The Life of Carolyn Jones Morticia Addams Family Cast Secrets

Today Cool Classics looks at the life and career of the wonderful actress, Carolyn Jones, who played Morticia and the Addams Family TV Series.
Did you know that she Co-Starred in King Creole with Elvis Presley?
Or her roles in the Movies, Invasion of The Body Snatchers and House of Wax. How about her reoccurring role as Marsha, Queen of Diamonds on the Batman 66 TV Show? Did you see her on the Wonder Woman show, playing Queen Hippolyta with Linda Carter? How about her marriages to Aaron Spelling and Peter Bailey-Britton? Why did she disappear from television in the 70s? What about her comeback role on the Daytime Soap, Capital?
This mini documentary covers it all, along with her Sad Death.

[@Jilleyful]

In my opinion, Carolyn Jones was the best Morticia ever! No one else even comes close!

[@davidcox3076]

There is a new series out now "Wednesday", that my daughter is obsessed with. The actress who portrays Morticia does a good job. But I agree with you. Carolyn will always be the best.

[@JumalaPlays]

@@davidcox3076 Wednesday is directed by Tim Burton, and he hand picked all the roles! I think he did an amazing job, the new cast is just marvellous!

[@austinbevis4266]

You can feel her passion and respect for the art. I feel like you just have actors who are only in it for the money now

[@raywood8187]

Carolyn Jones really did have that Queen of Diamonds power. I loved the Addams family as a kid in the 60's and I remember my mom saying how much she loved Carolyn too, how pretty she was and what a great actress she was. Cancer took my mother in 1971, bless her sweet soul.

[@AmandaHugandKiss411]

I never really realized how progressive the Adam's Family was with their parenting as well as portraying a healthy marriage model. One that shows equality, open communication and support. The show was really ahead of the times. Thank you for making this video.

[@coiledsteel8344]

But Feminism IS Cancer

[@merylew4969]

You forgot her role in "Hole in the Head" with Frank Sinatra in the early '60s

[@ingridcornwell4341]

I remember reading an article years ago that marriage counselors were telling their patients to watch the Addams Family to learn what a healthy marriage looked like. That’s how inspiring the chemistry between Carolyn Jones and John Aston as a married couple was. 💞

[@CoolClassics]

Very Good Idea!

[@WoodlandPrincess369]

That explains the spike in divorce rates during that time. lol. literally they told people to imitate the idiot box. sad.

[@ApartmentKing66]

Astin.

[@margeritahorvath8306]

It has been said that a healthy marriage is when you partner is your best friend.

[@janetholmes9413]

It was also the writing. So many shows back then had couples fighting. She and Gomez were a wonderful couple and great parents--all things considered ;-)

[@lauramason7445]

I loved it when Gomez called her Cara Mia ("my beloved"), and was driven wild by the slightest of her actions especially when she spoke French. I thought they were the sexiest couple on TV before I knew what sexy meant. Remember when he would kiss her arm up and down when she spoke French? Watching this video shocked me that the show was on for only 2 years. Carolyn wil never be forgotten as she was a beauty beyond the surface and a rare talent.

[@bbhrdzaz]

You don't foster a career that spans decades unless you truly have talent. Looks can only get you so far, but the talent rides out for a lifetime. RIP CJ, you are part of our lives till they end.

[@guitarbrad]

Darn, I'm all misty here! What a lovely, heartfelt tribute. I agree 100% - Carolyn was one of a kind.

[@tm13tube]

She was apparently reliable, on time, lines learned and ready to work. She must have earned their respect for not being a whiner but being reliable.

[@MultiLizzydizzy]

Thank you for this lovely piece on my greatest hollywood heart throb Carolyn Jones. Keep up the good work. A real fan of your work, Kelly Huff

[@recidivistfighter4673]

She died young.

[@RicardoMartinez-jy5lo]

A great actress. More recently, the singer Madonna also has had that natural ability to play completely different roles in her videos, from the Virgin to a witch, and all of them convincingly. In Jungian psychology it is called the Trickster archetype, with which some people are born, thus their ability to transform themselves rather astoundingly.

