Wednesday, Season 2
(Netflix, 2025)
A bit of hodgepodge, plot-wise, though still highly bingeable on an episode-by-episode basis. Wednesday’s dark snark is overdone—the writers enjoying themselves too much—but the bodyswap episode does at least allow Jenna Ortega (and Emma Myers) to mix it up some.
Wednesday
(Netflix, 2022)
Delightfully kooky teen coming-of-age horror/mystery series. The production values smack of feature filmmaking (iconic costume design and makeup; Tim Burton directs half the episodes). Jenna Ortega makes precocious antihero Wednesday Addams an instant favourite… even before her dance-out to ‘Goo Goo Muck’!
