I think because visions are tied to emotions they are inherently unreliable. Because Wednesday is so unemotional her visions are incredibly clear and accurate.
By the same token, Wednesday being so obviously bad at dealing with emotions makes it hard for her to deal with, and accurately interpret, her visions. It's a definite Catch 22.
I think that visions and prophecies might be dangerous because they can easily mislead you. The vision caused Wednesday to follow Rowan and be in danger to be killed, so IF the monster actually killed him to save Wednesday, the vision basically caused his death. Which would make it dangerous. Look at the prophecy about Oedipus. Prophecy was, that if his father would have a son with Iocaste, the son would kill the father. Not sure if marrying mother was part of that, but it was enough to make the father try to get rid of Oedipus. But it didn't work, Oedipus came back completely unaware and killed his father. Without the prophecy, it most probably wouldn't have happened.
@@arklytte interesting point, I’d say the visions are probably accurate majority of the time. I wouldn’t say that Wednesday is “emotionless” I’d just consider her extremely good at controlling her emotions. Stronger control of emotions = Stronger accuracy in visions
@@ry4nFritz That's why I said she was 'obviously bad at dealing with emotions'. She shows emotion many times through the series, but any time she does, she then immediately gets VERY uncomfortable and either deflects, changes the topic, or leaves. And no, I would disagree that she's good at controlling them. Just looking at her reactions to Tylar, Xander, and Enid anytime things get the least bit emotional, she obviously struggles to deal with how she's feeling...thus the deflection/leaving/etc. To be fair, she's a teenager, and NO teen is any good at dealing well with their emotions, especially with all the hormones raging through their systems. As Wednesday gets older, and more mature, she'll gain more experience with and *genuine* control over her emotions, which will almost certainly, as you said, lead to stronger accuracy and power in her visions. That's my 🪙🪙, anyway.😀

Enids love interest is a gorgon (Medusa was a gorgon). Unlike Medusa, his ability is only temporary (hence why Enid wasn't worried about "getting stoned"). Also, that is the group called "stoners" by Enid during the tour.
"Bag over my head for optimal disorientation. Wrists tied tight enough to cut off circulation. And no idea whether I'm going to live or die. It's definitely my kind of party." "Mine too." Me: Wait a minute, which part?!
Jenna is great but i find I'm loving Enid. I think her soul is so kind, my heart broke when her date no-showed. I always look forward to your reactions, specifically on Wednesday, it seems most people reacting to Wednesday are newbies, I look forward to your professional viewpoints.
Episode 3 is my favourite episode of the series. One big reason is the ending scene with Apocalypticas version of Nothing else matters playing. It's just a genius music choice.
Wednesday took that cosplay to the next level lol and it looks like she has psychomentry which is the psychic ability to see the history of a object you touch
hahah that and not blinking during takes. ;P Apparently she said she was nervous shooting a scene cos Burton was there...and while she thought she did bad; he liked it and asked her to keep doing it. By the end of a season, I think I counted a total of like 20 blinks. of those most were things like her hair got into her eyes or something.
@@Daremo6969 Yeah that's cool I don't think I've seen a more dedicated younger actress than her I mean she had to learn how to walk like Wednesday and take cello and fencing lessons and even learn hand to hand combat so there's barely any stunt doubles
2:06 When Tyler's dad commented "you better not be talking crap about me" (or words to that effect) regarding Tyler's therapy sessions, I just took it as Tyler's dad snarking and generally being cynical / averse towards therapy and/or psychology as a whole, rather than literally thinking that was what Tyler was mainly talking about in therapy. I interpreted it this way based on his unwillingness to attend sessions with Tyler.
It's not at all weird in my experience. Most dads I grew up with were drafted and came back with very definite ideas about the uselessness of all therapists.
I figured it was him just not wanting Tyler to talk about him in the sort of "Don't talk back to me" abusive way, like "You are not allowed to say anything negative about me to anyone..." not so subtle threat of punishment if it was found out to be the case. The typical overcontrolling type of Dad who would rather threaten you with physical or emotional punishment if you don't stop 'behavior' and doesn't actually care about helping you by figuring out the 'why', you know, those 'tough love' dickwads
I think you’ll be pleased with how the show addresses some of the things you’ve brought up… such as why it was necessary for Enid to think she got “stood up”. I’m actually on my second watch through of the show. Many of the small issues I had didn’t bother me at all the second time around. Now I’m even more excited for season 2. The show was easily one of the more pleasant surprises of the year. It still stands as my second favorite show of 2022. Not sure anything could top the unexpected masterpiece that was season one of ANDOR.
I think that you are highly intelligent and suitably verbal. Then again I am now 74 and my opinions are not that significantly unique. Suffice it to say I am really impressed by your ability to express yourself,....I detect a College background,...yes or no? You are also very attractive physically, at least the parts that I am allowed to view due to the limitations of having a reactions channel. Fear not,..I am not nor have I ever been a stalker. I wouldn't mind to be able to claim you as my fifth daughter, however.😅❤. I'm also impressed by Wednesday repartee, when she is in the responsive Mood. I also agree with you and everyone else that Enid is such a delightful character to liven up the situation, when she is involved in a scene. pilgrim world is quite an original idea for an educational/entertainment venue. The Gorgon, Ajax is a nice but clueless love interest for Enid. At least the parts where he ends up stoning someone are only temporary instead of permanent, like Medusa. The characters in this series are three dimensional and quite memorable, each in their own right and proportional to their places in the plot line. Regardless of everything else I am happy to observe your reactions to the Wednesday series.❤
it went from rain to sun like that because that is literally how it goes on the east coast. sometimes it just rains snows hails and conjures up a tornado all in a day...
