A new updated Addam's Family streaming series with its primary focus on Wednesday, the now little older girl. Played by Jenna Ortega with extended cameos by Catherine Zeta-Jone and Luiz Guzman, including Christina Ricci who played Wednesday in the earlier movie versions, this updated version focuses on Wednesday's experience at a private boarding school for outcasts. Wednesdays takes elements of Buffy: The Vampire Slayer and Harry Potter and introduces an edgier fantasy drama with slices of brilliant humor. Except for the last half of the seventh and eighth and final episodes, the creative genius of balancing the mood of the series is magnificent. The only weakness is the overwhelming dark tonality of the last episodes of the series that diminishes the carefully crafted drama and lightness that shined through the series. The well developed images and mood building to the climax with the expectation of an award-winning ending seems to have been glossed over some with rough edges and less than unique ending. Overall, this fantasy series stands out for its creative and well performed characterizations. Great job.
