Another show infected by the "agenda" and "the message". Removed from my list and stopped watching around episode 4 when the "parents" of a schoolboy appeared on screen...

Seriously, why is this receiving such high praise? Beyond Catherine Zeta-Jones, who is fantastic, the casting is a joke. The lead, Ortega, is highly overrated and a cheap Hispanic knockoff of Ricci’s Wednesday. It really feels like I’m wantedSeriously, why is this receiving such high praise? Beyond Catherine Zeta-Jones, who is fantastic, the casting is a joke. The lead, Ortega, is highly overrated and a cheap Hispanic knockoff of Ricci’s Wednesday. It really feels like I’m wanted to like her more than I actually do. I’m not being hyperbolic when I say that I’ve seen better acting in high school plays. The writing and general plot don’t save this from the acting either because they’re both steaming piles. Had high hopes, especially with all the praise and hype, but was disappointed.… Expand

Pretty bad, looks and sounds generic, half copied from Harry Potter, and especially a lot of inconsistencies that bother me. I also find the sequences when the main actress has flashes very amateur and unpleasant so much it is badly played.Pretty bad, looks and sounds generic, half copied from Harry Potter, and especially a lot of inconsistencies that bother me.

This is not an Addams family show; it plays like a campy preteen romance novel mashed together with a Tumblr-level Harry Potter fanfiction, thinly covered in an Addams family coat of paint. Woke leftist one-liners are, of course, peppered throughout the episodes. Ham-fisted "strong women" and "dumb boys & evil patriarchy" sentiment galore. Wednesday Addams adores violence, death and the macabre, yet makes a quip about how she detests the Pilgrims for "mass genocide". A perfect example of the shallow, mindless writing and how these long-loved characters have been contorted into shells of themselves in a pathetic attempt to score with the mass Hollywood consumer type.… Expand

Yes, it turns into a woke crapshow after episode 1. You get the full load: Racist bad guys, gay reeducation camps, Mary Sues, dumb males, no Asians at all, parents are bad, minors who are sexualized, same gender parents, elitist dialogue (no, not only from Wednesday - but only from females), every woke-invented and redefined term ever is used, perverted original characters and a massive amount of stereotypes out of a racist mind.

Wednesday isnt acting like Wednesday at all (except maybe in the first episode) and the Addams arent the Addams either. The plot makes no sense, and where it does its easily predicted. The dialogue is cringe and childish. Casting is atrocious (and no, not Gomez, but Fester and Lurch especially), other characters are just rehashes from other random teen shows, and so is the story and the sets (Tolkiens famous quote about evil comes to mind). Especially Harry Potter movies and Disney teen shows have been used as "template" a lot.

Now I have to watch the old series and the movies again, to get this utter garbage out of my mind.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Semplicemente indecente!! la famiglia Addams è stato un modello che andava a criticare la famiglia tipica americana in cui dietro la bella facciata si nascondevano tonnellate di ipocrisia e problemi, mentre al contrario la famiglia più tetra era quella che rappresentava la genuinità del nucleo familiare con i genitori che nonostante il matrimonio riescono sempre ad essere appassionati nel loro rapporto e i figli (mercoledì e pugsley) che nel loro essere non convenzionali rappresentano un puro rapporto tra fratello e sorella. Ecco nella serie TV tutto ciò non esiste!! il personaggio di mercoledì si discosta totalmente da qualsiasi legame con il modello originale rivelandosi solo come un personaggio generico vestito di nero. Se invece di Mercoledì si fosse chiamata Generica ragazza italiana che si veste di nero e si sente alternativa il risultato sarebbe stato esattamente lo stesso!! Contestualizzare il personaggio con il nome di un marchio famoso quale Addams divine solo un espediente di vendita che nulla ha a che fare con il modello originale. Gomez e Mortisia sono l'opposto della serie originale. Lui sembra rappresentare lo stereotipo del Messicano arrivato in America, senza il carattere che contraddistingueva il vero Gomez; Mortisia una personaggio inerte che al più sembrerebbe lo stereotipo della casalinga americana che alle 11 di mattina è al terzo bicchiere di vino. L'impronta di Tim Burton la ritengo totalmente inesistente, nulla che rimandi ad altri capolavori del regista, forse una lieve impronta solo nel design del mostro. Venendo alla trama, tra le più banali che esista, personaggi lasciati li a morire senza neanche un leggero climax, momenti salienti che si risolvono in poche manciate di minuti (da che viene evocato il villain principale alla fine della serie passano SOLO 23 MINUTI!!!). Plot twist semplicemente inesistenti o comunque molto prevedibili in anticipo, Mercoledì che dovrebbe essere il personaggio iper razionale capace di prevedere ogni mossa in stile Tommy Shelby che in realtà non capisce chi è l'artefice di tutto il piano il quale viene rivelato da un personaggio secondario in un modo assolutamente forzato. Combattimenti finali in cui lei come protagonista fa davvero poco (forse questo dovrebbe essere il modo per far capire quale è la forza dell'amicizia ma lascia il tempo che trova), e poi il capolavoro massimo di ogni serie firmata Netflix: il cliffhanger finale per farti capire che OVVIAMENTE ci sarà una stagione 2. Netflix capisco che sei una azienda e in quanto tale devi massimizzare i tuoi profitti ma magari ogni tanto prova a farlo rilasciando materiale di qualità piuttosto che tonnellate di immondizia ogni mese. Se sei ti sei divertito con i vecchi film della Famiglia Addams non guardare questa porcheria.… Expand
