Ken Weatherwax, Pugsley from 'The Addams Family,' dies at age 59
Ken Weatherwax, who played the child character Pugsley on "The Addams Family" television series in the 1960s, has died. He was 59.
Weatherwax died of a heart attack at his Box Canyon, California, home over the weekend, said Joey D. Vieira, his half brother. Weatherwax's body was found on Sunday.
Pugsley, the son of Gomez and Morticia, was a member of the family of macabre oddballs in the television series, which aired on ABC from 1964 to 1966 with its familiar, finger-snapping theme song.
Every kid in my neighborhood gathered together on Friday nights to watch the Addams Family.That must have been a pain in the neck to our parents because we alternated houses.We would all snap our fingers along with the intro.I know how corny that sounds but we lived to see each new episode.
