own, I practiced the Mamushka, and to this day I would love to own that cuckoo clock. Runner-up would be the 90’s cartoon series. I remember that it would be shown on Cartoon Network back-to-back with Beetlejuice, and I loved both of them. I must agree: the Addams Family Reunion is a bad movie. I remember watching it with my friend who owned the tape, thinking that we would see another reunion with all the colorful and kooky relatives who attended Uncle Fester’s farewell ball in the first movie, and I was mightily disappointed when it became obvious that they were instead taking the Camp Chippewa Addamses vs preppies situation and building the entire film around it. What a waste.
Fun facts and additional info: The All New Scooby-Doo Movies episode, Scooby-Doo meets The Addams Family: Wednesday is Missing and the 1973 & 1992 animated series, The Addams Family all of these mentioned are produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and currently owned and distributed by MGM Television (current holder of The Addams Family franchise) and Warner Bros. Entertainment. Coincidentally, MGM, the company behind The Addams Family franchise is also the original home for Hanna-Barbera, and the company who also created Tom and Jerry cartoons created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera (H-B founders) in 1940.
Vampira invented being goth in LA in 1950. She also had Orson Welles kid and gave him up for adoption. Can you imagine looking for your parents and finding out that you are the secret love child of Vampira and Orson Welles?
I love The 90s Films of The Addams Family and The Hanna-Barbara Series of The Addams Family was The Best and The Two Addams Family Movies were really good so this is a great Halloween Evolution so I hope there will be A Voice Evolution of The Addams Family and Happy Halloween Dave!💝🤟🎃👻🤣🖤🧡
I love the original TV series. The actors and their performances were much more attractive than the others. Cartoons don't really draw me any more, so I've never watched the animated series.
This might be one of my very favorite episodes of Cartoon Evolution. The Addams family is so deeply important to me, and I loved seeing how they'd changed over time, especially the parts that I wasn't aware of before this video. I've seen most of these, and while my favorite is still the 2 90s live action films, the one that influences me most is the cartoon that followed them. Not only was it my first exposure the the Addams Family, but it gave context to a lot of bits and pieces I'd seen in other media growing up, like The Gruesomes in The Flinstones.
Question for Dave: You said that Cousin Itt was created for the show but he seems to be in the picture at 4:32 of this video. Was he added to the comic strip after the show? I thought the New Yorker stopped running the comics after the series debuted. As for my favorite versions of the Addams Family, the live-action movies are absolute masterpieces and I'm a big fan of the musical as well.
Surprised that you did the Addams Family as well but it's fitting giving the month and the date. But personally I do like the 2nd Hanna Barbera series the original live action series and their Scooby appearances the best.
Thank you Dave for putting on a evolution of the Adam's Family I didn't know that you did one of these Evolutions I mean of course it is Halloween 🎃 but still Thank you so much ❤️
Additional fun fact: Maila Nurmi (Vampira) modeled her legendary attire after Morticia in a costume contest that would lead to Horror TV host viewers were familiar with.
So you released a Halloween themed show on Halloween. Cool. But I’m more excited cause this the first Cartoon Evolution I’ve watch that wasn’t made by Warner Brothers
Wow I'm surprised. I had a feeling that a Cartoon Evolution of the Addams Family was set to happen, but didn't expect it sooner considering you did Gossamer 11 days ago. In addition, this is the 2nd time you had 2 Cartoon Evolutions in a single month following your Animaniacs and Charlie Brown/Peanuts Cartoon Evolutions in November 2020 of last year. Finally, wouldn't this be an amalgamation of both a Pop Culture/Cartoon Evolution considering that while they did originated via Cartoon comics you did included the Live-Action stuff (the 1960's show, the 1990's movies)? Also Happy Halloween Dave.👻👻🎃🎃💀🐈⬛🦇🧟♂️
Personally, I don't think there's a "better" 90s Addams film. I think both of them just belong in one huge movie. I just can't watch one without watching the other.
SOmetime around when the second Addams family movie was released, I remember reading in a scrifi movie magazine that Charles Addams wanted to call his family for TV "the Flotsams" or"the Harrids" but was overruled becuase everyone knew them as the Addams family by then. I have not been able to varfy this anywhere on the internet Dos anyone now f it's true.
Might be because I am a 90's baby, but the 90's films will always be what I mean when I talk about the Addams Family! I would have loved to of seen Tim Burton's version, I wish I didn't know that he had been asked, imagine a blend of the 90's films and Beetlejuice
… Not just ANY SERIES of macabre Hanna-Barbera Cartoons, but that of detectives Super Snooper and Blabber Mouse (BOTH voiced by my friend Daws Butler. All fun and all BRILLIANT! When showing up on The Flintstones, as Fred is first introduced to Pugsley, Gomez tells Fred, “He’s the kind of kid you don’t take to when you first meet him… but once you get to know him, you can’t stand him!”. When The Munsters was cancelled, there were several photos taken of Fred Gwinne (Herman Munster) holding up a sign that read, “Watch BATMAN!”, the ABC show that was on opposite The Munsters. The “Herman” costume was so stressful on Fred Gwinne, between takes he’d take off his boots and dump a quart of perspiration out of each boot. He had to drink gallons of water and Pedialyte per day to keep from dying of dehydration! But on The Addams Family, you must admit, Carolyn Jones as Morticia, (one-time wife of TV producer Aaron Spelling) was absolutely GORGEOUS! That black dress was so tight, she had to be SEWN INTO IT! If she had to go to the bathroom, a small army of wardrobe women had to go with her, just to get her OUT of the dress, then to get her back into it!
My grandmother was an Addams. As a matter of fact, our annual family reunions were aptly name “the Addams Family Reunion.” And believe me, our family was just as strange as the original Addams Family. Plus, it also rained every year on the day of our reunion. True story.
I have a memory of an original Charles Addams cartoon of a shapeless mass of hair answering a telephone with the words "This is it speaking ." It wasn't identified as a cousin of thr family, bit nonetheless I think "It" was invented by Addams.
This is awesome work and very well thorough research! Can you possibly do more Hanna-Barbera evolution character videos? I'd like to see characters like Huckleberry Hound and/or Yogi Bear have an evolution video!
There's nothing that screams relationship goals like the relationship of Morticia and Gomez.

