A Murder of Woes

Let me be clear, I loved the series. Best from Netflix in a while. Some great writing, suspense build up for the finale was edge of the seat stuff. The quirky and witty lines for Jenna Ortega were delivered with great timing. Her portrayal of a lead protagonist will be hard to top. Also every member of star cast performed their respective roles to the best of their abilities. I especially loved the energetic Enid.

However after all the good stuff up until episode 7, the final episode was an utter disappointment. I felt it was rushed, filled with clichés, forced lines and what not. It was as if the director was changed for the last episode? Could be the pressure to set up a good finale got to the team.

Anyways I will be waiting for the season 2 because overall Wednesday has earned my respect!

Finally something decent to watch. I had hoped this show would be worth watching and I was pleasantly surprised. Not only is it worth watching, it's actually good.

The acting is solid. Jenna Ortega is excellent as Wednesday and the rest of the cast, with only a couple of exceptions, are good too. The writing is well above average compared to almost every show and movie from the past decade. There's actual character development. And of course the directing is great. Even the woke elements are speckled in naturally instead of being shoved down your throat. Also, it's an actual mystery story instead of a story filled will mystery boxes. I didn't know there were any decent writers left in the entertainment industry.

I hope the show will got what it deserve.

The show finale was action packed and was the most intense episode in the whole show they do a good job to keep you guessing until the bad guys are finally revealed. The only thing I wasn't fond of was the way the conflict was introduced for the next season and thing they could've made the hint for the stalker a bit better but the episode was amazing it wrapped everything up and contained a lot of well written scenes and the corny jokes were less on this. Overall the show was amazing and I am excited for a new season and would like to see everyone reprise their roles. Amazing show that u should watch now and can't wait for the new season.

A revengeful resurrectionist is found out and revealed, as they conjure, scheme and sacrifice to re-open long dead seals, and everything that was wrong then, and is certainly wrong today, takes form of flesh to persecute, if you present in different ways. But Wednesday Adams has a plan and help beyond the grave, to resist the clock reverting back and putting folk in graves, with friends she never thought she had or needed if we're honest, the crimes of Jericho are all solved, just as the lady promised.

A spectacular season finale that has seen some great performances throughout but none quite matching that of Jenna Ortega who was made for the role of Wednesday Adams and carries it off with perfection.

The finale delivers on action, but that's about as ambitious as it gets. After a mid-season lull, Ep 8 ramps up the confrontations and reveals, but there's little here that feels fresh or innovative.

It's a competent, crowd-pleasing wrap-up rather than a memorable crescendo. 7.5/10

Jenna Ortega remains magnetic, carrying Wednesday with her trademark deadpan flair. Pacing is brisk, and the plot ties off the main mysteries, but the visual style and storytelling don't take any bold risks.

It's entertaining enough, but a reminder that while Wednesday is fun and stylish, it's not always groundbreaking.

Waiting to start Season 2, though.
