AOL named her one of the 100 Most Memorable Female TV Characters. Morticia was portrayed by Carolyn Jones in the television series of the 1960s and by Anjelica Huston in "The Addams Family" (1991) and its sequel "Addams Family Values" (1993).

A complementary comic book series was produced in connection with the show, but it lasted only three issues. The show's theme music was completely different and had no lyrics and no finger snaps, although it retained a bit of the four-note score from the live-action show.
