* Herman Munster began trending on Twitter on June 4th, 2020 when a clip of a lesson he taught Eddie went viral with people commenting on how important it is even today
--> Herman: The lesson I want you to learn, is it doesn't matter what you look like. You could be tall or short, or fat or thin, ugly, or handsome..like your father..or you can be black or yellow or white, it doesn't matter. What does matter, is the size of your heart, and the strength of your character.

* Fred Gwynne infamously hated being typecast as Herman Munster, though in a later interview admitted he couldn't find himself to hate the actual character:
-->'''Gwynne:''' "I might as well tell you the truth. I love old Herman Munster. Much as I try not to, I can't stop liking that fellow."

* The confirmation that Rob Zombie's 2022 film adaptation is going to be Zombie's first PG rated film got positive reactions from many fans of the original series, who originally were worried Zombie would make the film a Main/DarkerAndEdgier reboot akin to the pilot for the proposed Series/MockingbirdLane reboot. Helping this is Zombie is actually a huge fan of the original series (even naming one of his most famous songs after the car from the show) and wants to keep the lighthearted spirit of the original intact.

* In "Zombo", Eddie starts to have hero worship for the titular television star, given his creepy and macabre appearance and personality. But when he sees that the real Zombo isn't nearly as scary or "good-looking" as he thought, he [[BrokenPedestal takes it as badly]] as you can expect and trashes the set on television. The heartwarming part comes when the actor who plays Zombo declares he's actually ''glad'' Eddie ruined the show. In reality, he's miserable with his career and has been trying to destroy his contract for months, and Eddie unwittingly has given him a chance to break away from being Zombo. Now he's free to follow he real passion, theater acting. The cherry on top is when the actor gives Eddie heartwarming [[AnAesop advice]]: Don't be like [[CelebrityIsOverrated Zombo]], and instead enjoy being a normal kid.

* Far Out Munsters has the family interacting with a group of young hippies renting the mansion for a weekend, and generally having a great time with them. While the episode has an element of making fun of the weirdness of the Hippy movement, it's indeed charming to see a group of people not being judgmental of the Munsters' appareance.

* Despite their niece, Marilyn's, "deformity" (as a normal human, she's considered "hideous" by the standards of the Munsters), it's obvious that Herman and Lily (and the rest of the family) genuinely love and care about Marilyn--Herman and Lily obviously see her more as their daughter instead of their niece, and they and the rest have even done stuff like try to help Marilyn find a boyfriend (always with poor results, but it's the thought that counts).

* "Cyrano De Munster" ends with Lily revealing she actually ''likes'' Herman's poems and even memorized one.

* "Treasure of Mockingbird Lane" has Eddie really excited about his family finding treasure and striking it rich. When he declares he's going to brag about their wealth to his friends, Lily wisely advises him not to. So instead, he asks if he can use their new-found wealth to buy his teacher an apple with a diamond in it. It's awfully thoughtful of Eddie to think about his teacher and, by some spontaneous fit of kindness, decide to [[NiceToTheWaiter bestow him/her a bit of the wealth]], especially when one bears in mind it's not a high-paying job.

* Despite their niece's "deformity", Herman and Lily clearly love her as much as they do their son, and overlook it, even trying to help her find boyfriends when they can (always with poor results, but still).
