    Doubtful It Can Be Enjoyed If You're A Fan Of The Original Series

    Being a fan of the original 1960's series, I could not find it in my heart to praise The Munsters Today.

    I guess you can't recreate the magic no matter how hard you try. A good analogy is to think of an artist's painting. An artist can paint a beautiful picture but it's doubtful he could paint the same picture again just as good.

    The actors did try their best to do a good job and there were a couple of good episodes. Maybe it can be enjoyed if you're a youngster who has never viewed the original but for me, it just couldn't compare.
