When the characters were adapted for the 1964 television series, Charles Addams named Wednesday based on the Monday's Child nursery rhyme line: "Wednesday's child is full of woe". Actress and poet Joan Blake, an acquaintance of Charles Addams, offered the idea for the name.
What I find interesting is that The characters started off in a comic but unnamed. What's even more strange is that Hanna-Barbera tried to set-up a series of a similar concept but couldn't because The Addams Family hit the T.V screens in 1964.
Uncle Fester makes me think of Gru from Despicable Me 🤣🤭 Her name is Wednesday because she was named after a part in her mom’s favourite rhyme, Monday’s Child, with the line, Wednesday’s Child is full of woe
Lol I came to this video from google, I was tryna clear up the gesture he was doing, & my 7 yr old daughter was right, he was in fact snapping his fingers, 😂 Thanks!
Derived from the poem, specifically the line: "Wednesday's child is full of woe". * Also, Wednesday's holding a microwave oven and the frog's trapped inside.
It's because Wednesday's child is full of woo..In fact she is my favorite character. Especially with Christina Ricci in the 90's live action movies. Actually, my black cat I got last year on October 1st is named Wednesday.

You got this set fast! I haven't seen the animated film so I'm not sure what the frog is in, looks like a tv or an x-ray machine possibly?. Really fun set though, they actually have gimmicks! Thing is my favorite one
@@FastFoodToyReviews For me nothing will match the McDonald's Finding Nemo set from 2003. Very sentimental............I drove around to several different McD's to get all 8 for my sweet 4 year old girl.................🥰 But this BK Addams Family one is amazing for sure! My kids are all grown but this review is making me want them for myself! ha
To answer your question, she's called Wednesday because "Wednesday's child is full of woe." The Gomez toy looks pretty good, Morticia doesn't look like her, Fester is workable. Wednesday is OK, and the frog was the one she was supposed to be taking apart in class, but she pulled a Frankenstein and he's dancing. Cousin it looks good, and Thing is OK.
Not fair in uk we arnt allowed to have plastic toys in uk thanks to 2 kids who started eco campaign so now everything is cardboard the Addams family toy we get here is a snap card game.
Because "Wednesdays child is full of woe" its a poem originally published in 1838...the rhyme has changed slightly over the years but Wednesdays child has been full of woe for decades lol
Wednesday’s name is from a poem. Wednesday’s child is full of woe. The television looking set on the toy Wednesday is from the movie where Wednesday brings a frog to life, like Frankenstein
No screws to replace the batteries on Uncle Fester and Wednesday? I can predict these batteries are gonna expire in the next 5 or 8 years if Burger King didn't put screws on the 2 toys. That would have a lot terrifying 😬 (no pun intended).
Her name is Wednesday because she named After a poem : Wednesday's child is full of woe She was not born and named after the day on Wednesday she was born on Friday the 13
Wednesday refused to dissect frogs in class so she decided to bring them back from the dead "Frankenstein" style!
Burger King outclasses McDonald's with the toys this year. And btw Pugsley and Lurch not being in the set is kinda criminal
Agreed.
I agree with you I was saying here is him pugsley
Morticia doesnt look right
Mama mama is missing too
I am very surprised that they are releasing toys from a 2019 movie. These look better than the recent McDonalds toys.
And They are awesome.

This is probably the best toy set of the year
Definitely. I have this collection and it's incredible
They should of had Pugsley and Lurch also
I love the Addams Family especially Wednesday. I wish they made kids meals of the 1990s cartoon version.
I think Carl's Jr/Hardee's did back in the day
There was a set of action figures made by playmates toys back then though
@@oxleymations but sadly they didn't make Wednesday for the second wave.
@@timdakis2107
True, they also left out Thing and cousin Itt as well
This is a nice set but hopefully they make a adams family 3 so they can wrap up the series and it really needs to be a trilogy
Oh wow! These are like old school 90s-00s bk toys. Good job bk
A hundred times better than a boo bucket for halloween.
They really don’t make them like this anymore
Oh this is from this year!? I thought it was from 2019 when the first animated movie came out! Either way, kind of want now.
@@futuremovieactor it's definitely worth getting.
@@FastFoodToyReviews can you Send me Those?
@@treyhuey1871i am sure your local Burger King has. I’m in Asia and Burger King here has the same set
Honestly these toys look real fun
Im excited for these! While there's no movie to tie this in with, it still matches the season!
It's in reference to the animated film from 2019 that I didn't even know existed until he showed what is on the back of the Gomez toy! 😱😂
She reanimated dead frogs in the first movie
I love that even though the movie itself came out in 2019, the toys didn't come out until right now.
better toys than transformers one...
Uncle Fester makes me think of Gru from Despicable Me 🤣🤭
Her name is Wednesday because she was named after a part in her mom’s favourite rhyme, Monday’s Child, with the line, Wednesday’s Child is full of woe
BK should have included Pugsley and Lurch
You are right
I wish Lurch was in this set he's my favourite and he's funny (You Ring) 😔😂
This has more effort than the transformers ONE bk toys....
Lurch, Pugsley, and Grandmama is left out. I am surprised BK did a toy of Thing instead of Lurch tho. I think it'd would been better.
I Gotta Say The Adams Family Is Kinda Cool!
Where's Pugsly??! That's not fair!
I have Gomez, Morticia, Thing and It. I need to find a Burger King that has Wednesday and Fester. I love these things!
where is Pugsley
Cusin Itt is so funny and I like the Thing
Thing in orginal series had multiple boxes
Do they release all different kinds of toys at once or chronologically…?
Lol I came to this video from google, I was tryna clear up the gesture he was doing, & my 7 yr old daughter was right, he was in fact snapping his fingers, 😂 Thanks!
Fast food toy reviews! That was my childhood 😭 (look it up)
Still waiting on the Smurfs 2011 mcdonalds set

Wednesday is best character 🐸
They’re creepy and they’re kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're all together ooky
Derived from the poem, specifically the line: "Wednesday's child is full of woe".

