Comments
I would skip the first ten minutes of the video. Natalie is basically rambling incoherently about never watching The Addams Family movies and pretty much didn't even know there was a Black and white television show and a Saturday morning cartoon in the 90's. Also about how her wine doesn't look red on camera. First time I saw Jenna Ortega was in X and later Wednesday. I didn't know she was in two Scream movies before that. Natalie hasn't watched the latest Scream movies yet? Jenna dropped out of the Scream movies to focus on Wednesday. Season 2 going to be more horror.

2023-01-21 21:26:02 +0000 UTCNatalie, have you not seen the Addams Family movie from the 90s? It'll fill you in on all things Addams.

2023-01-16 20:24:06 +0000 UTCMy one complaint about this series is the awful cgi on the monster
MJ Eid
2023-01-13 07:33:17 +0000 UTCThe Addams Family movie with the late Raul Julia as Gómez and Angelica Houston as Morticia is still to me the best version and overall casting of the family. Not that it's necessary to watch that prior to this show, but I would still recommend just because of the great cast and performances and to have just a bit more context on Wednesday and her background. Also seeing Christina Ricci as an even younger version of Wednesday is just funny and adorable especially with her being on this show now so many years later.

2023-01-11 18:35:22 +0000 UTCI didn't know Alex reacted to shows!! Thanks for the info omg I'm gonna go watch him rn
Kate
2023-01-11 03:11:27 +0000 UTCI'm sad daredevil didn't win the poll, but I'm currently watching Alex Hefner watch daredevil so this all works out beautifully. I can watch two of my favorite reactors simultaneously.

2023-01-11 02:53:02 +0000 UTCI wish just once Tim Burton would make a monster in his live action stuff that was actually "realistic", as in didn't look like they escaped from Nightmare Before Christmas. I had the same problem with Beetlejuice, the cartoon monsters kept taking me out of the action.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-10 20:55:17 +0000 UTCNot gonna lie, I had planned to skip this show entirely because I am generally tired of Hollywood (or insert applicable location if it wasn't filmed there) regurgitating the same IP's over and over again. (I was fine with the initial Addams Family movies after the TV show, but they've tried other iterations since and just... meh.) The Addams Family has been done to death, some versions better than others, and I also thought I was tired of Tim Burton, so this whole idea was a big "pass" for me. BUT.... ...you decided to watch it, and you have a knack for coming at a lot of this with perspectives I'd never have on my own, so I thought "Eh, why not." And I'm glad I did, because I genuinely loved this first episode. Though I am with you on that extremely Burtonesque werewolf, it took me out of the episode for a second. It's not even that I took issue with the style, so much as it just didn't FIT the scene. It had a weird "Roger Rabbit" like juxtaposition. Like, if the whole show was peppered with cartoony moments like that, it'd be one thing. (Like if the piranhas had been cartoony piranhas, for example. But they weren't.) It felt like an indulgence that didn't help the show necessarily. But that's literally the only qualm I had with any of it. Sidenote, the fencing was, I think, a callback to the show and movies, as her father Gomez frequently would fence people just for fun.

Misty Crom
2023-01-10 01:16:40 +0000 UTCYes, it was way better than I expected too. Ended up watching the whole series in four days, which is really quick for me.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-09 20:02:35 +0000 UTCI wasn't all that enthused about this show when it first came out, Tim Burton is pretty hit or miss for me. More miss than hit, to be honest. But having seen some pretty positive reviews from sources I trust, I decided to give it a shot. I'm two episodes in at this point and while I'll likely never be all "OMG this is the best thing ever!", I do find it pretty enjoyable.
Patrick Egan
2023-01-09 19:14:33 +0000 UTCI'm sorry but she didn't mess up. They're separate adaptations. It's not at all like watching Endgame before Iron Man, for example.
Eddie Green
2023-01-09 17:12:39 +0000 UTCThe other choice would have been to wait 9 days and drop it on Friday the 13th
Ed Green
2023-01-09 09:58:20 +0000 UTCyou're
Eddie Green
2023-01-09 09:56:53 +0000 UTCI didn't know Ricci had played Wednesday either. I'd never watched a second of Addams Family content before this show. Still enjoyed it though. Not a requirement to know the history.
Eddie Green
2023-01-09 09:56:40 +0000 UTCNo, I certainly am not. And proud of it.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-08 17:31:44 +0000 UTCbet your fun at parties
Nic Benham
2023-01-08 11:24:18 +0000 UTCI get that but I was just pointing out who CR plays in this show. The original post was somewhat strangely worded.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-08 00:27:29 +0000 UTCThey were saying Nat isn't familiar with Ricci's version of Wednesday not the she is Wednesday in this show.
Jack Burton
2023-01-07 13:58:57 +0000 UTCOkay?
Richard Maurer
2023-01-07 01:29:14 +0000 UTCWas Wednesday. Now she's Thornhill.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-07 01:28:54 +0000 UTCI'm against this
Vince Ledezma
2023-01-07 01:15:36 +0000 UTCShe doesn't even know Christina Ricci s Wednesday!!!!
Vince Ledezma
2023-01-07 01:15:23 +0000 UTCOMG you need to first watch the original 90s movies before you see this I'm sorry but you messed up. Or at least don't go back to watch 90s version after this
Vince Ledezma
2023-01-07 01:14:10 +0000 UTCjenna ortega shines as wednesday addams!! so excited for the rest. also agree with you on the monster, it's a super jarring choice for sure

Boomcity
2023-01-05 15:39:34 +0000 UTCTim Burton's monsters are never scary, unfortunately.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-05 15:21:53 +0000 UTCThe actresses name who plays Brienne is Gwendoline Christie, just to cover all the bases.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-05 15:19:11 +0000 UTCOne thing that's always bothered me about Tim Burton's stuff is his monsters always look too cartoony.
Richard Maurer
2023-01-05 13:34:25 +0000 UTCI agree the monster looks very weird, but I think that's more a Tim Burton influence than bad CGI LOL

2023-01-05 07:31:31 +0000 UTCI love Riki! Even if she does look like Sid from Ice Age!

