Talk:The Addams Family Theme

Performer?
How odd that the article doesn't say who performed the original TV show version. Rees11 (talk) 00:45, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Childish Parodies
The theme song has been parodied often over the eons. I remember that this simple version was popular during the summer of 1966, the first year I attended summer camp (Johnson's Boys Club in Los Angeles): The Addams Family started when Uncle Fester farted. The children are retarded; The Addams Family!

(Followed by pumping the left arm twice with the right hand cupped in the left armpit so as to produce a farting sound. If you were unable to produce the sound using said technique you were branded a "retard" for the rest of the day.) A much more elaborate version is often quoted which is plainly not a genuine product of childish whimsy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by r_e_t_a_r_d (talk) 20:12, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
