Binge TV culture has literally taken away my favorite thing about TV watching, which was speculating with a community about the direction of the show as it airs, and discussing, dissecting and interpreting the minutia of each episode in detail between airings.

Doing another Addams Family marathon.
Just the movies right now. The Addams Family (1991), Addams Family Values, Addams Family Reunion, The Addams Family (2019), and I still don't have The Addams Family 2.
I might watch the 60s sitcom and Wednesday again. I might not.
I've found Scooby-Doo Meets The Addams Family on YouTube, I just haven't watched it yet. The same goes for the musical. I found the soundtrack and a couple full recordings.
I'm also hunting down Halloween with the New Addams Family from 1977, The New Addams Family from 1998, and the cartoons from 1992 and 1973.
(Yes, there's THAT much Addams Family in the world.)
Actively searching for books/comics as well.
After this I plan on watching The Munsters Revenge because I'm in that mindset, I don't have the original series, and I don't like the Rob Zombie movie. The Little Vampire, The Witches (the original), Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, and Elvira's Haunted Hills are also on the to-do list. And maybe the Hotel Transylvania movies if I'm up for it. Not the fourth one though.
I'm a very busy lazy person with nothing to do.

I have a hypothesis that having something to watch and look forward to every week (or at least in a regular time intervals) is more significant and beneficial to people's mental health more than one could think
It's both important because of the enrichment factor, but also from the perspective of having something positive to look forward to every week at a set time, guaranteed to appear no matter of what happened in your life, the state of your mood and where are you currently in life
As well as being delivered in manageable doses, not causing overwhelm, not taking up enough time to be disorderly to your schedule
I feel it's especially important to neurodivergent people, but also being a net positive in neurotypicals as well
It's generally a comforting presence that makes us feel a little bit more in control in the face of everything else that might be going on at the while
I feel like entertainment is generally more significant to our lives than it's often regarded as
We need to unwind in a controlled way on a regular basis
#txt#fandom#binging#binge watching#streaming#binge culture#binge watching is nothing but stressful and overwhelming#it's like having to eat a whole delicious cake by yourself at once#and as fast as possible#yeah it's good but you're not going to appreciate the flavor and you might choke or feel nauseous at the end#nothing starting with 'binge' is ever going to be a healthy option#come to think everything political aside i feel people are more stressed now because even entertainment is out of our control#it's also community-building and many other factors that make the communities look barren without it now#entertainment and its role of community building and schedule setting#as well as emotional regulation

Things I have watched on Netflix whilst (really) ill and my rating of them:聽
Dungeon Meshi: 100/10 - I started watching before I was ill, its worth buying a Netflix subscription for this, its great, SungWon Cho is in it, go watch it.聽
Words Bubble up Like Soda Pop: 9/10 - A feel good, sweet film about young love in a very bright summer mood聽
Drifting Home: 10/10 - Adorable kids go on a harrowing adventure Ghibli style, beautiful animation, sweet story telling. The children do act like emotionally immature children but you鈥檇 expect that.聽I watched it twice.
Children of the Whales: 7/10 - Fun, clearly misses bits of the manga. Some characters have a fun telekinetic glowy power called 'thymia'. One of the characters really feels like the writer鈥檚 OC, which is fine, but occasionally off-putting . World building was super fun, and I really liked the character Suou.
The Orbital Children: 1/10 - I'm giving it 1 just for the fun first episode. it seemed like it would start with good world building and had cute enough animation. Don鈥檛 watch it, I sunk 6 episodes of time into it with increasing frustration. It is a complete waste of your time post the third episode. It had ant man level writing where quantum was replaced with AI, and it just got worse.聽I was ill enough that the quality didn't matter that much.
The Garden of Words: 5/10 - just for the animation, which was beautiful - it was a story about a 15 year old boy developing a crush on a depressed English teacher, and they become friends, he doesn鈥檛 know she鈥檚 a teacher. It leaves you constantly wondering if the studio is about to condone something illegal until the last five minutes. Its ending is unsatisfactory but also inoffensive.聽
Flavours of Youth: 4/10 - It's sweet, I didn't personally enjoy it that much. There was far too much narration and it felt a bit disjointed for my tastes.
Several hours Sir David Attenborough narrated animal documentaries, 10/10 - I like watching fish, and also many other animals - this was not on Netflix
I also watched a Scoobie Do Jeprody spin off thing called Scooby Do Guess Who? or something and that was strange - can't remember where this one was.
I have been so ill.

I do not consume media like a normal person.
Like i read the entire underland chronicles series in like a week (i read 2 of the books in one day, which was like 1000 pages) last year. This year I read every sherlock holmes short story + the hound of the baskervilles in under a week. (6 days to be exact, I started HOUN one Tuesday and finished the casebook on saturday). I read all the raffles short stories after 13 hours of reading straight. I listened to the entire sherlock and co podcast over the course of four days, which was 40 episodes of listening. Back in my my hero academia phase a few years ago I watched like 4 seasons of the anime in a week and a half. I watched the Encanto movie 2-4 times in one day for at least 3 days straight. I binged the entire ATLA series more than once, but I haven't watched it in a while so I don't remember anything. I'm sure there are more examples that I can't think of now. I don't know why I'm like this, but it's not hurting anyone so.... yeah? This is just one of my peculiarities. Does anyone else do this?

