Herman Munster finished.

Making this did my childish heart good. Referring to 1 Corinthians 13, C. S. Lewis said, "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

 

 Do you recognize this old television character from my childhood yet? I don’t know if the show aired outside of the US or not so you outlanders may be at a disadvantage.

I watched Mr. Ed, but no. I don’t remember the neighbor. I’ll look it up.

Herman Munster, the father from The Munsters. You know, the big tall lanky green guy who looked like Frankenstein.

I usually have no clue when you guys post these, But it was indeed the EYES and nose that I remembered. While the original was before my “childhood” (1964-1966) so I was a baby/toddler then,  we did watch reruns of it after school as I recall. (Clearly showing I grew up with only a few tv channels and definitely no cable or streaming. ) I was surprised to learn that it only aired for two years as I would have sworn we saw a lot more episodes.

I was surprised to learn it only ran 2 seasons also. This clip showed up on my facebook feed and inspired me to cut it. One of the finer moments of the show.

No, even smarter. Herman Munster.

 I remember watching as a kid.  Looking back, they certainly had some great life lessons to be shared.

Looks good Charlie. Adding him to your collection on your shop walls? Nothing wrong in having a bit of childhood fun.

The Munsters along with The Adam's Family. I think the Adams Family was more popular here.
A great likeness of Herman

I think they ran the reruns back to back for after school “babysitting”. We watched them both - plus the original Batman and Robin show with the cartoon “Pow” and “wow” (I had a brother who always wanted to watch that.  I also remember liking to watch a show that I think was called “Dark Shadows”. It was sorta like a soap opera style show about a vampire(s) as I recall. 🫢 Barnabas was the vampire guy’s name.

Yes, he lives next to Danny and Sandy/Grease. There goes the neighborhood.
