Speaking of family, redefined, we've also been watching the new Addam's Family DVDs. I'm a bit ambivalent about this. In a real way it is a one-joke concept, stretched and stretched. And yet the ingredients are so delightful, Morticia and Gomez in particular, it is hard to complain.

I'm not sure it will end in tears but, as Morticia would say, I do hope it is gloomy.
