Top Critics Reviews

I left the episode wanting to see more of where Fuller and company wanted to take these Munsters, which is a good thing - leaving your audience wanting more is a positive, obviously.

Outrageous, eccentric, funny, campy - and too creepy for small kids. A real shame this isn't sticking around.

rotten:
The hour plays like the failed pilot that it is, with a lot of exposition and an episode-ending tease that's intended to leave us wanting more.

There's something admirable about a big swing, even when it doesn't connect.

rotten:
Not particularly scary, not particularly funny, this little-pilot-lost doesn't quite get there, despite an impressive pedigree.
