"An energetic monster of a boy... blond red hair, popped blue eyes and a dedicated troublemaker, in other words the kid next door... genius in his own way, he makes toy guillotines, full-size racks, threatens to poison his sister, can turn himself into a Mr. Hyde with an ordinary chemical set... his voice is hoarse... is sometimes allowed an occasional cigar"
-Charles Addams

Pugsley Uno Addams is a member of The Addams Family created by cartoonist Charles Addams.

Biography[]

Pugsley was first portrayed as the oldest child of Morticia and Gomez Addams, but later was shown to be younger than Wednesday. Originally unnamed (as were all of the family members), the character who was apparently the prototype for Pugsley first appeared in the Charles Addams cartoons in The New Yorker during the 1930s. In the television series, Pugsley usually eats over five pieces of cake at birthday parties.

When the characters were given names for the television series The Addams Family, he was originally going to be called "Pubert" (a derivation of the word puberty, possibly a reflection of his age), but it was rejected as it sounded too sexual, and the name Pugsley was chosen instead. The name Pubert was later used when Gomez and Morticia have a baby in the film Addams Family Values.

Description[]

He is a pre-teen boy who is almost always seen wearing a striped T-shirt and long shorts. In most adaptations, he is overweight.

Personality[]

In this first incarnation, he was portrayed as a deviant child with a vicious nature, shown committing deplorable acts with his sister Wednesday, sharing the same dark personality and being fascinated with death. In most adaptations of the character, Pugsley had an unusual hobby of stealing road signs, which he used to adorn the walls and door of his bedroom. He states to know nothing about girls, except using kitchen utensils on them.