Love your reaction as usual. A long history of “Burning Times” and “Salam witch trials” this episode explores…. a passionate subject for me. Enid had really grown on me after I first watched this episode. I love werewolves and watching her rip into that bus was cathartic. 😊 Blessed be Angela
I love how you caught the " You Rang? " moment, I have watched a lot of reactions to each of the episodes for this series and out of each reaction for this episode you are the first one that I have seen that noticed it, when Tyler said it you giggled and then you mentioned it later. And the jump scare when the Monster peeked through the hole in the fence, I was watching you knowing it was coming up and oh boy did you jump. ( I used to scare people all the time when I was younger and I love a good jump scare ). Yours was genuine. Love your reaction as always. See you in your next reaction. But you won't see me cause I'm Invisible ... ( Bwa ha ha ha ha ).
I loved the use of POV camera work in that scene between Wednesday and Weems! I suspect that Burton has been using it this whole time but it was really noticeable in that scene.
Wait... was the whole bit about girl scouts and eating them a reference to the Addams Family movies in the 90s ? There was a scene about girl scout cookies, with Wednesday asking whether or not they were made out of real girl scouts.
Ajax descends from the Gorgon sisters (Medusa and two others whose names I don't remember.) Medusa was cursed by the Greek Gods. So, his ancestor is either Medusa herself or one of her sisters.
Stheno and Euryale were the other two, who were immortal. Medusa was cursed to turn those who look upon her into stone for having sex in Athena's temple. The fact that this because Poseidon raped her (in most version of the tale) apparently didn't matter much to Athena. Blame the victim. Real classy, Athena.
I love the part where Wednesday says Eugene reminds her of her brother and how much she wants to strangle him. To the average person that could sound harsh. But when you know her you realize that's actually one of the sweetest and most endearing things she can say.
That is a great part. I believe her line is “. . . Sans the desire to strangle him every waking moment.” Still, endearing for W, but not quite the same as Pugsley. Only Pugsley drives that desire every waking moment. 😂
The show does a good job of keeping you guessing and keeping it fun even though there is only a handful of suspects. Just gives you plausible reason for all of them to be guilty and you have to wait to see which one plays out.
The track at the end of the episode was by Apocalyptica! There is an album of original music on Spotify, and I think there's an official playlist with all the non-original stuff too!
24:38 1) his name is Xavier. 2) His Father is Famous. 3) His Father is Psychic. 4) his Father is a "Master". Who does THAT remind you of? [hint] Bet his Father's name is Charles.
I’ve watched this series and had it on for background noise 90+ days in a row and I would always ALWAYS notice something new. Little details and minor dialogue that seems so insignificant but is more important than you’d think. This series was filmed so wonderfully and I’m beyond thrilled for the next season. And the soundtrack is ABSOLUTELY available, I have it myself.
The songs you've heard her play (pretend-play, since the actress couldn't learn to master those exact melodies in a limited amount of time so she basically plays other tunes with different recording over it) on the cello were: - "Don't Stop" by Fleetwood Mac, which the entire band is playing; - "Winter" from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons", which she starts playing solo once the explosion has gone off. Earlier in the show she did "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones.
There is an official spotify playlist with the soundtrack. That awesome cover of Nothing else Matters is by Apocalyptica. They may not be very well known on the US. They're from Finland and started out covering Metallica and other Hard Rock/Metal songs with 4 Cellos. This distorted Cello makes for an awesome sound imo!!
If I were friends with Wednesday Addams, I would definitely hang out with her because she is cool and unique in her own way as a person and I would probably hang out with her brother Pugsley because he is very fun to hang out with as well, This episode to me as very enjoyable as Jenna Ortega definitely always brings her preformance, Fantastic, cool reaction to episode 3 Angela.
Hello neighbor just found your channel cause I luv this show I luv your intake on the show and dont u love it like I do that your questions have more questions and were left stumped and the need to want more. I like that u wait til the end to speak on the show instead of taking a pause and 5 minutes of speaking what u think of the scene while watcbing it.
The soundtrack is available on Apple music. It's the score, none of the cello covers. (Most likely licensing issues) If you want Metallica Cello Covers, look into Apocalyptica. ;-) edit: It appears that some of the cello covers from the show are on Spotify.
There is a nudie bar up in Duluth (Minnesota not Georgia) where the have these dioramas built in to the walls with little taxidermy chipmunks doing stuff like playing pool, playing cards, bellying up to the bar, etc. They are freaking adorable! Been there twice - once for a friend's bachelor party and the other for Sunday jazz brunch.
