The classic 1960s television comedy The Munsters is the next property stepping up to the remake plate. NBC has ordered a pilot for a new version of the series and director Brian Singer (X-Men, Superman Returns) is going to be in charge of the project. Most cynical television fans such as myself would likely assume that Singer was tapped to helm NBC's latest experiment due to the popularity of some of his recent films but Singer was actually interested in the project before the network ever expressed interest in it. The direction for the new show has been described as "an imaginative reinvention of The Munsters as a visually spectacular one-hour drama." So the wacky hijinks of Fred, Lily, Grandpa and Eddie are going to be shoved aside in favor...
