When it comes to The Munsters, NBC execs know this: What Bryan Fuller did to recreate TV's beloved gang of misfits did not work for them.
The network hired Fuller do update the monstrous family. He turned in a pilot called Mockingbird Lane. The network opted not to run with a series based on that pilot; instead, their aired it at a Halloween special.
That doesn't mean The Munsters is entirely dead at NBC, however.
Deadline spoke with NBC head Bob Greenblatt about Mockingbird Lane and he explained, “We just decided that it didn’t hold together well enough to yield a series. t looked beautiful and original and creative, but it just all ultimately didn’t come together…it just didn’t ultimately creatively all work.”
He added, “I won’t say we won’t do another version of The Munsters again."
So, it's back to the drawing board, but I don't suspect we'll be seeing anything new for quite a while.