When was it decided that Wednesday would be the older kid? In both the 60s series and the 90s movies, she's the younger one. But then in the 2019 movie and the Netflix series, Pugsley is the young one.
On that note, how is Fester related? He's not Gomez's brother in the old show. Both Gomez and Morticia call him 'Uncle'. I googled it, and it came up that he's Morticia's uncle here. But, she makes a comment about an Addams ancestor and that blood being in Fester's veins so... is he Gomez's uncle? Who's mother is Grandmama?!
I also want to point out, just because I thought it was funny, that Wednesday doesn't have a phone in the modern versions but there's a season one episode of the old show where they have a computer in their attic. Their own computer. In 1964. It looks like a Star Trek setpiece, but that's kind of what old computers look like to be perfectly fair. And they did exaggerate it a little to be funny. The thing even has manners. Gomez does a calculation on it (he wants to know how much it would cost to go on vacation to the moon) and when it gives the number, Morticia thanks it. It replies with a page that says "You're welcome". AI in the 60s. They proceed to use the computer to bet on horse races. There's also another episode where it's stated that Pugsley is years ahead of the space race. Gomez talks about "We could land on Mars in just three years" and Morticia says that "Pugsley will be there long before then."
Wednesday has a boyfriend in one episode. Woodrow, the invisible man's son. At first, you think she's playing pretend. She is not. He trips over Gomez and then walks himself out the door.
Wednesday is traumatized by fairy tales. It comes up in the first episode, where she comes home from school crying because a knight in shining armor slayed a dragon, and then it comes up again when she runs away from home and a police officer offers to read her some stories just to keep her occupied. Her response is to tell them who she is and where she lives.
Morticia wanting to donate things to charity. She's upset that people don't see the value in their things, but refuses to just hand over junk they don't want. She actively goes around the house looking for good valuable things to give away. "We must all give till it hurts." When they give up Pugsley's favorite clock and upset him, Gomez and Morticia go into a bidding war against each other to try and get it back for him.
Lurch cries over his harpsicord when it's donated to a museum. A lot. Gomez and Fester have to make him a new one. That is only one example of how surpisingly expressive he is in this version. Another is the 'what the actual fuck is that?' Look he gives Cousin Itt the first time he shows up.
On that note, Lurch talks. Quite a bit, actually.
Gomez fights a carnivorous plant when he thinks that it ate Pugsley. He's strangling the thing screaming for his son until he pops up behind him. "Thank goodness you were indigestible!"
Gomez is incredibly horny for Morticia. It actually catches me off guard sometimes. Like when they plan to go to "Lover's Leap" and Fester asks what he'll do when they get there. Gomez tells him, "We'll make love; you leap." Or the countless times he's kissing her and either Morticia or Fester have to be like, "We have company" to try and stop him because he was in the middle of a conversation with said company before he stopped to get freaky with Morticia. Or the time when she says "C'est la vie" in conversation and Gomez excitedly screams "THAT'S FRENCH!!" I'm surprised he didn't jump her right then and there. French is his kink.
Fester is trigger happy. Every time he gets mad he pulls out a musket and shouts "I'll shoot him in the back!" And he'll repeat it multiple times until someone either calms him down or removes him from the situation.
Wednesday does ballet and tried to teach Lurch. She had a little tutu and everything. He lifts her at one point (Dirty Dancing style), and then she goes to lift him the same way and Gomez and Morticia panic. They do not go through with the second lift.
I've always wondered if the Addams Family was supposed to be Latino or not, and there are a lot of references to Gomez's Spanish ancestry in the series.

on a side note, can we talk about the wonderful pacing that the release of the season in two parts has granted us? it means we don't have to avoid all fan content until we have binged an entire season at once in what feels like the media equivalent of overeating without savouring anything and unhealthy instant gratification. no; instead, we are given the opportunity to digest everything, anticipate what happens next, speculate, and dissect details that might have otherwise been overlooked.
bridgerton is definitely not the first show that is doing this but i love this trend, i hope it sticks around

the binge wheel's almost over...
My binge wheel is ending, so there's only three things left to watch. Here's all of the other things I've watched.
Craig Before The Creek
I've watched Craig of The Creek when I was a bit younger, so that's why I decided to watch this movie. I loved each of the characters' backstories, and I also liked how it made mundane things look extraordinary.
Favorite Character: J.P.
A Utica Cartoon
This is another pilot I've watched. I think it had the same vibe as Kitty Bobo because of its desaturated color palette. I also liked how minimal the music sounded because it reminds me of a cheap synth in my house.
Favorite Characters: N/A
Welcome to Eltingville
This is the third and final pilot I had on my wheel. Unlike the others, it was a full-length episode. The main cast are the perfect example of what a fandom shouldn't be, and I liked the fast-paced slapstick, too.
Favorite Characters: Definitely not the Eltingville Club.
BONUS: INSIDE OUT 2
This movie wasn't on my wheel, but thought it would be nice to put it on here. I like how they expanded the lore and the worldbuilding. I've always loved Inside Out, so that's why I thought the sequel would work.
Favorite Characters: Embarrassment, Bloofy, and Lance Slashblade
I've also removed Straight Outta Nowhere from my wheel because I couldn't find it anywhere, too.
I'll probably make my next review list sometime later! See ya!
