NBC and Bryan Fuller remaking "The Munsters"

Posted Image


by Michael Ausiello and Andy Patrick


Consider this an early Halloween present from me to you: Pushing Daisies mastermind Bryan Fuller is toiling away on a modern-day reboot of the creepshow classic The Munsters!
So far, NBC, with whom Fuller has an overall deal, has only ordered a pilot. But since the potential series is being described to me as “Modern Family meets True Blood,” I have a good feeling about it.
Not only that, but rumor has it no less than Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy) is eyeing a behind the scenes role in the project.
So, um, once you’ve picked your jaw up off the floor, let’s see the synonyms for “amazing” you come up with to describe the very notion of this show below.

Agreed. Leave it be. They tried to remake it in the 80s and while it lasted as many episodes as the original, I believe it was pretty widely panned. Most of the scripts were re-used and the sets were poor.

However, if it's a total re-imagining and new plot lines and character styles, I'd check it out. I can't see it doing well. I applaud NBC for looking a little outside of the box though.
