About this Episode

Go get a witch's shawl on, a broomstick you can crawl on. We're gonna pay a call on The Addams Family. Helping kick off a run of film adaptations of Nick-At-Nite sitcoms, the 1991 version of Charles Addams' venerable creepy, kooky, mysterious, and spooky characters soared on pitch perfect performances and Halloween fun for all ages. We're joined by Amanda Rivas and Bill Bodkin (www.thepopbreak.com) to give a big (disembodied) hand to a movie that is gravely hilarious. Cara mia!