I don't think Goody is native, at least not to the area they inhabit. She says they were here before the pilgrims, living in harmony with nature and the native folk. Also, anytime a man explains to something woman isn't mansplaining. Xavier grew up with a psychic father, who obviously talked to him about it a fair bit. Note that he recognized her as psychic. She on the other hand has never had anyone teach her and has admitted she doesn't understand how it works. Finally I watched this as a "nothing better on" thing, but it turned out far, far better than I expected. In short, you ain't seen nothin' yet. Jenna Ortega is brilliant.
Gorgons are from Greek myth, with serpent hair (but also snake bodies?) Medusa is one of the gorgons. I think they are generally women, but in a supernatural setting it’s pretty sensible to interpret this as in the show
The actual mythology of the gorgons is quite interesting, especially with the change in the mythology that happened in the early Middle Ages. A lot of Greek myth is actually quasi-historical and the Medusa myth in particular has strong historical antecedents. Originally the gorgons seem to come from two different Greek myths (and in two versions of the primary one). The best known is that of the three sisters (Medusa/Gorgo[s], Euryale ["Far Traveller"], and Stheno ["Strength"]), mostly taken as either ancient Cthonic (underworld) beings with snakes for hair (serpents often being associated with the ancient Cthonic dieties). In the common form Perseus slew Medusa (who was the only mortal one), and used her head to save Andromeda from the sea monster Cetus. However the Perseus myth is also heavily associated with the so-called African Gorgon (called Catoblepas by medieval scholars), which in reality is probably a wildebeest (according to Herodotus' description). Hence the association with Gorgos, in Egypt. Another common variant of the first myth is that Medusa was cursed with snake hair by having sex in Athena's temple. Most modern mythologers note that Medusa's head only gained potency when it was detached from her body, and therefore probably also represented a cult object - a mask (Gorgoneion) that could be worn - heavily associated with the classic idea of the Triple Goddess, in particular when associated with the Marsalan cult of Roman witches (also with a heavy serpent motif). Many Renaissance buildings in Italy feature an engraved Gorgoneion as a warding symbol, especially as there was a shift in the representation of Medusa to being a great beauty.
Another Fun Reaction Video! Thanks Angela for...um..."Napalming" us in a GOOD way! And trust Me, You're gonna have MORE questions with every Episode! See You for Episode 4!
Yes there is a 4 track soundtrack available on Amazon. "Wednesday (Original Series Soundtrack)" . More an EP, because it has the instrumental of "Paint It Black" from Episode 1, the marching band mauling Fleetwood Mac, Vivaldi's "Seasons" piece and one other piece. It disappointing because it does not have other intrumentals like Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" in today's episode and SPOILERS. We take what we can get. EDIT: Just found out there is a "complete" sountrack on Spotify with 48 tracks! Looking to see if it can be purchased.
For what it's worth, if you liked the cello piece in this episode, it's by a Metallica cover band (at least a lot of what they do is Metallica) called Apocalyptica ruclips.net/video/mjvGjUovxPU/видео.html
Hi Angela!🙂Great thorough intro/outro and reactions as always for episode three!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽At this point I suspected the sheriff, Tyler, Xavier, and Kinbott. I thought Principle Weems was too obvious. I don't think they would have showed her shapeshift if she was involved. The sheriff was one of the first characters introduced, and he was covering up the cause of a murder. Tyler and Xavier seem to both have a thing for Wednesday, so this triangle seems suspicious. I have the Addams Family theme song on the CD "Television's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1: From the 50s and 60s", but it looks like it may be out of print as it is going for $50 on Amazon. It contains 65 theme songs. Merry Christmas, Angela!!!🎄🎄🎅🏽🎅🏽🎁🎁
I didn't see any in a quick scan of comments but this episode is where lots of people guess and can't resist revealing who the monster is so just be conscious of it. But like its also not the worse thing in the world because you second guess and there is a left turn that happens.
Loved your reaction to this episode! The only thing I find disturbing about this one is that one pilgrim kid who keeps attacking Wednesday (the one she put in the stocks). He's the same one who threw the first punch at her in the first episode. He seems WAY too comfortable with the idea of physically assaulting a female. Why Wednesday in therapy and he isn't?
Enid is a precious rainbow 😃 Wednesday is her shadow / mirror.... and Wednesday should carry bobby pins or a full set of lock picks!... I have the soundtrack in my Google music library the 48 track version...
When I saw Tyler in the bathtub, I thought he was trying to end himself but failed to do so. Also, Wednesday playing the cello while the statue burns was a pretty badass scene. ❤
I started watching you today because of the "wendnesday" and i love your coments and theoris, and how you are passioned for the Addams family. I have beem whatched your 2 previusly videos, just now, hope for a third, and here i am. I loved that your reactions were similar to mine and your references to hogwarts school!! I love Addams Family too, and i Loved Jenna Ortega for this Role, she is sutch a good actress, and i hope for a 2, 3 temps for this show e for her big success. i'm obsessed for this show and whatching everything about it. i watch it all in one day and i rewatched it all with my sister. - from Brasil
Ajax is a Gorgon. Likely descended from Medusa or one of her Ancient Greek sisters with the snakey, stone making locks. I wonder if he uses Snake and Shoulders shampoo?
