Living Color

When watching old black and white TV, I sometimes wonder what the sets and costumes really looked like. Which is why I find this book on sitcoms so cool. Lavishly illustrated, it finally answers the question what color scheme did Laura Petrie used to decorate her New Rochelle home.

Even cooler is this five-minute clip from the unaired Munsters pilot. In color, with new music, a somewhat different cast and weird opening titles (now that we're used to what aired), it actually gives the show a creepiness the actual thing never had.
