The Munsters: Herman the Great (1964)
Season 1, Episode 8
Herman, the Munster heel.
13 December 2008
In order to raise some extra cash to go towards Eddie's college fund, Herman takes a second job—as a professional wrestler nicknamed The Masked Marvel. With only Grandpa aware of the hulking fighter's true identity, the rest of the Munster family cheer for Herman's opponents, all of whom abuse his kind nature to win their bout.

Herman The Great features the usual plethora of ghoulish puns, a few silly wrestling matches with Herman throwing each fight after hearing sob stories from his opposition, and a fun finale which sees The Masked Marvel becoming a hero after removing his hood to warn spectators of a fire in the arena: when the shocked crowd clock Herman's frightful fizzog, they clear the room in record time! In short, it's not an absolutely unmissable Munster episode, but it passes the time quite nicely.
