Fun fact (since you haven’t seen other Addams Family stuff): Their dorm mother/plant teacher is played by Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in the 90s movies!
You must have been born after 2002 because im sure everyone knew that from the 90s.
@@oliviaaaxxxable dont be a gate keeper its sad. You are not cool for pointing that out, stop it
@@oliviaaaxxxable I was born 1994 and didn't know that before I read that somewhere. There are many people who are not up to date with all the pop-culture knowledge.
@@oliviaaaxxxable no need to be rude.
@@MrJojux Agree. I have seen tons of TV shows since the 1960s and don't keep up with every single pop culture show
The beauty of the Addams family is that as odd as they are on the surface they’re all honestly one of the most healthy, functional families on television. It’s a beautiful juxtaposition.
they love their children in their very own way. I mean they made the surnames "viper" "my little tornado" and my "little tempest" very cute
Yeah, I read somewhere that they were concieved to be the exact opposite of the "perfect pastel polo wearing, white picket fence family".
The funny thing is - with that "opposite idea" in mind - Mortitia and Gomez are absolutely crazy about eachother, and they really care about their kids. 😅
True. The more controversial I think it is that they give Wednesday and Morticia a strained relationship ... : \
@@mappes1 They came to an understanding later and the strain healed, no? That's an example of a healthy relationship.
When you said you didn't like Tim Burton's animation style I muttered to myself "she's going to hate the monster".
I know I hated the monster. The rest of the show was fine.
the monster was soo bad. it looked awful, kinda broke the whole vibe for me
While the monster grew on me... yeah, I didn't like it either. Too fake. Too cartoonish.
It was the biggest let down in the show in my op. It looked like Gollum on stereoids... 😖
I thought the design was perfect, because I recognized what the monster was instantly.
Natalie: She is such a chameleon.
Me: insert any Knowing smile meme here.
🧐*Gwendoline* (my sister is Gwendolyn - spelling is important) is a very TALL, talented chameleon! She was also in Hunger Games. That's Lyme!
I did the same smile 😂
Fun fact about the Addams family TV show is Mortica and Gomez were the very first married couple to share a bed on international/national TV history worldwide as before them they had separate beds and sometimes separate bedrooms. Psychologists say their relationship is one of the best relationship studied as they love each other beside each other flaws and if anything it's those things that makes their love so filled with such passion, understanding an endless love.
gwendolyn christie said this is the first role she ever felt beautiful in and that breaks my heart ):
But by the same token, their costume department needs to win _all_ the awards. That late-50's/early-60's aesthetic _really_ works for Gwendolyn. She _should_ feel beautiful, because she knocks it out of the park. (Having a fashion designer for a husband certainly doesn't hurt. There are photographs of her in some stunning outfits, if you look. She really is a beautiful woman.)
Not to mention the other costumes.
@@tarmaque
Christie's costume/look was modeled after Tippi Hedron's look from The Birds.
@@mgass1354 Yes, I was aware of that.
i watched the sandman and this, she looks completely different and I love it!
@@tarmaque The show had four-time Oscar winner Coleen Atwood as their costume designer, it's no wonder she killed it.
The actress who plays Dr. Valerie Kinbott (the psychiatrist) is Riki Lindhome, who is also one half of the musical duo Garfunkel and Oates with Kate Micucci. They have some interesting songs that you might enjoy, though they are quite bawdy. Garfunkel and Oates was also a show that aired in 2014 for one season. Some notable songs include The Loophole, Weed Card, Pregnant Women are Smug, Dating a Republican, and Go-Kart Racing. By the way, while the show was filmed in Romania, Jericho is a real town in Vermont and is about 50 miles away from where I live. Also, Luis Guzman, the actor playing Gomez Addams, lives here in Vermont.
I was born in Middlebury but the family lived in New Haven, but we moved when I was one.
Just me and you and you and me, just us, and your friend Steve
Wow...awesome!
I love Riki and i love Garfunkel and Oates. one of my favorite comedy groups.
really wish they and Lonely Islands played together. would have been iconic. I hope the 2 of them contineues to make music soon, it's been too long!
I wonder of Luis Guzman loves Jericho more or Greendale more!! ;) (community reference)
Garfunkel and Oates for unfamiliar people is Kate Minucci, “Lucy” from Big Bang Theory and Riki. They did that viral song “Fuck Me In The Ass Cause I Love Jesus”
Her: It's not a phase, you should subscribe.
