In Mockingbird Lane, sweet little Eddie Munster (Mason Cook) is a normal kid about to enter the horrors of puberty. Truth is, he’s about to discover that for him becoming a teenager means growing hair in truly unexpected places — as in all over his body — every time the moon is full! Eddie’s got it pretty good though. His loving, supportive, run-of-the-mill family includes his mom Lily (Portia de Rossi), the daughter of Dracula; his dad Herman (Jerry O’Connell), who brings new meaning to “Frankenstein”; and Grandpa (Eddie Izzard), who would give Dracula a run for his money if he weren’t actually Dracula! Of course then there’s creepy cousin Marilyn (Charity Wakefield), who’s really the odd one because she’s so completely normal.

Buying a house these days is a nightmare, so Herman and Lily are shocked that no one scooped up the rambling Victorian mansion at 1313 Mockingbird Lane that was the site of a series of grisly hobo murders. Settling into their new place, they’re quickly onto the mission at hand: to gently ease Eddie into the reality of his werewolf adolescence. But it’s not always so easy to accept that your child is a little “different” from the rest of the kids. Meanwhile, Herman, who works as a funeral director, is suffering from a heart condition. Since he’s made up mostly of spare parts, he knew his makeshift heart would eventually give out. No worries though, because Grandpa, who is pretty good at procuring body parts, is on the case. All Herman cares about is finding a new heart with the same capacity to love Lily as much as he has for so many decades.

So I went into this with an open mind.  I really enjoyed the down to earth quality of herman and Lilly.   It was nice to have Edie goin through the "change" at the beginning and really getting to know the characters.   I did NOT like grandpa.   ::/ he was annoying and tried too hard and creepy bad not creepy funny.  .  

Still recieved a C+ B-   For me.

It was quite an amusing show but Grandpa was quirky rather than creepy IMO. Edie becoming IT should be interesting but i didn't know he was werewolf.

Let see whether this show will get a second season since it's one of those odd show people either like or hate ?

Very true.  It's definately a bubble show and on the edge of falling off at that.  Paired with Grimm is good but on a friday is bad....>SOOOOOO

TBD/On The Bubble after only one episode is disappointing as it was enjoyable and Eddie wanting to be a vegetarian werewolf was amusing

Your talking about a second season is ironic as it might not get a second episode
