To elaborate a little, I watched season 1 of married with children a while ago and it struck me as a more modern I love Lucy. I can't speak to later seasons.

The Munsters... well, I think I've seen a few episodes. I don't recall the wife (Lily) doing much in the episodes I watched, to be honest. I did see the recent Munsters movie, and Herman is both the cause and solution to their problems, Lily doesn't really do much from what I recall, if she has a comedic premise it's the ridiculousness of her falling for Herman.

The Munster movies are unwatchable. They should never have been made. The TV series, though, is nigh perfect. Some nice touches are the mirrors that shatter whenever Herman looks in them, and the trombone accents are inspired.