My favorite part of the show is actually Enid because I think that to play Wednesday is much easier than to play a human version of golden retriever :) At least for me it definitely would be :-D The second favorite part is the music score for this show. First Paint it black on cello and now Apocalyptica's Nothing else matters. And we are not done yet :)
Love watching your reactions. This show is really my jam too. The Metallica cover of Nothing Else Matters is by a group called Apocalyptica. I have the album sowhere on CD still.
Ajax is a Gorgon like Madusa was in the myths hence the snakes instead of hair and turning to stone. Crackstone scares me so very much and you will understand how it all comes together in the last episode. It's interesting that Goody looks like Wednesday but that might just be because Wednesday is having the visions so her mind makes her look like that I dk. I am looking forward to seeing your reaction to the other episodes as specially episode 4 with the dance party.
Quick little story when I was 8 back in 68 I was playing in the gutter when it started to rain, I looked up and realized it was not raining on the other side of the street, so I crossed the street unfortunately several minutes later it started raining on the other side. Still remember it like it was yesterday.
You wanted to know about Crackstone and you got it; appropriately for a “great man of history”, he was a vile person but a product of the environment and time he was born into at the same time. Equally appropriate is Wednesday destroying his statue as many have done to monuments for history’s overrated criminals against humanity… while dramatically playing the cello. Glorious. Although I also love her passive-aggressively putting people off by speaking in German, so she wasn’t breaking any rules but still achieving her goal of getting them to not accept anything… magnificent. Meanwhile Weems (who isn’t Roman’s mother purely because she’s a shapeshifter not a seer) continues to be a fantastic character. And even as Wednesday learns more she’s continually stumped by a combination of obstacles both external AND internal… including the principle and her clashing.We shall see how this plays out. Why do we not suspect Enid? Because she’s too true to herself, at least on the surface, even calling out her roomie and others when they push her too far… but IS she truly that, ohoho? We shall see, eventually.
You do need your own copy because of copyright law. Essentially you can just put whatever you’re watching in the corner where I usually have the clips of the show and just watch the entire thing.
I love the the song Wednesday chose to play was Vavaldi's movement 1 "winter". Why would a Gorghan have mirrors in their home at all?, or their boarding school room?
We men, do not get hints...... at all.... ever...... You know the hand-stick-wave thing that directs aircrafts into hangars.... Yeah, thats what we need.
I knew i recognize that creepy antique lady its Sophia Nomvete (only knew her from another prime video series) also i think wednesday found a new pugsley with eugene
I love the string version of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica at the end of the episode. It's so awesome! Love the reactions. Keep it up . Thanks for making great content .
Late to the party, but two things: 1. The bath tub scene with Tyler is because he’s muffling his screams, like screaming into a pillow. It’s not an uncommon tactic for people with depression since it’s more effective at muffling the noise. 2. The Addams are originally Mexican in this universe.
00:00 - 00:20 I am very much *not* binge-watching this. I *decided* to watch 1 ep each Wednesday *on purpose* and *IT IS* killing me because everyone,most of the reactors included,is binge-watching and I already caught a lot of spoilers and I have to wait to watch _several_ videos because I know or I guess they're not spoilers free!X-SSS 00:21 - 00:28 *EXACTLY!* People these days binge watch everything in 1 or 2 days and then they spent a whole year complaining:"Where is S2?!When does S2 come out?!😫"WELL,if you didn't BURN the whole 1st season in 1 shot you would have to wait LESS before the 2nd arrives!! 01:02 - 01:13 Well,if that isn't the biggest fear of any mystery story fan ever!!😂 01:19 - 01:22 Oh! I was wondering who that was!😅Totally forgot her name!And I keep calling Weems"Brienne"and Thornhill"Wednesday"because it's easier!;-D 03:48 - 03:56 See,that's the thing about the monster!Even knowing who it is(because I've been spoiled!X-/)I still fail to see its motives.Because it's defending Wednesday and he's attacking BOTH normies and outcasts so it can't be some racist motives BUT he's also attacking...I can't say it yet because it's a spoiler from the next ep...let's just see it was someone else that didn't make sense for me to be attacked by someone who is behaving like this monster!😵Of course there's the possibility the monster can't reason while it's transformed and just attacks randomly,but if that's the case,why never attacking Wednesday and even appearing to _defend_ her?!?I'm so confused!!@.@ _Unless_ it's"controlled"by someone who WANTS to attack some specific people but also WANTS to preserve Wednesday for some reason?!?😱So like the monster was _specifically ordered_ to not harm Wednesday and to keep her alive?🤔 08:56 - 09:05 No,we don't(at least so far..I've watched 4 ep..gonna watch N°5 tomorrow)!😢I was so disappointed the 1st time I've seen the opening because it wasn't a cover of the classical theme song,but,since it's Danny Elfman and it's super-cool anyway 😎,I then got disappointed by the fact we only had the full opening *FOR 1 EPISODE* and each time I watch an ep I put the full opening on myself,because I DESERVE IT!!>^
It feels to me like most other seer's visions aren't reliable in universe. Such as what weem's says about Morticia's visions and Xavier says about his father's. Also we have rowan's mother. So I think that Wednesday's visions are an exception to the rule. I'm guessing other seer's have visions that they must interpret in order to know the future, which is why they would be unreliable. but hers aren't like that, she just sees a moment in time from either the past or future so she's both a postcog and a precog. We'll have to see if they show us someone else's visions to know for sure. But given how good she is at everything I'm guessing this is the case with her visions too. Then again Xavier says visions only show you one perspective. So i get how it's easy to miss understand. So if you have a vision of someone looking at a dead body and holding a gun it's easy to jump to the conclusion that they shot the person when in reality they stumbled upon the seen and don't have anything to do with it. So maybe that what they mean.