Me: It's an addiction.
muahahhaa it's working
@@NatalieGoldReacts are you gonna watch the last of us next
@@NatalieGoldReacts will you react to invincible and breaking bad?
“It’s how Glinda and Elphaba started!”
Yeah and that relationship turned out great!
That gave me a strong reminder of my sister lol. I feel like Natalie and my sister would be besties.
The musical, like the Wizard of Oz musical, is based on a book "Wicked" ( an adult novel, while the original Oz books were written as children's stories, though so imaginative adults love them ).
1. This show is tremendous.
2. Gwendoline Christie is an absolute deity.
3. The music in this show is necessary for life.
4. Thing is *definitely* a homunculus of some kind.
The apocalyptica cover of "Nothing else matters" in the last minutes of episode 3 made it so beautiful.
I really enjoyed this show. Not all of it worked for me, in order to avoid spoilers I'll not get into specifics, but overall it was very good. I haven't seen Ortega in much, but between her smaller role in "X" and now this show I'm definitely a fan of hers. I also really liked Enid. They did a great job of making her like Wednesday's opposite, without being annoying, and Emma Myers really made her charming and pretty adorable. The way their friendship develops was so nice. I'm pretty hyped for season 2!
While Tim certainly contributed to The Nightmare Before Christmas and I definitely don't fault the editor for mentioning it when Natalie said she wasn't a big Burton fan, it's animation should truly be credited to Henry Sellick and his team of animators :)
I love how they incorporated the iconic snap as a password to the secret entrance.
And how none of that was in the edit showing she has no clue
I binge watched this show in two days when I saw it for the first time. I love the way Jenna plays Wednesday and the twists and turns this show takes along with the mystery as well
2 days? Must be nice to a have a life. I watched in one day as I don't have a life.
@@ThePharaz I started it at a late hour is all and needed to get to bed because was getting sleepy hence two days...would have watched it in one if I started earlier.
Apparently Ortega actually did play the cello for some of these scenes, which is wildly impressive
Yeah - she learned well enough for it to look authentic, though the actual audio is recorded by a professional cellist.
The version of the song she plays is actually impossible to play solo (the first one, not vivaldi)
the character designs for the creatures are very Tim Burton-esque, and kind of reminded me of Pee Wee's big adventure (Larger Marge) Nightmare before Christmas, Bettlejuice, etc. They can be a bit jarring, but you get use to them.
“She knows how to fence. I guess her mother taught her.
That would be her father. Raul Julia was amazing as Gomez Addams in the 90s movies. Gomez had some fencing scenes in the first movie. To be fair, they all were amazing, but Raul had this mesmerizing intensity that just commanded every scene he was in.
Gomez was also an accomplished fencer in the 1960s TV show. It's kind of a family thing.
I watched the original in the mid 1960's lol First and foremost "The Addams Family" is a comedy, throughout all iterations of the shows and this one is too! I think most people should just watch and try to accept things, etc. as they're presented. Not have any preconceptions about it. A couple of my friends have their own preconceptions of Wednesday; and they don't quite care for this iteration because of them. One friend says she's not 'dark enough' and another says she's too good at everything. The problem is - that they don't really know Wednesday! With this show, you'll understand more as the episodes go by. I'm also liking it that you're liking it! :)
Gwendolyn Christie also plays an interesting part in the Sandman. And the lady who plays the therapist is half of the singing duo Garfunkel and Oates. Give them a listen to.
I loved her rendition of paint it black by The rolling Stones when she was playing her cello. You didn't put that in here but it's was a highlight for me.
And Metallica's Nothing Else Matters,
@@martinblevin5587 By a weird coincidence, I had seen this video (ruclips.net/video/mGefTNPPaoU/видео.html) by the Charismatic Voice a few days before Wednesday dropped. Hearing a cello cover of Nothing Else Matters really poked me in my happy weird spot.
You probably noticed it, but the snap that Wednesday used to get into the secret library was in homage to the tv show's theme song.
Most people today think it originated with the 1991 movie.
@@lurkerrekrul I think hard-core Addams Family fans would be wise enough to look at its origins.
I'm only aware of it because I'm older, and was exposed to the things that occurred before the movie came out.
I'm so happy everyone get to see your reaction to this show it's been fun watching your reaction on Patreon!
