Here We Woe Again

Jenna Ortegas portrayal of Wednesday remains a 10/10. Every scene with Wednesday tends to be fantastic. The problem is the supporting cast. Joy Sunday's acting was quite bad in season one, both the character Bianca and her portrayal of her was cringeworthy and skippable. She's back for more cringe in season 2, and now Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley is added to the mix. I thought he was great in season 1, but now his acting seems uncomfortable and forced, and it's making me uncomfortable too. The story seems alright, but significantly less happened than episode 1 in season 1, and the action seems more spontaneous rather than built out like season 1.

Jenna Ortega is perfect for the role! She makes the best Wednesday Adamms! Her co stars help give her character depth. This season they seem to have found their rhythm and bring their characters to life. I hope this show has many more seasons to come. I am hooked! The writers are genius as well! The very best show out there.

Season 2 starts with a good premise and the some interesting character variation.

The successful formula of Wednesday's humorous interaction with others alongside an unfolding mystery looks to be replicated. This can work if the mystery is good and the characters continue to entertain. So far I am relatively hooked into finding out what will happen. Wednesday's relationship with Enid was one of the strongest aspects of the first season so what happens here is reasonably compelling.

Seeing more of the Addams family is interesting approach considering it is a Wednesday show. I like the inclusion of Pugsley at Nevermore and the additional screen time allotted to Morticia. Hopefully the writers have plenty of good material for these characters.

Steve Buscemi is a worthwhile addition to the cast. His introduction is good and hopefully the material he has is consistent.

Visually it's another Tim Burton feast that mixes gothic beauty with the macabre. The scene with the Scalper and creepy dolls sets the tone perfectly.

An amazing, scary and perfect first episode of the next season. Perfectly connecting to the first season. It is very fun and entertaining episode. Tim Burton really did well with this one, amazing directing and the Skull Tree story had amazing animation; classic Tim Burton. It is a little bit darker than the last season, which I like.

While watching I have the feeling the script and dialogue was written by someone with not much experience. The lines often seem unrealistic. Yes, Wednesday has its own dark style, but at least in previous season this looked real, in this new season it just seems fake and it does not take you away in its world. After watching the first episode, I don't feel curious to see what happened next and this was definitely not the case for season one.
