Theatrical Release Information:
The Munsters: Season 02

Season two of The Munsters finds that monstrous Munster aggregation -- Frankenstein Monster look-alike Herman Munster (Fred Gwynne), his vampirish spouse ,Lily (Yvonne de Carlo), their werewolf son, Eddie (Butch Patrick), and Lily's Dracula-like "Grandpa" (Al Lewis) -- still innocently terrifying their neighbors, random visitors, and potential boyfriends of the Munsters' gorgeous niece Marilyn (Pat Priest), the only normal-looking member of the family. Of course, we all know that, despite their fearsome appearance, the Munsters are gentle and good-hearted...but if the rest of the world knew this, there wouldn't be any show, would there? The first of the season's 32 episodes is "Herman's Child Psychology," in which Eddie plans to run away from the Munster Mansion (provided he can avoid the full moon, one supposes!) Later episodes of note include "Happy 100th Anniversary," with Herman and Lily taking odd jobs (the odder the better) to afford anniversary presents for one another; "Just Another Pretty Face," wherein a bolt of lightning causes Herman to become "disfigured" -- that is, he looks like handsome Fred Gwynne without makeup; "Zombo," a classic outing with Louis Nye as a dyspeptic TV horror-show host; "Herman's Sorority Caper," if for no other reason than it features a decidedly pre-One Day at a Time Bonnie Franklin; and the last episode filmed for the series, "Prehistoric Monster," in which a nutty professor (Harvey Korman) concludes that Herman is the Missing Link! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