For my family, no Halloween will be ever complete without watching and re-watching the first two 90’s movies, the Addams Family and Values.

I would have loved to have 1313 Mockingbird Lane green lit. I would've watched the hell out of it.
I was in the Addams family musical in my senior year and it was the most fun musical I was in out of the 3 musicals I was in 🖤

The 1960's sitcom is why the Addams Family became so beloved and developed a huge fanbase.
In the original TV series, Grandmama was Gomez's mother. Granny Frump was played by Margaret Hamilton in three episodes. (Fester was her brother.)

So you released a Halloween themed show on Halloween. Cool. But I’m more excited cause this the first Cartoon Evolution I’ve watch that wasn’t made by Warner Brothers
Wow I'm surprised. I had a feeling that a Cartoon Evolution of the Addams Family was set to happen, but didn't expect it sooner considering you did Gossamer 11 days ago.
In addition, this is the 2nd time you had 2 Cartoon Evolutions in a single month following your Animaniacs and Charlie Brown/Peanuts Cartoon Evolutions in November 2020 of last year.
Finally, wouldn't this be an amalgamation of both a Pop Culture/Cartoon Evolution considering that while they did originated via Cartoon comics you did included the Live-Action stuff (the 1960's show, the 1990's movies)?
Also Happy Halloween Dave.👻👻🎃🎃💀🐈⬛🦇🧟♂️
Who would’ve thought the actors and studio named these iconic characters 😮, I never figured that would occur !
They’ve never interested me but the video looks good
Personally, I don't think there's a "better" 90s Addams film. I think both of them just belong in one huge movie. I just can't watch one without watching the other.
SOmetime around when the second Addams family movie was released, I remember reading in a scrifi movie magazine that Charles Addams wanted to call his family for TV "the Flotsams" or"the Harrids" but was overruled becuase everyone knew them as the Addams family by then. I have not been able to varfy this anywhere on the internet Dos anyone now f it's true.
Amazing l, this is BRILLIANT!!!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃
Happy Halloween Dave!
Addams family is a classic :)
Might be because I am a 90's baby, but the 90's films will always be what I mean when I talk about the Addams Family! I would have loved to of seen Tim Burton's version, I wish I didn't know that he had been asked, imagine a blend of the 90's films and Beetlejuice
… Not just ANY SERIES of macabre Hanna-Barbera Cartoons, but that of detectives Super Snooper and Blabber Mouse (BOTH voiced by my friend Daws Butler. All fun and all BRILLIANT! When showing up on The Flintstones, as Fred is first introduced to Pugsley, Gomez tells Fred, “He’s the kind of kid you don’t take to when you first meet him… but once you get to know him, you can’t stand him!”. When The Munsters was cancelled, there were several photos taken of Fred Gwinne (Herman Munster) holding up a sign that read, “Watch BATMAN!”, the ABC show that was on opposite The Munsters. The “Herman” costume was so stressful on Fred Gwinne, between takes he’d take off his boots and dump a quart of perspiration out of each boot. He had to drink gallons of water and Pedialyte per day to keep from dying of dehydration! But on The Addams Family, you must admit, Carolyn Jones as Morticia, (one-time wife of TV producer Aaron Spelling) was absolutely GORGEOUS! That black dress was so tight, she had to be SEWN INTO IT! If she had to go to the bathroom, a small army of wardrobe women had to go with her, just to get her OUT of the dress, then to get her back into it!
I like all the versions of The Addams family.
You should do the voice evolution of The Adams Family next time 🧛🧟🧛♂️🧟♂️🧛♀️🧟♀️🧙♂️🧙💀🤡👻
What a great choice for Halloween, Dave!
Addams Family Reunion is now available on DVD.
Unfortunately, that is untrue.
My grandmother was an Addams. As a matter of fact, our annual family reunions were aptly name “the Addams Family Reunion.” And believe me, our family was just as strange as the original Addams Family. Plus, it also rained every year on the day of our reunion. True story.
I have a memory of an original Charles Addams cartoon of a shapeless mass of hair answering a telephone with the words "This is it speaking ." It wasn't identified as a cousin of thr family, bit nonetheless I think "It" was invented by Addams.
This is awesome work and very well thorough research!
Can you possibly do more Hanna-Barbera evolution character videos? I'd like to see characters like Huckleberry Hound and/or Yogi Bear have an evolution video!
Thanks for this
Something different 💯
The New Addams family is full of amazing Canadians too
