The Addam's Family.

As I child, the Addam's family was my favorite TV show and the movies were watched on a weekly basis. Yes, I was sort of a weird kid. I own the movies today and still watch them regularly and never get tired of them. (There will never be a better Mortisha than Angelica Houston.) Recently, broadway released the Addam's family musical with Nathan Lane as Gomez and I can't even imagine how amazing that must be. This all being said, the Addam's Family has become a huge deal and has been shared with many through multiple mediums/media including TV, film and now theatre. Do you know how the Addam's family originated though? All this jabbering is due to my discovery of the origination. Cartoons. Charles Addam's was the originator of the Addam's family and it's creation is dated back to 1938. Can you believe that? The cartoons started running in the New Yorker in 1938 when famous American cartoonist, Charles Addam's, created the not so normal, gothic family. It amazes me that the looney family has lasted for so long, dating back almost 75 years into pre-WWII era. This is my dedication and my effort at educating all of you Addam's family lovers out there. Enjoy!
