    Why the airbrushed faces?

    I love love love Tim Burton. But I cannot for the life of me understand why the direction is to airbrush the life out of their faces. Jenna Ortega and Catherine ZJ's blurry cheeks is super distracting for me. It might just be me but I prefer texture in people's face.

    And they did Thandie dirty by not covering her five o'clock shadow moustache.

    The drop off is spectacular

    The first season of Wednesday was fresh and fun. Ortega is great as Wednesday and the rest of the cast was for the most part spot on.

    Then came Season Two and the magic is definitely missing. Episode Three was a completely unnecessary distraction to what was already a slow moving season. The camping trip was....well what was the point? Others have aptly described it as filler. I won't even make it to episode 4 and the rest of the season? Meh, best of luck. A real shame, it was a fun show for one season.

    Silly

    The whole boy scout thing was out of touch with the show. Since when boy scouts are trained like the military with a highly insulting "commander" and all the "sir yes sir"s?

    "I've been training this for the last 365 days" the scout master says. For what? A 2 day glamping trip in a fancy camp?

    Waw I feel the show has ran out of creative content.

    Catherine Z and Guzman are still incredibly miscast. They have zero chemistry I don't believe they crave each other for a minute.

    It's not the addams family anymore, it's just a random family with a walking hand.

    What happened?

    This totally became a parody of itself and dont deliver any depth and horror elements promised from Jenna Ortega herself. Its starting to look like a child sitcom with a murdering serial killer plotline that dont follow threw. The characters dont act like they did in season one, specially the Addams Family they are all out of character and comedic lines stupid conversations and terrible acting.

    The amount of joy I had watching season one left a really bad taste after the downfall of this season, why are the writers trying so hard to do a 12 year old gen z comedy with scene after scene beying more ridiculous and goofy???

    Disrespectful towards the history of the characters and the fans who really were looking to a horror Wednesday mystery and more serious tone and less romantic and childish elements.

    A silly filler episode.

    The previous two episodes had included an involving mystery and were very interesting with some unexpected twists but this episode struck out for me. This was silly and goofy and introduces useless characters in that have no importance to the story. This one really confused me after watching the first two. It kind of felt like the creators had a minimum episode requirement to hit as only 5-7 minutes of this episode are really important. Did it seriously have to be an hour long? The important parts are serious and interesting but it's ruined by the goofiness of the rest of the plot for this episode. This epsiode is a real low for Wednesday.
