I admit it: I liked The Munsters until I was old enough to realize that the only thing funny about it was Fred Gwynne in the Frankenstein/Herman Munster outfit. After that, it was all Addamses. Much clevererererer.
I should note that both live-action series finished their runs of original episodes before I was on solid foods, so I only saw any of them in syndication, which makes it tough for me to place how old I was when my sensibilities shifted.
Munsters: Dumb. Mundane. Typical Hollywood inanity. (Something about that "Frankenstein monster crossed with vampiress begetting wolf-boy and normal girl" concept just totally disrupts my willing suspension of disbelief.)
FYI: Jackie Coogan (Uncle Fester) was a combat glider pilot in WW2, serving in the China-Burma-India theater. A brave man to volunteer for such a dangerous duty!
Adams
Addams!
Addams, of course! The Munsters were fun, but the Addams family had John Astin and Jackie Coogan.

No Contest, Addams. I do vaguely remember some dreams about Morticia... never mind.
Of course the question was confusing to me because I'd never heard of Addams cheese.
Addams ... no question.
Addams, of course
Addams.
Addams of course!!
Um ... neither?
Definitely, always and forever, Addams.
Addams: Smart. Satirical. Humorous.
Munsters: Dumb. Mundane. Typical Hollywood inanity. (Something about that "Frankenstein monster crossed with vampiress begetting wolf-boy and normal girl" concept just totally disrupts my willing suspension of disbelief.)

The answer is The Addams Family - of course...and mostly because I was a lot like Wednesday.
