The Munsters: A Trip Down Mockingbird Lane ReviewI thoroughly enjoyed this lavishly illustrated book about everybody's favorite family of ghouls. Author Steve Cox was able to touch base with each of the cast members and many of the behind-the-scenes folks who worked on the show (and the movies), and he weaves the many perspectives into a cohesive and delightful look at the people who made the Munsters what it was (and still is). What becomes clear to me is that although there was some friction and conflict on the set (I leave the details to the devoted reader), these people were professionals who knew how to do their jobs and did them better than anyone else could. Subsequent re-incarnations of the family of 1313 Mockingbird Lane have proved that such show-business lightning doesn't strike twice. I gained great respect for Fred Gwynne in particular, who suffered physically and emotionally during the show...a brilliant performer and a great human being! And Al Lewis-though it's somewhat disturbing to think that I am now older than Mister Lewis was when he portrayed Grandpa, I am dazzled by what he brought to the role. Not content with traipsing out the old Lugosi "I want to suck your blood...blah!" stuff, Mr. Lewis created a unique and loveable character from the ground up. Although he may not have been given carte blanche, he certainly took it and ran with it. Butch Patrick, Yvonne DeCarlo and Pat Priest all knew what would work and surprised you with their brilliant work on the show. In short, a wonderful book about a classic of television history...The Munsters!The Munsters: A Trip Down Mockingbird Lane OverviewIf you recognise the famous Mockingbird Lane address, you probably grew up in the 1960's and never missed a chance to see the Munsters. Now, it's time to rediscover Herman and Lily, Grandpa, Eddie and Marilyn in this entertaining, comprehensive look at the first family of fright. A complete episode guide makes "The Munsters" the must-have companion to watching the series on DVD, while hundreds of rare photographs from the archives of Universal Studios plus interviews with cast and crew reveal the deepest, darkest secrets of the Munster family. Foreword by Yvonne DeCarlo (who played the wife, Lily Munster) and Afterword by Butch Patrick (who played the son, Eddie Munster) are included.
