E1: It was ok. Wednesday goes to Hogwarts or the School for Good and Evil or some other magical school. Jenna who plays Wednesday is working for me but the rest of the Addams are not. Thing, well, I’ve discussed that issue before. Gomez and Morticia don’t quite work for me - I do like Zeta-Jones but she’s too full faced. Morticia need to be more gaunt. No one matches Carolyn Jones. And while Guzman captures Gomez’s girth, I’ve never really cared for his work.
There’s a fencing scene in the first ep with a thousand things wrong (when is fencing going to be depicted properly in cinema?) Nevertheless it’s an amusing scene if you can get past the inaccuracies. She also does some King Fu. Something for everyone.
I’ll note that the writers are Gough & Millar - same team that did Into the Badlands. I’ve interviewed them.
Ricci’s part is kinda funny. I want to see more of her. And Christie as the principal is giving me GoT flashbacks.
I did enjoy Paint it Black on the cello.
8 eps at 45 mins each. I’m in for more.