[@pwndecaf]

She was far more influential than I thought. Love Morticia and Wednesday and the entire Addams Family!

[@BrokebackBob]

Absolutely the best biography that I have heard of Carolyn Jones, a totally underrated broad range actress who delighted millions with her portrayals. Bravo to Cool Classics!

[@AmandaHugandKiss411]

[@breeyoung8777]

A lovely bio of a lovely woman. You really did ur homework, had no idea she was so hard working and diverse. I knew her as the divine Morticia. In my opinion she was made for that role, she created her character, no else comes close. As a 6th grader, she was the one I wanted to b like. So elegant yet playful and those sparkling eyes! RIP Carolyn u r one of a kind.

[@032319581]

Addams Family is still my favorite! I loved the chemistry between Carolyn and John

[@lenellmarshall6595]

Yes mine, too. I watch till this day. John said, "they were attracted bro one another. From there chemistry on the show....I believed him.

[@jap1260]

That is so true. The chemistry between Gomez and Morticia was great. They convince you they were in love better than many other movies with a love story.

[@alphalunamare]

Her dancing with Lurch is simply amazing :-)

[@alancrisp1582]

I always feel a little sad these days when I see Carolyn Jones on the screen, Cancer is a terrible disease that never shows anyone any mercy . Still far too young to pass away . R.I.P Carolyn....

[@alexrafe2590]

Yes I completely agree, she was a great self possessed actress with many crucial gifts, comedic timing, that chameleon quality that let her disappear into many characters and play dramatic and funny roles with equal skill.

[@RicardoMartinez-jy5lo]

That chameleon quality, yes, as I mention above in Jungian psychology it is called the Trickster archetype, a natural talent someone is born with, or not.

[@falldownhard]

"The Addams Family" has long been one of my ten all-time favorite television series. But it's only in the past few years I've really become acquainted with the depth and breadth of Carolyn's work. If anyone has not yet seen the movie "Career" (also stars Shirley MacLaine in one of her earliest parts) - it's a lost gem, and Carolyn's performance in that was one of the finest I've ever seen by ANY actress. I so respect her work ethic and her professionalism - never a sloppy half-hearted performance by her even if it wasn't the best part or production. This was a wonderful, comprehensive tribute that I'm sure Carolyn would be thrilled to watch herself.

[@loisreese2692]

Thank you for the recommendation. I'll try to find Career.

[@irisofyma]

I love Career! She was great in everything

[@rodneykingston6420]

The sad character she played in The Bachelor Party - she steals the film in a tiny part.

[@bobaspholm4876]

A great overview of Carolyn's life. No mention was made or still shots from her supporting role in Marjorie Morningstar 1958...she won a Golden Globe for this....

[@TedBronson1918]

I'm glad to know that she liked her role as Morticia. I always loved the Addamms Family.

[@dntlss]

I was glad to hear that too,I hate when you read about someone that was a main character in a show that you loved as a child and they say how much they hated doing it later on in interviews,kinda deflates part of your childhood,David Hedison comes to mind in Voyage to the bottom of the sea,one of my favorite shows growing up in the 70s on reruns.

[@carlosgomes2783]

One of the best things about the Addams Family was that in spite of their eccentricities, Gomez and Morticia were obviously genuinely very much in love.

[@korndogsmom]

She was so beautiful. Being from Amarillo, my neighbor was her cousin. The family was so very proud of her. So I learned about her in my early years in the 60s. I couldn't appreciate the Spelling connection until later in my life. I loved watching this retrospect. Thanks for this.

[@michaelferreri1256]

Most noted for her unforgettable portrayal of Morticia Addams, this woman had a REMARKABLE career prior to that role. It's crazy to think she had such a wonderful run as a film and TV actress, only to be truly remembered for one classic character. That's the story of many of these television actors. Amazing. Thanks for all the hard work you do to bring these stories to life.

[@canitbechristine]

Wow. I didn't know anything of her background. She sounds like she had been a lovely person. It's sad that she had such a short life. 53 years is so young.

