This still-shot comes from the inspired, short, legendary TV series:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Addams_Family_(1964_TV_series)

Now, if I tried to talk about The Addams Family here, then we'd be here all day, and much of that time would frankly be down to me bumbling around for words and specific episodes I half-remembered.

But actually, the whole franchise started with Charles Addams' deliciously, lovingly-morbid Addams Family comic art & strip series. You're in LUCK though if you were looking for that kind of thing, because one of our comics-sharing historians here has you covered!

That would be my mate @nocturne@slrpnk.net, who's taking the time to scan and upload his books / material to help create a comprehensive, major picture of the classic Addams cartoons.

That goodness is shared at this sub (altho there are maybe other places I don't know about):

The script for the Barry Sonnenfeld movies (with Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston) specified that Gomez and Morticia were "demonically horny" for one another. The same aside made clear that they constantly think about fucking, and do, and that if the movie did not reflect this then the writers would walk.

Unfortunately I can't find the exact full text because search engines are garbage now.

    It also specifies that it is a joke created by the writer of the Tweet.

    Yeah, that's why I chose the Twitter link. Sorry, should have clarified that in my comment.

    I found the script image alone elsewhere, but having worked on some stage productions I thought it must have been a joke or something
