The Man From U.N.C.L.E, was a spy series which starred Robert Vaughn as Napoleon Solo and David McCallum as Illya Kuryakin. (Fifty years later a new generation would know McCallum as "Ducky.")
Fred Gwynne played Herman Munster and Yvonne De Carlo played Lily Munster. The Munsters were a blue collar family of friendly monsters who went about their worldly lives considering themselves to be normal. Their counterpart, The Addams Family, were much the same, only wealthy and mostly stay at home eccentrics.
Morticia (Carolyn Jones) and Gomez (John Astin) of The Addams Family
Daniel Boone debuted in 1964 and would run for six seasons. Fess Parker was a natural for the part, following up his role as Davy Crockett in the 1950's Disney productions.