Also, Wednesday's holding a microwave oven and the frog's trapped inside.
This feels like they needed a set for The Addams Family 2 and just re-released the set, which makes sense.
Nothing like addams family 2015 in 2024. Lol. Wednesday got her name because of the month she was born
I wish they made the toys the animated cartoon series in the 1990s
It's because Wednesday's child is full of woo..In fact she is my favorite character. Especially with Christina Ricci in the 90's live action movies. Actually, my black cat I got last year on October 1st is named Wednesday.
Does seem kinda late for them to plug the 2019 movie isn't it?
Please do a video for McDonald’s Hotwheels Battle Force 5 Fused 2011 set of 8 toys.
I Love The Addams Family Movie It's So Spooky & Awesome At The Same Time
Question. Were these toys supposed to come out in 2019 and covid messed it up or something? Just wondering. Great video btw.
These are Incredible., The Addams Family is Amazing.😃👍
Their designs are based on Charles Addams’ original drawings, which were also used in the 70s and 90s animated series.
The thing in there is a frog from the beginning of the movie at the science fair 🎉
Her name is Wednesday after that old weekday of birth poem, "Wednesday's child is full of woe"
I guess it's just called "Monday's Child"
It's been quite a long time since I've seen your videos, this brings back so many memories
Awesome set!

This line of toys is being released to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the 1964 television series premiere.
2:00 Almost looks like Gru!

I got the whole set a few days ago. It’s cool. You hear that, McDonalds?
after the line "Wednesday's child is full of woe" from the 1838 nursery rhyme Monday's Child
I think they forgot to release these toys at the time of the movie release so they just figured screw it. Why not now?
I already eat the McDonald’s Wednesday Burger Wopper food
Not fair in uk we arnt allowed to have plastic toys in uk thanks to 2 kids who started eco campaign so now everything is cardboard the Addams family toy we get here is a snap card game.
Please aswer me
Porque dice 2019 en los juguetes si salieron 2024 ???
I can't wait for you to read my Halloween card in the next Viewer Fan Mail video.
Just bought the whole set lol
But they made it the 2019 film
Her name is Wednesday, because she was named after a poem called "Wednesday's Child Is Full Of Woe ."
Because "Wednesdays child is full of woe" its a poem originally published in 1838...the rhyme has changed slightly over the years but Wednesdays child has been full of woe for decades lol
I’m waiting for hulk 2003 Burger King toys
Weird they are doing a promo from a film from 2019 could it be the pandemic and they finally got to it several years later 😂😂😂
Oh my gosh, I grew up watching this guy
The Addams Family is Awesome!
Wednesday was named after the poem which says Wednesdays child is full of woe. But she was born on Friday the 13th of October.
Wednesday’s name is from a poem. Wednesday’s child is full of woe. The television looking set on the toy Wednesday is from the movie where Wednesday brings a frog to life, like Frankenstein
Oh my goodness chill with the nail cutting
Her name is Wednesday based on a line from mortica’s favorite nursery rhyme Wednesday’s child is full of woe
Wednesday's name is based off the poem for each birthday week Wednesday being full of sadness
i love your New background and mabie i will get the complete set this year
My Favorite Toy is Cousin Itt I So Want Him
My cat loves him... And gets mad when cousin Itt stops spinning around
@@lyndsaybean5472
Oh Yeah right I see
I wonder if burger king still have the toys
I❤ this movie

How do I get my Adam’s family toys? From Burger King.
Bk missed! We needed Adam's family watches....😢
Me encanta 😍
I like all of them except UGLY Gomez and Morticia. My favorite one is Things hand coming out the grave casket.
I NEED THESE! CLASSIC
I want Wednesday, Uncle Fester and Thing
Am I going to go to every BK in my surrounding area just because I'm weirdly obsessed with Wednesday Addams and need this toy? Yes. Yes I will.
I had the Wednesday whipper today and really enjoyed it and got 2 Gomez and cousin it that’s all they had still need the other 4
This is an awesome set
Love the Mario paper
They only one I want is Uncle Fester but so far I've gotten 2 Wednesdays and 4 Things.
Joan Cusack as Debbie
Her name is Wednesday because she named After a poem : Wednesday's child is full of woe
She was not born and named after the day on Wednesday she was born on Friday the 13
Everywhere by me they only have Gomez and Itt.
I think her name is Wednesday because she was born on Wednesday 😊😊
Because she was born on Wednesday and her parents names are Wednesday😊
"Wednesday's child is full of woe."
they look cool
Puglsy: what about me
