Can you remember the names of all these non-human characters in The Addams Family?
Do you know what these kooky relatives, pets and even plants were called?
The Addams Family parodied the “typical” American midcentury household while also remaining loving and hilarious. The show featured many animals alongside the titular family and sometimes a non-human character was a member of the family!
Here are the relatives, pets and plants that all had unique names on the kooky series. Can you guess the right moniker for each one?
-
This cousin of the Addams family was named…

The Addams’ pet lion was named…
-
This disembodied but extremely helpful hand was called…
-
Pugsley’s pet octopus was named after which Greek philosopher?

-
This plant had quite the appetite! It was named…
-
The family vulture was named…
-
Wednesday had a pet lizard named…
-
The Addams’ piranhas were named after which tragic pair?
-
Even the growling polar bear rug had a name. What was it?

I take issue with calling Cousin Itt non human. If not human, Itt wouldn't be a cousin.
I prefer Addams to Munsters; I have my reasons.

It wasn't until this show that the family had first names. There was rarely any dialog in the one frame comic strip so they didn't really need names. But when they wanted to make the show they ask Charles Addams to finally give them names and he came up with the perfect names we know today after a quarter century of being nameless.
7/10...I chose Bonnie and Clyde for #9 😆

Staring Michael Douglas/Robert Duvall/Barbara Hershey
Falling Down (1993) 1 hr 52 seconds
Director: Joel Schumacher
Take the hottest day of the year, a traffic gridlock, cracked pavements, dirty streets, unwarranted hostility and a general feeling of being short changed. Then add the frustrations of having an estranged wife and child, an extremely jaded and unbalanced mindset, and the frustration of being obsolete with no marketable skills. Set them against the decadent back drop of modern day LA where if you are 'Not economically viable,' you are of no use, and the result is Falling Down.

7/10 Didn't know the octopus, vulture or lizard......apparently they are NOT Plato, Cynthia & Beelzebub....although I think Cynthia would have been a much better name for the vulture.