My only technical gripe with the episode was the homeless guy's camera. I also a photographer and have a few of those and they are from the early 80s and there is no way for it to trigger multiple shots like that by itself. As a side note I find alot of them in strange little antique shops just like the one in the show. :) At least they didn't do the whole film camera sound effect with a digital camera that alot of shows and movies do. Guess some of the sound design libraries haven't been updated since the 80s or 90s. Kind of weird to watch a show where someone has a brand new DSLR and you hear a film advance motor buzzing away.
I think because visions are tied to emotions they are inherently unreliable. Because Wednesday is so unemotional her visions are incredibly clear and accurate.
By the same token, Wednesday being so obviously bad at dealing with emotions makes it hard for her to deal with, and accurately interpret, her visions.
It's a definite Catch 22.
I think that visions and prophecies might be dangerous because they can easily mislead you.
The vision caused Wednesday to follow Rowan and be in danger to be killed, so IF the monster actually killed him to save Wednesday, the vision basically caused his death. Which would make it dangerous.
Look at the prophecy about Oedipus. Prophecy was, that if his father would have a son with Iocaste, the son would kill the father. Not sure if marrying mother was part of that, but it was enough to make the father try to get rid of Oedipus. But it didn't work, Oedipus came back completely unaware and killed his father.

Snap, that is nice!
The only thing I wish is that she'd played something Fleetwood Mac while it burned
Good catch
Goodie isnt native American she says the have been living in harmony with nature and its people, they are spanish (spain) pilgrims/immigrants
I think Wednesday is doing the classic teen rebellion of trying to convince herself she's nothing like her mother while totally becoming her. :-)
"Bag over my head for optimal disorientation. Wrists tied tight enough to cut off circulation. And no idea whether I'm going to live or die. It's definitely my kind of party."

Nothing wrong with a little light bondage.
All of it, I would think

Her performance was FIRE! 🤣

Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤

“If he breaks your heart, I’ll nail gun his”
I wish I’d had a Wednesday growing up
Did you notice Enid now has a braid in her hair ala Wednesday? The friendship grows.
Awwww no I didn’t!!! That’s adorable
Episode 3 is my favourite episode of the series. One big reason is the ending scene with Apocalypticas version of Nothing else matters playing. It's just a genius music choice.
I'd love to hear more Apocalyptica in future seasons. Some of their other songs also would fit perfectly.
I love the snark in the "Can you believe it".

The characters in this series are three dimensional and quite memorable, each in their own right and proportional to their places in the plot line. Regardless of everything else I am happy to observe your reactions to the Wednesday series.❤
it went from rain to sun like that because that is literally how it goes on the east coast. sometimes it just rains snows hails and conjures up a tornado all in a day...
Thanks for the content. Your laughter is probably the best thing that I've heard on RUclips. Contagious asf. Keep up the good work 🌹
Love your reaction as usual.
A long history of “Burning Times” and “Salam witch trials” this episode explores…. a passionate subject for me.
Enid had really grown on me after I first watched this episode. I love werewolves and watching her rip into that bus was cathartic. 😊
Blessed be Angela
You know Joseph Crackstone is a special kind of evil when even Wednesday Addams fears him
I love how you caught the " You Rang? " moment, I have watched a lot of reactions to each of the episodes for this series and out of each reaction for this episode you are the first one that I have seen that noticed it, when Tyler said it you giggled and then you mentioned it later.
And the jump scare when the Monster peeked through the hole in the fence, I was watching you knowing it was coming up and oh boy did you jump. ( I used to scare people all the time when I was younger and I love a good jump scare ). Yours was genuine.
Love your reaction as always. See you in your next reaction. But you won't see me cause I'm Invisible ... ( Bwa ha ha ha ha ).
The best jump I've seen to that scene is NickFlix's!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
It maybe a low blow but the truth and possibly he said it meaning well.
Goody Addams claimed that they had been living in harmony with the natives untill Crackstone and his people showed up. So she wasn't native herself.
The woman she called her mother looked native. To me at least.
More questions and more,,, non-answers. LMAO, I like your description of some of these "problems" or "questions". Keep the Posts coming, please.
I loved the use of POV camera work in that scene between Wednesday and Weems! I suspect that Burton has been using it this whole time but it was really noticeable in that scene.
I believe the group that does it for the show is called Apocalyptica. 🎶🙃
Wait... was the whole bit about girl scouts and eating them a reference to the Addams Family movies in the 90s ? There was a scene about girl scout cookies, with Wednesday asking whether or not they were made out of real girl scouts.
