One of my favorite classic shows was the Munsters. Fred Gwynne was the star but the show wouldn't have been the same without Lewis. I loved hearing his one liners and who could forget all the failed experiments. He played Grandpa exactly as it should have been. From the way he scolded Herman to his cracking laugh he made Grandpa a memorable character. Even though he became typecast in this role, he not only minded it but embraced it. Opening up a restaurant called "Grandpa's" and filing a request to have his name appear as Grandpa Al Lewis on a ballot was evidence he wanted to be remembered for his work on that show. He was a great actor and will surely be missed.