Always do enjoy your content, and tickled me having "Oh wow her fireplace is Medusa! That's so cool!" being followed by "Wait, what's a gorgon?" and "I didn't know he could turn himself into stone just by looking at the mirror!". That's literally the story of Medusa :D
Such a great show! Thank you for bringing us along on the journey!
Watching your reactions is so much fun and always brughtens my day when I am down.
One of my favorite things is during a shoot, Jenna happened to not blink for the shot. Tim said he loved it and asked her not to blink from then on. So while there are some blinks, I find myself starring at Jenna's eyes looking for blinks. (Not that I mind doing that) I have seen some post of the count, but it is mid 20's for the whole show.
Awesome! Glad to see you reacting to this awesome Netflix series.
So excited!!! Really been enjoying a lighter show over on patreon ❤️
0:53 shes so real for this.... yes been addicted for months and i cant stop watching old videos cause i love her reactions lol, that explains why im here in this video HAHAHA
Enid is the best! Her explosion at Ajax is too cute.
Nat” mom and dad stop “ me thinking of The original Gomez and Morticia. Those two are in love like crazy. I’ve never seen a relationship like it
Fun thing about Thing (hehe): it is the actual hand of a Romanian magician, who wore a green suit covering him head to toe, so they could remove digitally everything but the hand. And in some scenes they used a robotic Thing that could move around, grasp etc. ^^
There are actually a LOT of callbacks in the series to not only the 90s movies, but, the original tv series as well as the OG comics. Even someone old, like myself, that watched the original series didn't pick up on them all.
A LOT of people have commented on how Wednesday knows how to do everything in the series. These are callbacks. When Wednesday is fencing, Gomez in the original series would wave his sword. In the 90s movies, Gomez was a fencer. And in the series, it's mentioned that Morticia captained the fencing team. So, Wednesday would definitely be a good fencer. As for the archery, that is a callback to the 90s movies with Pugsley having the apple in his mouth and Wednesday reenacting William Tell.
But, I was waiting for Natalie to do the series given how animated she gets. I'm just surprised that the dark humor doesn't get her laughing more than it has.
Honestly I'm glad this reaction came out now. Everybody was reacting to Wednesday when it was new, it's nice to see it after a break lol
Also the fact that you didn't really know the Addams Family beforehand was a fun little change-up. Seeing you discover their family dynamic was fun to watch!
Fun show, lots of great moments, flawed plot and character development (except for Thing, that hand is awesome!) weird pacing, great ride of a visual treat and lots of one-liners to love. Looking forward to season 2!
There kinda is a patriarchy in a hive though, the male bees just chill and run a train on random queens. Sure, the queen commands the hive as a whole, but thats just one, all the worker bees are also female and they basically just gather food that the males and queen consumes.
Am I the only who thought the cat's on Nat's sweater was like perfect representation for Wednesday and Enid xD
Those are dogs though
looks like cats to me
@@ej-arsonator well they are dogs
@@danishprince2760 unless you have proof I'm going to think they're cats, thanks
@@ej-arsonator She has 2 dogs, Koda and Ridley and those are the ones depicted on the shirt lol. Continue being an ignorant fool for all I care
In the original comics there was no Thing, but there was a sign on the front gate that said "Beware the thing". Thing being a disembodied hand was invented for the sitcom.
The “I love Tyler’s 😄” made me giggle cause I’ve finished the show.
And the "she made a friend" ....well hahahaha
Excellent reaction, Natalie. I'm glad that you're enjoying this series, it continues getting better.
On a personal note, I knew that you were involved with film and TV but didn't realise that you were/are a CD, I thought that you were an actor like myself.
Its an incredible series. It has so many layers.
YEEES…i’ve been waiting patiently for this one
This is such a brilliant homage to the original movies and I’m so glad you’re loving it as much as we have Nat.
I would even say that it's a great homage to the original comic book. Because when this first came out, a lot of people had a problem with Luis Guzman playing Gomez Addams. Because they did not realize that this was a direct reference to the original comics and not to the movies or even the 1960s TV show
Me too! But I expected nothing less than a masterpiece from Tim Burton. Stories about outcasts are always the best. I´ll be binge watching season one again next weekend.🥰
Wednesday Addams. Level 9 Inquisitor.
Focus: Perception.
Mastery: Clairvoyance.
Weapon: Rapier.
