Correct Answer: The Addams Family The somewhat gothic yet erotic character of Morticia Addams was played by Carolyn Jones in the 1960s TV Show, The Addams Family. The Addams Family was an American TV Series from the 1960s that portrayed a family of rather unconventional people who seemed to have no rules. Carolyn Jones played Morticia as she wore her hair long with naturally wavy hair that would be later tied up into a bun or knotted ponytail. In each episode, Morticia appeared in the flesh, clad only in black stockings and garters. She had her peculiar taste for dressing in very little clothing; always wearing just one piece of jewelry on her fingers, a golden bangle. The actress herself was a Goth; she even kept pet snakes and toads as pets. When asked why she played the part of Morticia in The Addams Family TV Show, Carolyn Jones replied: "I liked her because she was so bizarre. She had no shame about being naked, which I thought was fantastic". It is not surprising that Morticia's character became the symbol of alternative female sexuality during the 1960s. This was possibly due to the fact that Morticia dressed like a cross between an early 20th century vampire and a dominatrix or prostitute. In other words, her clothes were more suited for characters from Gothic literature than what one would see on most television shows in the 1960s.
