When NBC approached Fred Gwynne to reprise his role as Herman Munster after fifteen years, he was initially uninterested. However, his second wife, Deb Gwynne, suggested that he accept the role and just ask the network for a large paycheck. Fred thought NBC would refuse, but they surprisingly agreed, and thus he accepted the role.

It's strange that by the end of the decade, a new "Munster" TV show would surface. This is a chance to see some of the original cast one last time. Not a bad TV film.

Fred Gwynne insisted that original make-up artists Karl Silvera and Abe Haberman, who were both still working in the business, be brought aboard to make sure the vintage Munsters look was retained.
