Trivia: THAT
THING YOU DO: Ever wonder whose hand was in the box on "The
Addams Family?" The credits say:
"Thing. . . . . . . . . .Itself ," but the
truth is Ted Cassidy (Lurch) was on the other end of " Thing
". When both Thing and Lurch were in the same
scene, the assistant director, Jack Voglin, would,
well, lend a hand. Was Thing right or left handed?
In most scenes Thing is right handed, but, if you watch
carefully, you can spot a lefty here and there. It was a
good gig for Cassidy, he even signed a separate contract to
perform his handicraft. For more trivia on classic TV, visit: www.mortystv.com

Fester and Ted Cassidy as giant butler Lurch were part of the kooky