🎯
Ajax descends from the Gorgon sisters (Medusa and two others whose names I don't remember.) Medusa was cursed by the Greek Gods. So, his ancestor is either Medusa herself or one of her sisters.
Stheno and Euryale were the other two, who were immortal. Medusa was cursed to turn those who look upon her into stone for having sex in Athena's temple. The fact that this because Poseidon raped her (in most version of the tale) apparently didn't matter much to Athena. Blame the victim. Real classy, Athena.
The theme song was mentioned when someone calls Wednesday, "kooky" and she replies, "I prefer spooky."
I love the part where Wednesday says Eugene reminds her of her brother and how much she wants to strangle him. To the average person that could sound harsh. But when you know her you realize that's actually one of the sweetest and most endearing things she can say.
That is a great part. I believe her line is “. . . Sans the desire to strangle him every waking moment.” Still, endearing for W, but not quite the same as Pugsley. Only Pugsley drives that desire every waking moment. 😂
Man I love the cello numbers. Choice of songs is just outta the damn park
The show does a good job of keeping you guessing and keeping it fun even though there is only a handful of suspects. Just gives you plausible reason for all of them to be guilty and you have to wait to see which one plays out.
The track at the end of the episode was by Apocalyptica! There is an album of original music on Spotify, and I think there's an official playlist with all the non-original stuff too!
24:38 1) his name is Xavier. 2) His Father is Famous. 3) His Father is Psychic. 4) his Father is a "Master". Who does THAT remind you of? [hint] Bet his Father's name is Charles.
I’ve watched this series and had it on for background noise 90+ days in a row and I would always ALWAYS notice something new. Little details and minor dialogue that seems so insignificant but is more important than you’d think. This series was filmed so wonderfully and I’m beyond thrilled for the next season.
And the soundtrack is ABSOLUTELY available, I have it myself.
The song she plays during the burning of the crackstone statue is entitled Winter
Your picture on the walling straight. Drives me crazy. Lol
You kind of hear it a the fair when Tyler calls her cooky and then she says I would rather be known as spooky from the TV series.
The songs you've heard her play (pretend-play, since the actress couldn't learn to master those exact melodies in a limited amount of time so she basically plays other tunes with different recording over it) on the cello were:
- "Don't Stop" by Fleetwood Mac, which the entire band is playing;
- "Winter" from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons", which she starts playing solo once the explosion has gone off.
Earlier in the show she did "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones.
23:20 Bahahahahahahaaaaa, what's wrong lilgal, Booglieyes get ya!
There is an official spotify playlist with the soundtrack. That awesome cover of Nothing else Matters is by Apocalyptica. They may not be very well known on the US. They're from Finland and started out covering Metallica and other Hard Rock/Metal songs with 4 Cellos. This distorted Cello makes for an awesome sound imo!!
If I were friends with Wednesday Addams, I would definitely hang out with her because she is cool and unique in her own way as a person and I would probably hang out with her brother Pugsley because he is very fun to hang out with as well, This episode to me as very enjoyable as Jenna Ortega definitely always brings her preformance, Fantastic, cool reaction to episode 3 Angela.
Mausoleum was the term you were looking for.
My brain got stuck 😂
"Get hit by rocks".🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The word dense came up in a word search while she was trying to get him to ask her out
Hello neighbor just found your channel cause I luv this show I luv your intake on the show and dont u love it like I do that your questions have more questions and were left stumped and the need to want more. I like that u wait til the end to speak on the show instead of taking a pause and 5 minutes of speaking what u think of the scene while watcbing it.
Wow love how much you get excited over Wednesday. First time watching your covers and really enjoyed it. Going to see what else you've covered.
The soundtrack is available on Apple music. It's the score, none of the cello covers. (Most likely licensing issues) If you want Metallica Cello Covers, look into Apocalyptica. ;-)
edit: It appears that some of the cello covers from the show are on Spotify.
Nicholas Yee has a "Paint It Black" cover up.
Apocalyptica are four heavy metal cellist and they have a whole album of Metalica covers. They also have some fun music videos too.
It is available on iTunes ♥️ i have been living on it for weeks now… absolutely loving it.
Amazon music also has all the Cello pieces available.
There is a nudie bar up in Duluth (Minnesota not Georgia) where the have these dioramas built in to the walls with little taxidermy chipmunks doing stuff like playing pool, playing cards, bellying up to the bar, etc.
They are freaking adorable!
Been there twice - once for a friend's bachelor party and the other for Sunday jazz brunch.
Weird and awesome at the same time 😂
I don't think Goody is native, at least not to the area they inhabit. She says they were here before the pilgrims, living in harmony with nature and the native folk.
Also, anytime a man explains to something woman isn't mansplaining. Xavier grew up with a psychic father, who obviously talked to him about it a fair bit. Note that he recognized her as psychic. She on the other hand has never had anyone teach her and has admitted she doesn't understand how it works.
Finally I watched this as a "nothing better on" thing, but it turned out far, far better than I expected. In short, you ain't seen nothin' yet. Jenna Ortega is brilliant.
Gorgons are from Greek myth, with serpent hair (but also snake bodies?)
