Eddie Munster on The Munsters remake...

The news of The Munsters remake for NBC just came out last week and already TMZ has hunted down Butch Patrick (who played Eddie Munster on the original series) to find out what he thinks about this.

Read his thoughts & his casting suggestion for Herman Munster on the TMZ website.

In addition to being in The Munsters, did you know that Butch Patrick was also in another strange 1/2-hour show a few years later? He played Mark in a Saturday morning live action series called Lidsville from 1971 - 1973. It was one of the early Sid & Marty Krofft shows (which I'm a big fan of) - the main characters were mostly hats.

Here's the intro to it...


The complete series of Lidsville and The Munsters are both available on DVD.
