They're creepy and they're kooky/ Mysterious and spooky/ They're all together ooky/The Addams family. If you sang along to that, Wednesday might be the show for you. Part-YA coming-of-age, part whodunit, part dark comedy, Wednesday explores what happens when Wednesday, this child of woe, goes away to a boarding school where mysterious events keep happening. It features Jenna Ortega in a pitch-perfect performance, Tim Burton being both executive producer and director, and of course... bonus Christina Ricci! We discuss the series, and whether it achieves the highs of Addams Family shows past.
