Trivia

Charles Addams' cartoon characters had no first names until 1963, when he gave them names for the TV series. Pugsley was Pubert until ABC nixed that as "too suggestive." Addams named Gomez for an old family friend, and Wednesday after a line in a nursery rhyme, "Wednesday's child is full of woe." See more...

Mistake Continuity: The chutes that Wednesday and Pugsley use changes positions when Fester chases Wednesday.

Mistake Continuity: In the part in the motel where THING is doing morse code on the table to Gomez you can see the cut-out in the table where the guy's hand is sticking through the table.

Mistake Continuity: The Red Indian statue Lurch incinerates at the motel later reappears undamaged.

Mistake Continuity: During the Mamoshka dance, they cut away to Tully and Greta talking, behind them walking around we see guests who are in the ballroom at the same time.

Mistake Continuity: When Mrs. Craven introduces Tully to her "son" Gordon, Gordon grabs Tully by the shirt collar with his right hand but in the next shot is using his left hand.

Mistake Continuity: Margaret escapes from the Chinese finger prison, but in the next scene she's still struggling to free herself.

Mistake Continuity: When Thing is using sign language to tell Gomez that Morticia is in danger, there's a blue coffee mug sitting on the table (to Thing's immediate right) that vanishes every time the camera angle reverses.

Mistake Revealing: During the Mamoshka dance, right when Gomez throws the knife high in the air (the one that lands in Fester's mouth), the camera goes to a wide shot when the knife is in the air, and you can plainly see that the man juggling with Fester isn't Raul Julia, but his stunt double.

Mistake Other: When Gomez begins to flip through his desk calendar, we see that "today" is Thursday, March 28, 1991. He then turns to the date of the "next quarter". The left hand page shows Thursday, August 8, but the right hand page shows Tuesday, September 9.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": At the beginning, the carolers are on the porch singing. The camera never pans, so this means that the carolers are facing away from the house (towards Gate) - seems rather odd. The only reasons for this would have been to make the clean camera move through the crowd and up the house.
