Can't Hollywood keep to the winning script when making new material based on beloved characters? If they don't like the original they can make their own thing, but then don't steal name and major traits from something original and great.

Wednesday should be dark, but with sparkle. This one is more mainstream brat. It was easy to see that something was truly wrong in the first episode. The casting of Pugsley and Gomez shows that this is going to be bad, really bad.....

Old series and movies were great because they had an connection with the viewers. Sometimes the materiale will not age well and therfore not fit into today's scene. Trying to reinvent it to suit today's marked while still selling it to the people who liked the original, is in most cases a loose-loose scenario. Wednesday is the latter.

If you like the Addams Family - skip Wednesday. Nothing to see here except bad casting, bad script, lack of imagination and a tv and movie industry in free fall.