Companion: Thing.
Favorite Terrain: Hallowed Ground.
Allegiance: Evermore Academy.
Actually, it was her father who taught Wednesday how to fence.
The 1991 Addams Family movie showed him doing a little of it. And it was also shown in the 1950s TV show.
The dance scene was also a callback to the TV show.
"Thing" is the sweetest character in the entire series.
I didnt realise how much of the dark humour and dry sarcasm i really love, until i saw this show. Wednesday and Enid are just amazing,, cant wait till season 2.
The Addams Family started as a series of one-panel, B/W cartoons by Charles Addams. It was then made into a B/W sitcom in 1964, which ran for two seasons. There have been cartoon series, a reunion TV movie, the two theatrical movies, a TV movie, another sitcom, and two animated movies. Plus, there's a series of videos on RUclips called Adult Wednesday Addams. They were made without permission, so the woman who made them was forced to stop.
This show is full of nods to the classic TV show. When Tyler says she's kooky and she says she prefers spooky, that's a reference to the show's theme song; "They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky, they're altogether ooky, the Addams family". That's also where the two snaps came from. When Wednesday hits the bell in the diner and Tyler asks "You rang", that's also from the TV show. When someone wanted the butler, Lurch, they would pull a rope, a loud gong would sound, shaking the whole house, Lurch would instantly appear beside them and ask "You rang?" in a deep, gravelly voice.
Since the original show was made in the 60s and CGI hadn't yet been invented, Thing would usually be shown coming out of a small box with a lid on it, to hand people things. He could also appear in the mailbox or other containers. Behind the scenes, he was played by the same actor who played Lurch. He would switch which hand he used, just to see if people would notice.
After watching the show myself and watching a bunch of other reactions, you are the 1st person to point out the poor actress in the rain without a hat and now I can't unsee it. Lol.
I noticed it on my first watch as well.
@@tarmaque the first time I watch this turn to my sister with "Look she's making my rain face. You know the why grab a hat when you can just squint your face up real tight and blink."
@@brandyanderson3522 As the Scots say, "There's no such thing as bad weather, only wrong clothes."
"She's such a chameleon" I ain't gonna say nuthin'
Haha! I didn't even think about that.
The monster is VERY Burtonesque. It's reminiscent of the Beetlejuice snake, with the huge eyes. There's a lot of that aesthetic in his animation too. It does look weird but that's Tim Burton lol.
Thank you for such a fun video!
I was waiting for this one thank you 😊
Was such an excellent series, binged it in one day and then started it again with my partner a day or so later and still enjoyed it just as much on second viewing....
Having not seen the 90s films is doing a disservice to yourself. We aren't mad, just disappointed
“Wednesday” is an excellent mixup of the Addams Family characters, Hogwarts and a young adult series. Sort of Tim Burton fanfic of the Addams Family. But the movies (the first two) are AMAZING.
Absolutely watch The Addams Family (1991) and Addams Family Values (1993). They are fantastic movies. They’re not connected to this show at all, but they’re so much fun.
Great reaction, you pointed out things that I didn’t even notice or think about before!
This show is a macabre version of Nancy Drew and it's brilliant. It's great that they casted Christina Ricci too.
20:12 She's not "irrationally good at everything." She learned from her family. 👍Enjoying your reaction.
YES YES YES YES YES im so hyped for your reaction to the series lol
If youd like another show to watch after you finish Wednesday, then i recommend Sweettooth. Its a show on Netflix that's an adaptation of a comic series. Sweettooth centers around a young boy named Gus, who is part deer. He lives alone with his father in the wilderness. The show also focuses on 2 other main couples; a woman named Aimee and her pig hybrid daughter, Wendy. And Dr. Singh and his wife Rani. The show is post-apocalyptic and there are some cool plot twists! Currently theres only 1 season, but the second one should be released sometime in the next few months. Id really love to see you cover this show!
Yay! Love your reaction, and looking forward to more! 😊
Looking forward to the rest of this series.
Fun Fact: Jenna Ortega is actually in the MCU. She played the vice president's wheelchair bound daughter in Iron Man 3, the one being treated with extremis in exchange for infi that helps them kidnap the president.
Oh, also, when first acting in Wednesday, Ortega forgot to blink in the scene, and Burton liked it so much, Wednesday doesn't blink or close her eyes in the entire show (unless something goes in her eyes, or she gets knocked out).
