drotto Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Liked the first episode, but it is going to take some adjusting to the new cast, as well as the tone shift. I love the 90's Addam Family movies, and was expecting this series to have more of that comedic feel, while this is clearly leaning more heavily into the macabre aspects. Good, just a bit different from what I was expecting. For instance, Wednesday's comebacks are just as cutting, but they seem to lack a bit of the comedic edge that Ricci brought to the role. Overall though, off to a promising start. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drotto Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Just finished episode 2, and it is good. Kinda feels like Addams Family mixed with Beetlejuice with a splash of Harry Potter. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't wait for my family to keep up. So I binged up to Episode 5. This show honors the live movies while serving as its own more serious story. Quite solid. I think I have an idea who the monster may be. But could be wrong. Spoiler The school principal or the psychiatrist. I have a feeling either is the lost sister of Garrett Gates. Which with the principal that means when he died in front of her, it makes it even more impactful.

1Cool Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) My wife and I really liked this one to the point of us finsihing it over the 4-day weekend. It was cheesy throughout but that is what made it fun. It would have been better right before Halloween, but it was a spooky, fun show to start out the Holidays.

drotto Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Finished up strong. I am in for season 2. Wednesday is perfect. I did actually figure the main plot out by the end of episode 5, for what it was worth. ADAMANTIUM and Bosco685 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastballspecial Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) I finished the season tonight. Fantastic. I think this is Tim Burton's best work in years. My only slight criticism is after many Easter Eggs in the first couple of episodes they didn't have that many toward the end. I highly recommend this for everyone.

rexinnih Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Finished it last night. Any show that can bring the Cramps into the spotlight already gets an extra star! Really enjoyed it and will wait a bit and watch again to catch things I may have missed. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PovertyRow Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 (edited) Well my Christmas gift to myself was to binge it all (including a rewatch of the pilot.) Amazing how good it is! Principal Weems kept nagging at my brain until I realized she was also Brienne of Tarth from GOT! I am not the biggest fan of arcs in a series (probably started with my love of The Twilight Zone and Outer Limits etc as a kid and later to the anthology horror/sf comics) but THIS is how to do an arc. It actually had me engrossed and awaiting for the next revelation. Just a tremendously well done show. The most fun I've had since Werewolf by Night!

eastriver400 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Just finished with the family and that was truly fun. LOVED that they used a Cramps song for Wednesday’s dance. That was great!! Bosco685 and PovertyRow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
