Wednesday

Wednesday has a very strained relationship with her mother for the first half of the series (and apparently for a while before that), full of resentment based on the belief that she wants Wednesday to be her carbon copy. Her father on the other hand she adores, even willing to compliment and commend his parenting style before her character development. It helps that they share many hobbies like dancing and fencing.

Wednesday being a gifted musician is right out of Halloween with the New Addams Family, in which she is studying the piccolo at a music academy. Unlike most adaptations, where the Addams family's shenanigans are ignored due to Rule of Funny, here they have to be at least somewhat mindful of the law. Wednesday gets accused of attempted murder for dropping piranhas in the swim pool, with the implication being that she got off light due to her family's money, and Uncle Fester has been evading prison for decades due to his various crimes.

When he arrives for the Rave'n, Tyler is seen looking at the picture of the previous fencing team while waiting for Wednesday. While it at first seems like he might have noticed Morticia, a later episode reveals that his mother, a fellow Hyde, is also in the image. Having been freshly expelled from public school, Wednesday ( Jenna Ortega) finds herself enrolled at Nevermore Academy, the alma-mater of her parents Morticia ( Catherine Zeta-Jones) and Gomez ( Luis Guzman). There, she finally finds people as strange and offbeat as her... but also a dark, decades-old mystery. Also in the cast are Emma Myers, Riki Lindhome, Jamie McShane, Percy Hynes White, Hunter Doohan, Gwendoline Christie, Fred Armisen, and Christina Ricci, who famously played Wednesday in The Addams Family and Addams Family Values. Coconut Superpowers: Ajax is a gorgon, but merely hides his snake hair under a beanie for the whole series, except for when he accidentally turns himself to stone in the shower. Obviously this allows them to not worry about the special effects animating so many snakes when not necessary. Our Werewolves Are Different: Enid and her family are hereditary werewolves without any curse involved. In fact, Enid's inability to wolf out is presented as a problem and a source for her inferiority complex. When she first introduces Wednesday to the "Furs", she only warns her about them being loud on full Moon, not dangerous, hinting that even wolfed out, werewolves in this show retain their personalities and remain fully in control of their actions. Hint confirmed when Enid does wolf out, as she immediately rushes to save Wednesday and, while fighting the Hyde, takes the time to turn to Wednesday and smile, as if to say "Look what finally happened!". Christina Ricci (left) appears in the series as a nod to her previous portrayal of the titular character, this time played by Jenna Ortega (right). [25]
