I wish I liked Wednesday more but she's actually kind of a butt
#she's a little jerk to every single person on this show#she's Not Like Other Girls#her whole character strength is supposed to be that she doesn't care what others think but that turns out to be her flaw#which would be smart except they still celebrate it#they still act like it's Fine and Right for her to be a jerk to would-be friends or significant others or - OR -#-people who just want her to be okay? people who care about her but expect nothing from her? yeah she's awful to those people too#and her relationship with her parents sucks. especially her mother#she's just a total brat to Morticia for NO REASON except that for some reason she's obsessed with being unlike Morticia?#and the whole thing about the Addams Family is supposed to be that they're creepy and kooky and a little spooky BUT-#-they LOVE each other just like (if not more than) an ordinary suburban family would#they're a macabre play on the stereotypical suburban family of the 50s and 40s BUT the charm is that their wholesome lovingness is dialed u#dialed up to A THOUSAND for each other#and you only see that in Wednesday's show between the parents and between Wednesday and Pugsley#when canonically all four should be loving to ONE ANOTHER#anyway - wednesday's child is full of woe because you won't let her grow and change and be creepykookyspooky AND outwardly caring#she is not a relatable character unless you're comfortable in a morgue and you cried when your pet scorpion died (it's supposed to be Homer#((he's a spider)) ((not a scorpion))#(((get it RIGHT NETFLIX)))#wednesday#wednesday addams#wednesday netflix#wednesday season 2#the addams family#doverstar's thoughts#text post#opinion piece
