The Addams Family
Based on Charles Addams’ New Yorker cartoons, the original Addams Family macabre sitcom ran from 1964 to 1966 on ABC. It starred John Astin as father Gomez Addams, Carolyn Jones as mother Morticia Addams, Lisa Loring as daughter Wednesday Addams, Ken Weatherwax as brother Pugsley Addams, Tedd Cassidy as Lurch the butler, Blossom Rock as Grandma Addams, and Jackie Coogan as Uncle Fester, with appearances from other relatives including Cousin Itt played by Felix Silla and Roger Arroyo.
The Addams lived in a large house full of creepy artifacts, including a disembodied hand called Thing, and often confuse and frighten the friends they make in town despite always treating them kindly.
