I don't think that is necessarily the case. Between the original series and its immediate followup Munster Go Home, the part of Marilyn was played by three different actresses. Bewitched replaced several key characters (Darren, Gladys Kravitz and Louise Tate) and the show ran for almost a decade. Most soaps end up recasting characters after a certain point. And I've long since forgotten how many actors have played Batman and Superman. Sure, we all have our favorites but I always like to see what a different actor will bring to the part.
Sometimes these reboots turn out very well. Sometimes they don't. Mission Impossible and Sabrina The Teenage Witch turned out very well. But stuff like Sargeant Bilko and McHales Navy were misconceived from the start.
Am I curious about the future of The Munsters project? I suppose. But at this point we don't know if it will actually make it to the air.
