  Hey guys. For some reason, this video was automatically posted with the comments off, I don&apos;t know why. I&apos;m really sorry about that.<br>UPDATE: Apparently the video wasn&apos;t posted with the comments off, the comments just turned off by themselves for no reason a few minutes later. Still no idea why.

  Gwendolyn Christie&apos;s character should not have been killed off.<br><br>I haven&apos;t even got good reasons for it, I just wanted more of her

  The scene of Thing almost dying is so much more powerful thanks to Jenna&apos;s acting. It&apos;s established prior that Wednesday hasn&apos;t cried since she was six, it&apos;s the scene she shows most emotion in the entire show

  When Tyler asks if Thing is Wednesday’s pet and he FLIPS HIM OFF was what sold me on the show. Thing was the unsung hero of this show!

  Tyler going from “I’m THE nice guy, but also maybe the tortured manipulated monster” to “lol i actually enjoy killing” was a part of the conclusion that I didn’t need. He didn’t need to be a psycho.

  For love interests, I wish that instead of a triangle, Wednesday got a reliable friend who the audience can tell likes her but doesn&apos;t act on it because he feels like his feelings would just bother her. It&apos;d be nice to develop their chemistry and history until Wednesday becomes more understanding/aware of other people&apos;s emotions.

  Wednesday exceeded my expectations. it was actually really good and no one would’ve played Wednesday better than Jenna Ortega

  As a &quot;die-hard Addams family fan&quot; The show was objectively good, I loved Jenna Ortega as Wednesday. However, in an effort to make the show a more relatable teenage drama, they try to create an element of the classic teenage-parent rift that completely misses the point of the Addams family. The original sitcom was created to poke fun at other 50s sitcoms which were riddled with unhappy families, and here was a Weird Goth family that was - actually the picture of a functional family. It would&apos;ve been a lot more interesting to see Wednesday surrounded by teenagers complaining about their parents and for her to stand out because she actually has a great family life, despite being the goth girl.

  The one thing that I will say with Enid (who I actually really like, lol) is that she really grounds the reality that these are still high schoolers. She is a little cringey, and dorky, and all around just awkward, but that baseline clashes with the moments where she is genuine and more or less mature. It still is very much Enid, like when she explained how she was trying to be Wednesday&apos;s friend, but you also get the sense that she&apos;ll grow into herself a little bit more.<br><br>I think the key is that she&apos;s a direct foil to Wednesday. Wednesday, even with all her faults, is quite mature for her age. The way she expresses herself doesn&apos;t come across as a 16 year old/sophomore or whatever, but she is. Enid is 100% a 16 year old. Lol. And a puppy at heart. And most definitely a kpop fan, has a pinterest, and peruses Wattpad on the regular.

  I really liked Enid like she was very bubbly and sweet but she didn&apos;t let Wednesday walk all over her also Tyler had the weirdest 180 with his character in end like when he was talking to Wednesday in the police station was a little odd

  I think part of the reason for the love interests being so boring is just that that have no substance and we&apos;re not really given reason to care about them. The writers basically took two conventionally attractive boys, slapped some daddy issues on them, and forced them into the plot. It took me until the 6th episode to be able to remember either of their names.
