📺 Watched Wednesday seasons 1 and 2.

This is Wednesday as in Wednesday Addams. The creepy goth girl you’ll be familiar with if you have followed the Addams media at all, which has, astoundingly, existed since 1938 when The New Yorker published their adventures in single-panel comic form. They later debuted on the small screen in the 1960s.

Anyway, here we focus on the daughter, Wednesday, as she attends Nevermore Academy as she goes about the stresses and strains of daily life as a loner-inclined student - occasionally using her psychic visions and impressive intelligence to help solve the odd violent crime here and there.

It’s really well done. The deadpan dialogue is hilarious in places, especially between her and her roommate who has rather different emotional inclinations.

Some of the sound track is excellent too. Lady Gaga pops up in season two. And the piano rendition of The Cranberries' justly famous song “Zombie” is so good I had to rush out and procure a copy.

It’s also on the Wednesday season 2 sound track release which is available in all the usual places including Apple and Youtube - alongside a version by Bella Poarch.

I then found out I’m not very good at playing the piano. But hey, practice makes perfect, maybe.
