The Addams Family is a 1973 animated series, the first of two Saturday-morning cartoons produced by Hanna-Barbera, based on characters created for The New Yorker magazine by cartoonist Charles Addams.
Overview
In this first animated series, which aired on NBC from 1973 to 1975, the Addams family traveled in their Creepy Camper, a recreational vehicle that resembled the Creepy Coupe from Wacky Races.
The characters previously appeared in one episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies. During the run of the series, the Addams characters appeared in a series of animated public service announcements: one each for the Boy Scouts of America, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Forest Service.
In other media
