Funniest Munsters episode of them all! When he plays basketball is also hilarious.

These clips are great with the commentary! This makes me want to watch more episodes! The complete Munsters TV series dvd set is pretty cheap right now on Amazon!😀👍🏻

The ballpark scenes were filmed at Wrigley Field in Los Angeles, former home of the Los Angeles Angels of the Pacific Coast League and the Los Angeles Angels in their first year as an expansion team in the American League in 1961. Lily warned Herman about spending too much time in the sun, and he replied, "I wouldn't want to lose my parlour pallor."

It's a shame Wrigley Field was demolished. My father-in-law grew up nearby. Great place to see a game.

No, Wrigley was an enclosed ballpark in a neighborhood. There were houses all around, and beyond LF. In the baseball scenes, there are pine trees.

Mister Ed and the Dodgers is a fun episode!

I grew up in the 80’s when the Munsters had a big following so I grew up watching these re-runs. I loved it then and love watching them now. The writing was outstanding and still makes me laugh as an adult. It was simple and harmless humor with no agendas and they didn’t need to be obscene or over the top to make people laugh, that is real genius.

Great stuff brother...loved it

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comment

The funniest episode to me was when a demolition crew showed up to demolish their house and while trying to talk politely to them herman gently nudges a bulldozer out of his way so he can get closer to them. That scared them away. Lol

The physical gags involving Herman's strength are hilarious in large part because of Fred Gwynne's performance. The show has aged so well.

I love the Munsters

They stopped serving beer at Dodger Stadium. They lost the opener.

Grandpa Munster Came to be a Bat.

closer to 60 years later

There was I think 2 episodes of the Beverly Hillbillies that had Leo Durocher on it. He was trying to sign Jethro to be a pitcher.

Funny I was watching this episode with the Dodgers earlier tonight.

Great thoughts. I do like what is said

Didn't Mr. Ed, the talking horse, play baseball in an episode of that show?

One of my favorite baseball episodes was 8 members of the 1969 World Champion Mets Tommy Agee, Jerry Grote, Bud Harrelson, Cleon Jones, Ed Kranepool, Tug McGraw, Art Shamsky and Ron Swonoda were on Everybody Loves Raymond show episode in 1999

The name of the episode is "Big Shots" Season 3 Episode 19. First aired on March 1, 1999

Awesome commentary. Did you ever see the Joey Bishop show episode with Leo Durocher and Phil Foster? In that one, the two former best of friends will no longer talk to one another because Foster blames the other for the Dodgers abandoning Brooklyn for LA.

I found Foster Brooks roasting Leo Durocher on the Joey Bishop show. Funny bit.

Wow! Uncle Fester doesn't look a day over 300.

I think there was an episode of "Dennis the Menace", with Sandy Koufax.

I remember an episode of Gentle Ben where Bob Gibson was a special guest star. I vaguely remember it and I don't think there are any clips of the episode. At least I haven't had an inclination to search for any. If I remember correctly, Mark got a hold of a book that had dubious strategies about playing baseball. When somehow Bob Gibson enters the story (it escapes me how), young Mark is taught a lesson in good sportsmanship.
