The Addams Family/ Ted LURCH Cassidy: July 31, 1932 – January 16, 1979
Today would have been Ted Cassidy’s birthday. Ted was probably known to most people for his role as LURCH on the classic 1960’s TV comedy THE ADDAMS FAMILY- which is now a favorite among present day GOTHS. Ted Cassidy as LURCH is the tall figure in the upper right hand corner of the picture. Ted Cassidy also appeared on the original STAR TREK TV series and was the voice you heard during the introduction to THE INCREDIBLE HULK TV series. He was also a great recording artist. RIP TED CASSIDY
The Addams family was a great show. The whole cast was just perfect.

The original Addams Family did have a great cast -so did the Munsters -I still have not been able to decide which show I like better.

That makes me want to find him in a Star Trek episode and listen to the old Hulk intro again

If I’m remembering right, he (technically his arm) also played Thing on the show (when they were both in the scene I think a producer would fill in).
