When thinking about romance, specifically romance in film or TV, most people think of the romantic comedy genre. These “Chick-Flicks” and other traditional depictions of relationships often dominate the idea of romance. However, one of pop culture’s best couples actually came out of the horror genre.The Addams Family is the satirical inversion of the American Dream version of the ideal nuclear family. From the 1964 sitcom to the ’90s film duo to Netflix’s Wednesday series, the story follows a family that’s a bit odd. It’s made up of Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Lurch, Grandmama, Uncle Fester, and Thing, the sentient hand. They’re all extraordinarily unique, though many consider them to be strange. Their macabre aesthetics and quirky way of life made The Addams Family a still relevant staple in pop culture.The 1960s provided a lot for pop culture, including many classic sitcoms. These include shows like Bewitched, Gilligan’s Island, The Munsters, and The Brady Bunch, among many others. While The Munsters introduced a Halloween style to the average sitcom, there were largely traditional and conservative values reflected from the era onto those shows. As such, The Addams Family represented a bit of counterculture. The series essentially subverted the average show in many ways.Related: Wednesday’s Christina Ricci Among 2024’s Hollywood Walk of Fame Honorees
