Smart, sarcastic and a little dead inside, Wednesday Addams investigates a murder spree while making new friends - and foes - at Nevermore Academy.

@@Raja.2001 No, I saw it all. He only attacked her because he was being influenced by his master who hated her. She wasn’t mad that he lied to her, she was mad because she was tricked and lost. She doesn’t care that he is a serial killer, since she comes from a family with quite a few of them and murder isn’t taboo or bad, and has nearly killed people herself and enjoys her victim’s fear too. She never cared that the hyde was killing people but was more fascinated by it and when no one believed her that it was real, she became obsessed with providing its existence and that she was right, not for justice. When it attacked Eugene, she wanted revenge by exposing it, not justice. They are the same brand of sadistic, manipulative sociopaths and perfect for each other.

does she have an extensive dance background? Sure looks that way. Flawless moves

[@rocketguardian2001]

This is an absolute work of art. At 0.53 she does a version of the watusi that the original Wednesday Addams did on the TV show, and some of her arm movements earlier on are also from the same routine. She also does some of her father's tango moves. Not only did Ortega come up with moves that are 100 percent in character, she also did her feckin' homework so it's not just new stuff, it's a slight homage to the original. Big brain acting.

[@climax050]

This show is such incredible proof of what acting can be done without saying a word. And even without facial expressions a lot of the time, this show works because it lets you imagine rather easily what Wednesday is thinking, it doesn't have to tell you or beat you over the head with it, you can tell when she wants to strangle someone or when she wants to roll her eyes even though she never does either. Ortega really did an incredible job portraying an awesome character. Show is being rightly praised and Wednesday was right.... the suspense is killing me.... Edit: I have a theory that this dance scene is the one having so much of a lasting impact on people is because its just like "Wednesday in one scene". And basically is a giant recap of what makes her great, its familiar and awesome but also sort of weird and out there, just like Wednesday herself.

[@kylejohnson6070]

And the new cosplay for OnlyFans was born!

[@ShotgunRaider88]

You're maybe half right. There is a lot of narration during those "no dialogue" scenes you're thinking of. The show definitely over explains many details. We get a lot of internal monologues in this show because Wednesday doesn't verbalise her thoughts often.

So many little iconic tips of the hat packed into one minute of dance. I'm impressed by her transitions from one to another, linear to vertical movements, mechanical to flowing, changing pace and mood with playful and horror tones, while maintaining really steady and intense eye acting. Resetting her position by dropping back into the 'Wednesday walk' and then flipping back into the dance is hilarious, just for that little moment of awkwardness. But the best thing is the contrast with EVERY OTHER STUDENT. Look at the rest of the students dance in the background. Wednesday is BY FAR the most animated and fun thing at the party, which is in direct contrast to what you'd expect of Wednesday, yet all that fun is nods to Goth and horror dances. Fantastically thought out and executed. Kudos to Jenna and the team.