Medusa is one of the gorgons. I think they are generally women, but in a supernatural setting it’s pretty sensible to interpret this as in the show
The actual mythology of the gorgons is quite interesting, especially with the change in the mythology that happened in the early Middle Ages. A lot of Greek myth is actually quasi-historical and the Medusa myth in particular has strong historical antecedents. Originally the gorgons seem to come from two different Greek myths (and in two versions of the primary one). The best known is that of the three sisters (Medusa/Gorgo[s], Euryale ["Far Traveller"], and Stheno ["Strength"]), mostly taken as either ancient Cthonic (underworld) beings with snakes for hair (serpents often being associated with the ancient Cthonic dieties). In the common form Perseus slew Medusa (who was the only mortal one), and used her head to save Andromeda from the sea monster Cetus. However the Perseus myth is also heavily associated with the so-called African Gorgon (called Catoblepas by medieval scholars), which in reality is probably a wildebeest (according to Herodotus' description). Hence the association with Gorgos, in Egypt. Another common variant of the first myth is that Medusa was cursed with snake hair by having sex in Athena's temple.
Most modern mythologers note that Medusa's head only gained potency when it was detached from her body, and therefore probably also represented a cult object - a mask (Gorgoneion) that could be worn - heavily associated with the classic idea of the Triple Goddess, in particular when associated with the Marsalan cult of Roman witches (also with a heavy serpent motif). Many Renaissance buildings in Italy feature an engraved Gorgoneion as a warding symbol, especially as there was a shift in the representation of Medusa to being a great beauty.
Another Fun Reaction Video! Thanks Angela for...um..."Napalming" us in a GOOD way! And trust Me, You're gonna have MORE questions with every Episode! See You for Episode 4!
Lol I didn’t notice the rain happening at one spot but sunny at the festival.
It's the best show I've watched this year.
Let’s go, I’m off work sick it’s 02.08am can’t sleep thank you for posting right now lol
Yes there is a 4 track soundtrack available on Amazon. "Wednesday (Original Series Soundtrack)" . More an EP, because it has the instrumental of "Paint It Black" from Episode 1, the marching band mauling Fleetwood Mac, Vivaldi's "Seasons" piece and one other piece. It disappointing because it does not have other intrumentals like Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" in today's episode and SPOILERS. We take what we can get.
EDIT: Just found out there is a "complete" sountrack on Spotify with 48 tracks! Looking to see if it can be purchased.
For what it's worth, if you liked the cello piece in this episode, it's by a Metallica cover band (at least a lot of what they do is Metallica) called Apocalyptica ruclips.net/video/mjvGjUovxPU/видео.html
The 48 track version is also on Google music
Brand new to your channel, but I just binge watched the first three episodes of your Wednesday reaction and I'm enjoying it immensely. :)
I never get tired of watching wednesday even its only tuesday or any day plus you do reactions on it, its epic!!!
“Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.”
110% relevant with our elected officials.
Hi Angela!🙂Great thorough intro/outro and reactions as always for episode three!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽At this point I suspected the sheriff, Tyler, Xavier, and Kinbott. I thought Principle Weems was too obvious. I don't think they would have showed her shapeshift if she was involved. The sheriff was one of the first characters introduced, and he was covering up the cause of a murder. Tyler and Xavier seem to both have a thing for Wednesday, so this triangle seems suspicious. I have the Addams Family theme song on the CD "Television's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1: From the 50s and 60s", but it looks like it may be out of print as it is going for $50 on Amazon. It contains 65 theme songs. Merry Christmas, Angela!!!🎄🎄🎅🏽🎅🏽🎁🎁
I didn't see any in a quick scan of comments but this episode is where lots of people guess and can't resist revealing who the monster is so just be conscious of it. But like its also not the worse thing in the world because you second guess and there is a left turn that happens.
33:40 Gomez Addams is Hispanic. Morticia's ancestry is not known.
Loved your reaction to this episode! The only thing I find disturbing about this one is that one pilgrim kid who keeps attacking Wednesday (the one she put in the stocks). He's the same one who threw the first punch at her in the first episode. He seems WAY too comfortable with the idea of physically assaulting a female. Why Wednesday in therapy and he isn't?
He's also dumb as hell. She wiped the floor with all three of them and he takes her on by himself?
Enid is a precious rainbow 😃 Wednesday is her shadow / mirror.... and Wednesday should carry bobby pins or a full set of lock picks!... I have the soundtrack in my Google music library the 48 track version...
I enjoyed hearing nothing else matters at the end of this episode
23:20 you arent the only one who got scared (also love this series about wednesday)
When I saw Tyler in the bathtub, I thought he was trying to end himself but failed to do so. Also, Wednesday playing the cello while the statue burns was a pretty badass scene. ❤
I started watching you today because of the "wendnesday" and i love your coments and theoris, and how you are passioned for the Addams family. I have beem whatched your 2 previusly videos, just now, hope for a third, and here i am. I loved that your reactions were similar to mine and your references to hogwarts school!!
I love Addams Family too, and i Loved Jenna Ortega for this Role, she is sutch a good actress, and i hope for a 2, 3 temps for this show e for her big success.
i'm obsessed for this show and whatching everything about it. i watch it all in one day and i rewatched it all with my sister.
