A Murder of Woes

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.

Good twists! Wednesday stays in character the whole way through. She really is an amazing actor. The action scenes are great and some are pretty complex. The sets and scenes are really well done and create a lot of interest. You can tell the spent money on them. I like that they are so many characters and test each is well developed. Bummed that some get killed.

The only criticism is the actor chosen for Gomez. Totally not a fit. He is frumpy and does not fit the part. Gomez should be debonair and striking. It really threw off the movie when he and the wonderful Morticia (Catherine nailed this part and such an add that she is in it!)

Love this series and hope they do another!!

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.

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.
