How many in their lifetime, has dealt with a bully at one time or another. Even though this episode carries the retaliation over the top. Doesn't mean the victims haven't thought about these "return the favor " so to speak. However, The Munsters are a great family show as a whole. I still give this episode a 10. Because it sets a premise bully me and I'll make sure you think twice the next time. Which in the end it does that. The water and the electricity is funny but during syndication this episode was passed many times. For fear of copycats. Bullies are loaners and insecure themselves. Buy the majority of Munster fans will love the way this is played out.

Nobody calls me old droopy drawers and gets away with that!

Another of my favorite episodes I use to watch with my childhood friend Steve after school. This episodes showcases bullying. Eddie (Butch Patrick), is being teased by another boy at school Jack (Jack Minty). Meanwhile down at the Parlor (Funeral Home) Herman becomes the result of numerous pranks by the pestering co-worker Clyde (Chet Stratton). As a viewer I have to say it took daring on Clyde's part to try to anger Herman with his superhuman strength. At first Lily (Yvonne De Carlo) tells Herman to give his son advice on a non violent approach. The next day Herman is getting abused by Clyde at work. Eddie receives a black eye from Jack. It's time to retaliate. The dungeon becomes a gymnasium and training center for Eddie and Herman. Love the makeshift punching bag with Clyde's face on it. The next day Eddie is provoked by Jack and Edward Wolfgang Munster connects on a right cross to Jack's Chin. There's more to this story and more laughs. Side note for actor Chet Stratton (Clyde) who was asked back for a few more episodes of the Munsters. Chet a veteran actor of Movies and television was frequent guest on numerous talk shows. Chet always worried about his finances . If he wasn't acting he would take on regular jobs like driving a furniture truck or working on an oil tanker bound for Europe. Chet suffered a massive heart attack a few years after this episode.
