Let’s Talk About Wednesday (and a little something extra) 👀
If you haven’t seen the show, this is your spoiler alert.
I know that I’m late to the game when it comes to Wednesday (the Netflix who-done-it series about Wednesday Addams navigating high school). For those who haven’t watched it yet, I recommend. It was fun, spooky (in a light kind of way), and yet very endearing. It didn’t make me ponder the meaning of life but I did thoroughly enjoy it, and I don’t like scary cinema so that’s saying a lot. There was/is a decent amount of chatter online about the series and, while much as been discussed, here’s a few things that I haven’t seen anyone talk about on my FYP:
DID YOU PEEP THE DARK-SKINNED BLACK COUPLE?!
The way I got so excited when I saw Lucas and Bianca were clearly into each other! I’m so used to writers on contemporary shows avoiding having two Black people together romantically, especially if they are dark-skinned, so this was a breath of fresh air. I hope that they become an official couple in season two (yes, I’m manifesting a season 2). Also, I loved how many dimensions they gave Bianca. She was a queen bee I could get behind in the show from beginning to end. Plus, when they brought in her mother, the siren head of an MLM?! Flawless. Beautifully messy. 5 stars on Yelp PLUS a review. I am here for it.
Is Wednesday autistic?