[@nathangraves1069]

what a Beautiful and fantastic actress Carolyn was, thank you for this biography. her play in Addams family is perfect, she is the perfect Morticia in my opinion...love her eyes and smile.

[@blackbolt3685]

Since I was a kid I always loved her as Morticia,but as I got older and noticed her in other movies,(which she couldn't hide too much because her eyes always gave it away for me),and I learned she wore a wig for Morticia,I gained even more respect for her as an actress,and her talent for morphing into different characters,despite her health issues she carried on gracefully. After watching this,I stand corrected,because I thought I read in a article that the part for Morticia was done with her in mind for the part,and,her husband had to convince her she was perfect for it or something like that,thanks for that enlightening info. 🤷🏿‍♂🤦🏿‍♂

[@timmack2415]

Bravo for this well written, researched and narrated video!

[@roberthenleynola]

What a wonderful tribute to the awesome Carolyn Jones. She has been one of my favorite actresses forever. Thank you ... this was a treasure.

[@BobbyOfEarth]

Among many other unknowns, I didn't realize Carolyn was such a versatile actress. I did notice one limitation towards playing an evil role, always a kind face and elegance, reminds me of a loving mother pretending to be mad at the kids. It's nice to know that her loving soul had ascended back to Source.. to be with the other Angels. Thank you, for sharing her life with us.

[@xtremenortherner]

Yes I agree,she had a very kind, loving expression..., in this sullen world where people try to be "intense" or "heavy" that would have made her standout even more..., she really deserved more fame than she had. Also at 2:35..., I can't see what was wrong with her nose that she had plastic surgery!?

[@DJHolte]

Just like pretty much any man or boy who watched The Addams Family, I fell in love with Carolyn. The whole cast was so perfect, and the onscreen magic between her and John Astin is something akin to catching lightning in a bottle. But I never knew about her marriage to Aaron Spelling, nor the fact that he basically was responsible for her casting on the show. Sad that she only lived to be 53.

That's amazing! Invasion of the body snatchers & the Addams Family is one of my favorite movies and TV show, but I never knew it was Carolyn in both roles!

[@robinthomas8121]

I knew about her career in motion pictures, and of her success in TV. "The Addams Family is among one of my favorites when I was a kid. Even in the commercials for "The Addams Family 2, whoever does Morticia's voice reminds me of her! Remember the days on "Capitol", she always looked stunning, but the first thought was always "Morticia" No one, (outside of Anjelica Huston in the movie), played the role better! I NEVER KNEW she was married to Aaron Spelling?!! She was a wonderful person to work with, I'm sure and really missed for her broad range of talent. Sorry, this was a little long, but thank you for the story.

It is truly amazing. Carolyn Jones is a master of disguise and characters. 😊

[@TheAuntieBa]

Since I l loved The Addams Family as a kid (70 years old now), I’d always assumed the cast were beloved to me because of it. But the main characters drew me to whatever they performed in, and Carolyn Jones was the perfect Morticia. John Aston was her ideal spouse, and Ted Cassidy WAS Lurch. I appreciated him and all the others wherever I saw them, not ruling out Jackie Coogan, whom I already knew as an actor; why I didn’t mention him earlier. But no one EVER replaces Carolyn Jones in any role. ❤️

Another great bio! Always thought Carolyn and John had great chemistry on Addams family. Would love to see a video on John Astin sometime 😊 Tfs and have a great weekend ❤👋

[@msr1116]

What impressed me was that Gomez and Morticia still had such passion for each other after years of marriage and after two children. A really good relationship that was satisfying to the both of them in ways sexual and otherwise. Tough to find in real life. It does happen but quite rare.

Once she’s in your system, it’s impossible to shake her off….and now, for me at 60, I’m finally discovering the KZbin Goth vids plus the Goth festivals, so much so that I am determined to dress as a Goth/ vampire for the next Whitby Goth festival in October 2022!

I often wonder what it would have looked like in color! The series is so underrated- the acting, the persona and chemistry between Gomez & Morticia is unmatched, the writing clever, the characters, the names, the sets and music perfect.
