Wednesday

Description

Smart, sarcastic and a little dead inside, Wednesday Addams investigates a murder spree while making new friends — and foes.

A sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery follows Wednesday's years as a student at Nevermore Academy. She attempts to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorized the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago - all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships at Nevermore.

Personal Thoughts

No need to bury the lede, this show is brilliant. While, on paper, it has all the trappings of a teen drama, it rises above the high-school setting and young adult characters to create a flawlessly-executed dark mystery series.

It doesn't matter whether you're familiar with the Addams Family or a newcomer to one of the weirest families to grace large and small screens alike. If you love dark humor, supernatural settings, compelling drama, and all the twists and misdirects of a great mystery, you should give Wednesday a try.
