    A Prince will come.

    I don't recall The Munsters. I must have watched them.

    I tuned into this episode to see Don Edmonds, who just died.

    He played a student who happened upon the house as grandpa (Al Lewis) was trying to turn a frog into a Prince for Marilyn (Pat Priest), as they saw no hope of her ever finding anyone on her own as ugly as she was. In fact, she was extremely beautiful, and it was the rest of the family that was ugly.

    Edmonds did a great job and the whole show was just hilarious.

    I think I will tune into some more episodes just to see how crazy it can get.

    A very zany, well written episode.

    Dave Willock comically played utility workers on Green Acres. Here as a cop he was humorous trying to rationalize the ghoulish Munsters as college pranksters. Roger Perry conned Mayberry's townspeople on The Andy Griffith Show.

    A fun Pat Priest themed episode. She was gorgeous throughout in various outfits. Marilyn got upset at Roger Perry for simply truthfully describing Herman and Grandpa. It's been a very inconsistent season 2 so far. Hopefully more great episodes like this one.
