I hate to reveal how I’m spending my afternoon, but TV Land is
currently showing an episode of “The Munsters” from 1965 titled “Far Out
Munsters.” In the episode, a band which sounds like the Monkees takes over the mansion and the Munster family relocates to a hotel. The band holds a party which is attended by hipsters and beatniks. The family hates the hotel and comes back to the house where they discover the party in progress. During most Munsters episodes, “normal” people are scared
away from the house by the very sight of the family, especially Herman
Munster. In this episode, the hipsters think the family is cool and
everybody hangs out.
Hey, don’t forget that Grandpa was a long-time radical who did a show
on WBAI for years!