Keith Jacobsen
2023-01-05 05:26:58 +0000 UTCYou gotta have more than 1 episode a week for this or I will die from the anticipation and waiting xD
FatLittleButterfly
2023-01-05 03:38:25 +0000 UTCYou've watched the shrek movies?
devin flynn
2023-01-05 03:21:28 +0000 UTCYeah. When I saw it I immediately accepted it as being a typical Tim Burton monster so I was generally fine with it, however It certainly did take me out of the show a little bit, only because each time the monster pops up I can't help but think "Oh yeah, that's right. I'm watching Tim Burton" instead of being invested in the plot. Is it a bad thing? Probably not? I think it helps the show keep its whimsical nature and I really don't need some horrifyingly realistic monster for such a silly series. I don't mind it! I think the CGI is just a little kooky
Anomaly
2023-01-05 02:35:58 +0000 UTCFun fact: monster look is a signature of the Director: Tim Burton. Throwback to his early animation work, Beetlejuice and Nightmare Before Christmas
Alan Felicia
2023-01-05 01:30:21 +0000 UTCI hate when that happens lol
Kozmo
2023-01-05 01:19:00 +0000 UTCJenna learned to play a couple of songs on the cello for this show. She outdid herself for this role.
Sean
2023-01-04 23:57:50 +0000 UTC“The monster didn’t look realistic”
Bryan Bryan
2023-01-04 23:54:41 +0000 UTCBit disappointed she watched the season preview. I preferred it if she went in blind.
Rime Pendragon
2023-01-04 23:46:23 +0000 UTCI'm glad to see Riki Lindhome in this. One of the few things that always disappoints me about Knives Out is how little she's actually in it.
G. T. Blackwell
2023-01-04 23:38:40 +0000 UTCAccording to Jenna's interview she had to learn fencing and to play the chello although they had a stunt double for the fencing part. Also if you didn't know she was the VP's daughter in Iron Man 3
Jayson Phillips
2023-01-04 23:30:05 +0000 UTCEnjoyed watching your reaction to Wednesday Natalie! Yeah, you're a bit late to the show on this one but it's all good. I'll enjoy watching you catch up with this one. :)
Logan Kerlee
2023-01-04 23:17:30 +0000 UTCI'm about 50/50 on the show, coming down on the side of liking it. There's so many parts that I think the creators missed the mark, but the performances, especially of Jenna Ortega and Emma Myers, really won me over.
Kevin Mowery
2023-01-04 21:56:16 +0000 UTCHe already own it. The show was made by MGM studios which is owned by Amazon. Netflix is just hosting the first season, we'll see what happens next.
Myles Away
2023-01-04 21:30:48 +0000 UTCI've been waiting to watch this so I could watch it along with you, love it so far!!! SO glad this won the poll!
Jamie A-H
2023-01-04 21:02:30 +0000 UTCAbsolutely loving this. It makes sense why Jeff Bezos wants to buy this show.
Walter Lopez
2023-01-04 20:55:15 +0000 UTCI would recommend that you watch the Addams Family movies from the 90s. They are pretty good. Also Christopher Lloyd plays Uncle Fester in them so another bonus since I know you liked him in Back To the Future.
Mario Serra
2023-01-04 20:55:01 +0000 UTCI knew you’d love it! Haha! 😆
Shanice W.
2023-01-04 20:54:40 +0000 UTCI really did enjoy the show so I'm interested in seeing your reaction to this Jenna ortega did learn how to play the cello for the show but what is heard in the show isn't what she played, the arrangement for the cello there is a bit too complicated for a lot of people :P also a little tip most red wine really should be room temperature and not cooled unless it says so on the bottle and then I redact my statement.

The style and sound on this show is superb and that spider web window looks amazing 🙌 looking forward to the next episode already

David Olden
2023-01-04 18:31:05 +0000 UTCTalked the wife and daughter into watching the first episode together even though they kind of gave a 'meh' to the idea. Two days later they had binged the series before I could even watch episode 2, lol.
Steve J
2023-01-04 17:57:53 +0000 UTCI really liked this show. I know it gets compared to CW, but I never watched a CW show, so, it's all good to me.

2023-01-04 17:32:20 +0000 UTCI've heard good things and bad things. Guess I'm gonna find out.
Joe Blankenship
2023-01-04 17:17:42 +0000 UTCOh it was trending while you filmed it but it literally exploded, 6 weeks on its only just recently lost the number one spot on netflix top 10, its currently 2. And only the 3rd show in Netflix history to be viewed over 1 billion hours. 1.27 billion actually, Second only to Stranger Things 4 for English language shows.
Joshua Russler
2023-01-04 17:06:53 +0000 UTCHappy "Wednesday" Wednesday, Natalie! 😊 As a fan of the "Adams Family" movies, I was really looking forward to this show. I think that I watched all 10 episodes in just two days. This will be a second time re-watch for me. Definitely looking forward to watching this first episode reaction later this evening. Have a great day today! 😊 Stay Golden! 💛

2023-01-04 16:02:48 +0000 UTCYay, Happy Wednesday Wednesday Nat 😊 Been holding off watching this show so that I can watch along with you. Looking forward to seeing it. Your kooky intro today was so perfect and so fun Nat 😄 This show was brilliant and I can't wait to see the rest of the season. It's great that we've got Thing along for the ride too 🖐 Thanks for an awesome reaction today Nat. It was so cool 💛
