Wednesday Netflix (Spoilers allowed)

[MarkB]

The worldbuilding in this series left me wanting more. It's clear that this is a world in which the supernatural is known and unsurprising, and yet it still seems rare and separated from the world at large - I didn't get the impression that there were Nevermore-equivalent establishments in great profusion anywhere else.

And the distinction between "normie" and "outcast" is a little ill-defined. Wednesday comes from a family of outcasts, yet she isn't known to have any supernatural capabilities when she is sent to Nevermore - she's been having visions, but keeping them secret. If she weren't, would she still be eligible to attend?

But I enjoyed the series a lot. It had plenty of character development and intrigue, and while Wednesday's apparent detachment might seem to make her unapproachable, I could see why others came to like her, and the supporting cast was likeable too - a refreshing change after having previously tried to watch The School of Good And Evil, and given up halfway through due to it lacking even a single character I could like or root for.

The "Outcast" label would seem to be a hereditary thing. For example even if Enid hadn't been able to do as little as pop her claws she would still be welcome at Nevermore, because she's from a family of werewolves. If they continue on with the series that I think it quite likely that we'll find the world is somewhat Harry Potteresque, in that there are another few schools in various locations, around the globe.

The proposal is that season 2 will bring in more of the Addams wider family, so on that it wouldnt need to be school based at all, especially now that Weems is dead.
They have all but confirmed that Morticia and Goody Addams are ‘witches’ and that a range of supernatural outcasts live in the world, getting them intergrated with a world that doesnt like them Could be spun out into a couple of seasons
I’ve seen one season of Legacies, how did they fit that into the wider Vampire Diaries world?

The claws thing sets her apart from the normies. When's the last time you went on a date with a woman with retractable claws?

I can see Wednesday being a witch. It might be the direction they go. Sirens, vamps, gordons, werewolves, witches all have specific classes to teach them how to handle their powers.

There was an "if" in my post and the claws of the women I date aren't retractable

Indeed there is an if there. I  retract my statement.

Gordons can certainly be dangerous if not properly trained.

I didn't catch that. Now I must hang my head in shame.
