One of the more wholesome aspects of the Addams Family is how much Gomez loves his wife, Morticia, and he will often be driven into a frenzy of kisses when she speaks foreign languages.
The characters were first portrayed in the 1960s TV series by John Astin and Carolyn Jones, and they are often regarded as the definitive portrayals of the characters.
John Astin secretly loved Carolyn Jones behind the scenes, but he was never able to admit his true feelings while she was still alive.

The Addams Family characters were never named in the original comics, and it was only when the show was being made that they needed to create names.
The name Morticia was chosen as a pun on the word mortician, and actor John Astin chose the name of Gomez.
7. Gomez Fencing With A Sword
Gomez is a man of many talents, including fencing!
John Astin portrayed the character for many years, as he not only played him in the 1960s and 70s but also voiced him in a cartoon series that came out in 1992.
8. Morticia In A Gothic Armchair
Morticia is a morbid yet loving character who is known for her witchy style. She was the first Addams Family character to be created, and her husband Gomez was created four years after her.

Their eccentricity and love for the macabre never changed, though!
