My Favorite Television Heroes! Part 2

3. Morticia Addams

Portrayed by the great Carolyn Jones. The loving mother on the Addams Family.

I like Morticia mainly because she never lets  anyone bother her. In fact, nothing really does bother her (unless it’s sunny outside). One of her best quotes is when she is talking to a lady about redecorating.

Morticia: “I have the perfect color for the chairs… Black!”

Lady:  (Looking confused)

Morticia: “And the curtains… Black!”

Lady:” A-a-and the carpet? Black?”

Morticia: “No! Off-Black! You have to have some contrast you know…”

4. Frank and Marie

The image of an old, grumpy, married couple. They both combine to make one character. Frank and Marie are always fighting over something, but it is possible to tell that they have an unbreakable bond. Their arguments are always side-splitting. Dorris Roberts is also one of my favorite actresses. She’s today’s answer to Aunt Bee! (I’m trying to fix the text on this one, but it won’t work)

One of their best quotes is…

Marie: “If you don’t give Ray back his money, then you’re not the man I married.”

Frank: “I win again!”

5. Aunt Bee (Beatrice Taylor)

Speaking of Aunt Bee… She is also one of my all time favorite characters. Aunt Bee makes the viewer feel right at home. She is probably the hardest working person in the Taylor household. She has dinner cooked every night, and breakfast on the table by six in the morning. She is a model homemaker for every generation.

6. Grandpa Munster

Grandpa has been one of my favorite characters since I was a child. He is constantly bothered by his son-in-law, Herman. Apparently, Grandpa has lived to see many historical events, such as “The French Revolution”. His age is never clearly stated on the show. Grandpa is played by Al Lewis. His trademark quote is “Ooooh Boy!”, sarcastically, of course…
