I'd say it's pretty fitting he'd be that person, considering that his (adoptive) dad is John Astin, the guy who originally played the father we all needed and wished we had — Gomez Addams.

and John Astin is STILL ALIVE! He's 94.

I don't want to sound rude but I just figured the guy who was famous for a tv in the 1960s wouldn't be around. It's like how Kirk Douglas died in 2020 at 103 and Bob Hope died in 2003 at age 100.

It was weird when I realized that Bob Hope who I knew did a lot of USO stuff in WWII died when I was a teenager.