OC usually refers to Original Character, the usual terminology for when a Live Action Role Player (LARPer) is in character, which is technically what the Pilgrim World worker is doing.
I love the monster design in this show, it is the most Tim Burton looking monster I've ever seen in live action.
I think they took some inspiration from Beetlejuice there.
I kinda got a "Large Marge" vibe from it.
@@Cau_No I got Plants vs Zombies from it. I didn't like it's style, personally. Too cartoon-y for me.
Hyde looks goofy AF.
I really hated it, couldnt take it seriously xD
You're gonna like the series. ;)
A great mystery, great characters, dark humor and surprisingly heartfelt.
My favorite trivia for this series, Jenna Ortega does not blink, when she needed to blink she would wait for the camera to be on the other actor, that is dedication. Love her! Learning the cello, German, fencing and dedication to the character to not blink, amazing.
YEEESS IM SO EXCITED TO SEE UR REACTIONS UR UPLOADS MAKE MY DAY :D
I have never seen you so emotionally volatile. Thank you for showing your audience that true inner beauty.
first episode i instantly fell in love with the show and cant stop watching it
6:05 although Tim Burton created and wrote The Nightmare Before Christmas, it wasn't directed by him.. it was directed by Henry Selick (from Coraline).
This was such a great Series! BTW Natalie-Loved Your "Wicked" reference while watching Episode 1!
Not sure how familiar you are with classic cinema, but my favorite part of the entire series is the Archery scene. It's a great copy of the Archery scene between Lizzy and D'Arcy in Pride and Prejudice (1940) (Greer Garson / Laurence Olivier). This helped set the relationship between Wednesday and Xavier. Whomever wrote this into the script deserves more than a nod for including it.
Im so excited to rewatch it with you
I'm so obsessed with Wednesday that I've watched it 3 times and still want to watch again.
"She is such a chameleon!"
I quickly became very obsessed with show after the first episode. I am so into the mysteries and love story and everything. I'm late to watching it but omg am I in love with this show
"She's such a chameleon!" *snerks*
OMG, I just realized I wasn't subscribed until now, even though I watch your videos daily. Sometimes I even watch them on repeat because it helps me focus. Anyways you are amazing!! stay golden 💛
I’m also here to tell you it’s not a phase, she has such great viewpoint from a film standpoint. Def subscribe!
It kind of gets glossed over but the Poe short stories each team was themed after were The Black Cat, The Gold Bug, The Cask of Amontillado (jester outfits), and The Pit and the Pendulum (hence the axes)
your reactions are fun to watch!
Really fun show!!
Hello Natalie from the past, glad you're watching this show.
Not only the references to The Addams shows & movies, also Tim Burton's design choices show through.
The Monster looks a lot like Beetlejuice did in his not-so-friendly form.
The Jokers and the Black Cats on the boats - where were the bats?
Also some Sleepy Hollow and Edward Scissorhands vibes.
Funny was the line about Gwendoline Christie being a "chameleon" (7:50)- just wait for it … wait …
Loved this show
waiting for your next reaction for this series. subscribed!
can't wait for part 2
I love Bianca. I'm glad they fleshed out her character more.
I recently found old Addams Family episodes and started watching them. Like a lot of stuff from the new series has roots there; empathy with wild animals, dancing and fencing and archery lessons, oh man a bunch of Wednesday's fly dance moves can be seen in the old series lol.
I would love to see a reaction to the 90s Addams Family movies because they are PHENOMENAL & sooooo underrated 😎😎
I liked the video before even watching. I've been waiting for this one. I know your gonna enjoy it. Do the things!
For those who might not know: Nevermore, the name of the school, is a famous line from the Poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe
Most reactors don't really speak about the music of the movies or shows they react to, but i really liked that they put f*cking Paint it black AND Nothing Else Matters in this show
7:51 YEAH?! 🤣
I love the nicknames Homer gave her too! He's so creative 😤
ABOUT TIME!!
Fun Fact: my brother is a volunteer firefighter in the real Jericho VT! He has a AirBnB…told him to prepare for show tourists…
Loved the throwback intro! You! You! You! Yes, you! So happy to see you react to this. Having recently discovered your channel I figured this would tickle your fancy. Hope you enjoyed it! I never watched the Addams Family movies but watched the show and saw them on Scooby-Doo.
