The official podcast site for Old School Lane where we talk about movies, TV shows, video games, and everything else in between. In addition, we interview special guests from actors, actresses, authors, show creators, online content creators, and more.
It's that time of year where we look back on everything spooky on Old Spook Lane Creepy Chats. Arun and Patricia are looking back on two reboots on two classic 1960's sitcoms: The Munsters and The Addams Family and find out which iteration captured the spirit of their original counterparts. The first one they look back on is the 1988 syndicated sitcom The Munsters Today, a sequel/reboot of the 1964 sitcom The Munsters.
Taking place in 1966, Grandpa Munster invents sleep chambers that'll grant people hours of sleep in a matter of minutes. However, an earthquake hits the switch to "Forever". 22 years later in 1988, they are awakened by two contractors who wish to demolish the house believing the house was long abandoned. They have to raise $50,000 to pay the bills and taxes for the house otherwise they'll be left homeless. The show focuses on them living their everyday lives struggling with adapting to the radical 80s. Oh wait, they adapted quickly. Never mind.
When the show premiered, critics and fans called it a pale imitation of the original series despite it lasting longer than the original series. After it ended its run in 1991, it immediately faded into obscurity. What did Arun and Patricia think of the series?
