Who Asked For This: 'The Munsters' Series Remake

We have another series remake coming. This one is 'The Munsters'.

TV Guide reports:

Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller is taking another stab at developing a remake of The Munsters at NBC.

Fuller has met with NBC executives in recent weeks about revisiting his adaptation of the 1960s black-and-white classic. Fuller first developed a The Munsters revival last year, but NBC ultimately passed on the script. Nonetheless, NBC Entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt liked the general idea and asked Fuller to head back to the keyboard.

This isn't your mummy's The Munsters. While the original was a half-hour sitcom about blue collar Monster-Americans, Fuller's take on The Munsters will be an edgier, slightly darker hour-long show. Fuller is expected to more deeply explore the origins of how the residents of 1313 Mockingbird Lane came to be.

There will still be plenty of humor, and all the original characters are still there: Family patriarch Herman Munster; his vampy wife Lily Munster; eccentric Grandpa; eager son Eddie Munster; and strangely normal niece Marilyn Munster. Even Spot — Eddie's pet dragon — is expected to have a role.
