Cousin Itt Visits the Addams Family - S1-E20
Revealing mistake: In the wide shot of the family watching Cousin Itt perform magic tricks, you can see Felix Silla's legs as they probably didn't intend for the whole character to be in frame.
The Addams Family (1964)
1 mistake in Cousin Itt Visits the Addams Family - chronological order
Starring: John Astin, Carolyn Jones, Jackie Coogan, Ted Cassidy
Gomez: The L stands for Lucifer.
Morticia: Very appropriate for a politician.
Trivia: John Astin (Gomez), Carolyn Jones (Morticia) and Ted Cassidy (Lurch) are the only actors to appear in all 64 episodes of the show.
Question: Ted (Lurch) Cassidy was a total of six feet nine inches tall. A number of times, especially in Season 2 Episode 6, "Cousin Itt's Problem", it seems the top of his head barely clears to top of the door jamb. Were the doors seven feet tall back then?

Chosen answer: Being that this was filmed in a TV studio, the set would have been specially designed and built to accommodate Cassidy's height. Also, I live in an older house (100 years-old), and all the inner and outer doors are eight feet tall.
