The Addams family was, in fact, both magical and supernatural for its depiction of a healthy, loving, supportive, and fun married m/f couple.

This is now officially an Addams family appreciation post

In order to depict such purity and love in a m/f relationship, one must first set the foundation that these people are odd and not the norm. (per media standards)

They cared about their children, their children’s interests, and wanted the kids to always be true to themselves. How peculiar!

Gomez and Morticia never showed negative jealousy towards each other’s past love interests. Even going to far as complimenting them for being special to their true love.  How bizarre!

They could forgive almost any character flaw in a friend or relative. The only thing that could not be forgiven was betrayals and pastels. Weird amirite?

Morticia is a woman’s woman. She allies herself with other women instead of competing with them. She even seeks to understand women different from herself and her beliefs. Strange.

Gomez wants Morticia to have whatever Morticia wants. He doesn’t give her permission, he actively supports her and motivates her. Fa-reaky.

I seem to recall once reading a review that said that Gomez and Morticia were the only couple on television in the 1960s whom you could actually imagine producing children.

as a kid I noted how Morticia always made a point of having a very pleasant sit-down with the villain. She always seemed genuinely interested in their plans & pluck. Serene. She was Gnosis. She brought the story’s narrative into clear understanding, and smiled inscrutably.

I also noted how Gomez took instant visceral delight in 100% of things life threw at him. Everyone wanted his money, so he gave them some. And laughed loud. He was the Volition - pure, elated action. One force alone his will off the track of orgiastic self-destruction: Morticia speaking French.

not too amazing I often daydreamed I was an Addams

“father; I’m… nonbinary with relation to gender; that is -”

MAGNNNNNNIFICENT! THING, BE A GOOD CHAP AND FETCH SOME CHAMPAGNE

“I think I may be queer as well”

Mais naturalment, darling; you’re an Addams. [moon-twinkle]

…CARA MIA! THAT’S FRENCH
