Where To Watch The Addams Family — Season 1

The Addams Family Season 1 introduces one of television's most unusual families: Gomez and Morticia Addams, their children Wednesday and Pugsley, Uncle Fester, Grandmama, the towering butler Lurch, and the mysterious disembodied hand known as Thing. Rather than treating their strange interests and macabre lifestyle as something frightening, the Addamses see their eccentric world as perfectly normal. The comedy comes from the contrast between the family's bizarre customs and ordinary society. In the first episode, “The Addams Family Goes to School,” Wednesday and Pugsley are pushed toward conventional schooling, immediately establishing the show's central idea: the Addamses are unusual, but they are also a loving and tightly connected family.

More details about The Addams Family — Season 1 and where you can watch

The Addams Family originated from the cartoons of Charles Addams, and the television series was developed for television by David Levy using those characters.

The first season contains 34 episodes, beginning with The Addams Family Goes to School on September 18, 1964, and ending with The Winning of Morticia Addams on May 21, 1965.

One of the season’s particularly memorable ideas is how the Addams family interprets normal society completely differently. Things that ordinary characters consider disturbing or strange are frequently treated by the Addamses as enjoyable, beautiful or perfectly respectable.
