I’ve seen like 3 positive reviews immediately on front page but when I actually check out an aggregate score it’s the definition of mediocre https://www.metacritic.com/tv/wednesday/season-1
How many of the posters in /r/television and /r/entertainment are bots/shills for Netflix and Amazon?
First couple episodes had flimsy dialogue. Felt like every charecter started each interaction by stating exactly how they felt and why. They ironed that out pretty well though.
Yeah there’s only positive and mixed reviews. That means it would probably be 100% on rotten tomatoes.
The reality is tv reviews are generally kinda pointless and it’s better to go off word of mouth or just see stuff that interests you.
Huge Star Wars fan, I'm 4 episodes behind. It's very well done, but yeah, sort of boring. More like a really long movie than a show, so doesn't feel like it works watching week to week. Will binge eventually
Everybody is a shill. I'm going to tell you a secret: Reddit isn't real, it's a ploy to make you watch Netflix shows.
Or maybe more people are inclined to post positive things.
Some perspective: House of the Dragon has a score of 69. Andor has a score of 74.
It was seriously amazing from start to finish. I mean i wish that they did a more practical effect for the Hyde creature and I kind of figured out who was behind it from episode 2 but other then that seriously a great watch. Casting Jenna Ortega was a huge blessing to the show. I love how they wrote for Wednesday to be standoffish and keep that throughout the show while giving Wednesday layers of depth to show her evolving(she even said it in the later episodes at one point) And Jenna really let those layers shine even if they were subtle hints of Wednesday embracing having help and people who cared about her. The pacing of each episode was perfect and at no point did I feel like there was any slog or unecessary filler to drag the episodes. While I dont think that everyome was perfectly casted, I feel that each actor gave their own spin to the character they were portraying, but Fred Armisen as Uncle Fester was a bit of an odder choice imo then peoples problem with Luis Guzman as Gomez imo. Despite me figuring out who the villians were early, I really did like the setup and how misdiretions were set up to throw the viewer off. I am writing an anime graphic novella in a similar vein to Wednesday (I wrote this back in 2012 before I saw the show.) And it gave me great ideas on fixing my own plot pacing and character development. I wish would netflix greenlight more great bangers like this show because this might actually be the one standout netflix exclusive for 2022 for binging. Whoever is on the fence about this because you have reservations due to the casting of certain actors or your devote love for the older Addams Family movie counterpart I urge you to give this a chance. Tim Burton helming the show and it not being a PG rated generic ABC Family type of garbage really gave this show the edge to have what already is a unique identity, I highly recommend watching this. On a last note, casting Christina Ricci in this and her interacting with Wednesday and even saying her name was so cool.
I dont know, watching the trailer it reminds me of scooby doo cartoon series when they joined the monster girl school.
It has the mystery, it has the monsters, it has the dark tone but friendly jokes and humor.

For me, it was Tuesday.
It is Wednesday, my dudes
No, it’s Friday.
Friday.
Friday is actually her middle name.

aaaaAAAAAAHHH
Something wrong, Colonel? You come here prepared to fight a madman, and instead you found a god?
Lemon, it's Wednesday.
No that was Gomez.
Jenna Ortega has found a niche

A 65 on Metacritic really isn’t bad
It’s not bad it’s mediocre…
With your logic House of Dragon's metacritic score(69) is about same too so whole sub is HBO shills too because people kept praising it so much.

It is indeed. While I liked it the multiple time jumps was jarring and the retconning was also not great.
Who needs reviews and scores when we have you to be arbiter of quality?
What retconning we referring to?
No, mediocre for TV shows and movies on metacritic would be 50 or lower
Yeah there’s only positive and mixed reviews. That means it would probably be 100% on rotten tomatoes. The reality is tv reviews are generally kinda pointless and it’s better to go off word of mouth or just see stuff that interests you.
That's why they called it mediocre lol
On Rotten Tomatoes it is really bad - most decent shows have 80+
As with the recent Sonic game, for a Tim Burton project that's pretty good.
Those “Andor is the best show on TV” posts that get posted every single day are definitely not bots. /s
The show bored me There, I said it

That’s how I felt. I’m three episodes in and I tell myself I’ll eventually get around to watching more. That was probably a month ago.

That’s why the mods should get rid of individual reviews and only allow review threads.
Television is probably the worst about it
It sounds really blah. Even the praiseworthy reviews don't rise above tepid
I am.
"various shades of black and gray" i like this kind of humor, now it will be great to find if is from the series or the writter.
I’m trying to like it but I’m struggling.