- from Brasil
Ajax is a Gorgon. Likely descended from Medusa or one of her Ancient Greek sisters with the snakey, stone making locks. I wonder if he uses Snake and Shoulders shampoo?
My favorite part of the show is actually Enid because I think that to play Wednesday is much easier than to play a human version of golden retriever :) At least for me it definitely would be :-D The second favorite part is the music score for this show. First Paint it black on cello and now Apocalyptica's Nothing else matters. And we are not done yet :)
The electronic song just before the unveiling is Space Song by Beach House.
Awesome song
The monster is the friends we made along the way.
You are sooooo slow at this lol. I'm kidding, I'm kidding haha. I just like teasing you. I'm really enjoying watching your reactions. Keep em coming
😂😂 I’m trying!
39:50 I Love the slow push in edit here! lol
Ajax is a Gorgon(Medusa). One of the 4 large groups in the school.
Fangs
Furs
Scales
Stoners
"Creepy shit" can be fun. Thanks for the reaction.
I LOVE WEDNESDAY ADDAMS SO MUCH AWW SHE'S SO CUTE OH I LOVE HER...
As always, look forward to seeing and hearing you on shows I like.. Stay warm down there.. from your friend from the north.
As a mechanic, Enid would be glad the tire didn't blow because that would have killed her. ^^
Love watching your reactions. This show is really my jam too. The Metallica cover of Nothing Else Matters is by a group called Apocalyptica. I have the album sowhere on CD still.
Ajax is a Gorgon like Madusa was in the myths hence the snakes instead of hair and turning to stone. Crackstone scares me so very much and you will understand how it all comes together in the last episode. It's interesting that Goody looks like Wednesday but that might just be because Wednesday is having the visions so her mind makes her look like that I dk. I am looking forward to seeing your reaction to the other episodes as specially episode 4 with the dance party.
The person who put the bag over her head was a nightshade
I think you have the best reactions to this show
Quick little story when I was 8 back in 68 I was playing in the gutter when it started to rain, I looked up and realized it was not raining on the other side of the street, so I crossed the street unfortunately several minutes later it started raining on the other side. Still remember it like it was yesterday.
Jenna learned to play cello for this series
You wanted to know about Crackstone and you got it; appropriately for a “great man of history”, he was a vile person but a product of the environment and time he was born into at the same time. Equally appropriate is Wednesday destroying his statue as many have done to monuments for history’s overrated criminals against humanity… while dramatically playing the cello. Glorious. Although I also love her passive-aggressively putting people off by speaking in German, so she wasn’t breaking any rules but still achieving her goal of getting them to not accept anything… magnificent.
Meanwhile Weems (who isn’t Roman’s mother purely because she’s a shapeshifter not a seer) continues to be a fantastic character. And even as Wednesday learns more she’s continually stumped by a combination of obstacles both external AND internal… including the principle and her clashing.We shall see how this plays out.
Why do we not suspect Enid? Because she’s too true to herself, at least on the surface, even calling out her roomie and others when they push her too far… but IS she truly that, ohoho? We shall see, eventually.
Concerning your patreon reactions do I need to own a copy of what you are watching or is the full reaction uploaded to watch directly to Patreon?
You do need your own copy because of copyright law. Essentially you can just put whatever you’re watching in the corner where I usually have the clips of the show and just watch the entire thing.
I love the the song Wednesday chose to play was Vavaldi's movement 1 "winter". Why would a Gorghan have mirrors in their home at all?, or their boarding school room?
The soundtrack is amazing
We men, do not get hints...... at all.... ever......
You know the hand-stick-wave thing that directs aircrafts into hangars....
Yeah, thats what we need.
🤣 I have found being direct works best
@@funnylilgalreacts Why don't more women think like you ! Tell us what you want, don't keep us guessing! 😍❤
Honestly I love Eugene he's so adorable. Might be crazy to say it but he's my favorite in the show
He’s so sweet and kind 🖤
If you hate the villian then he did a great job playing that character
I knew i recognize that creepy antique lady its Sophia Nomvete (only knew her from another prime video series) also i think wednesday found a new pugsley with eugene
I love the string version of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica at the end of the episode. It's so awesome! Love the reactions. Keep it up . Thanks for making great content .
23:20 😂😂 you’re hilarious
Late to the party, but two things:
1. The bath tub scene with Tyler is because he’s muffling his screams, like screaming into a pillow. It’s not an uncommon tactic for people with depression since it’s more effective at muffling the noise.
2. The Addams are originally Mexican in this universe.
00:00 - 00:20 I am very much *not* binge-watching this. I *decided* to watch 1 ep each Wednesday *on purpose* and *IT IS* killing me because everyone,most of the reactors included,is binge-watching and I already caught a lot of spoilers and I have to wait to watch _several_ videos because I know or I guess they're not spoilers free!X-SSS 00:21 - 00:28 *EXACTLY!* People these days binge watch everything in 1 or 2 days and then they spent a whole year complaining:"Where is S2?!When does S2 come out?!😫"WELL,if you didn't BURN the whole 1st season in 1 shot you would have to wait LESS before the 2nd arrives!!
01:02 - 01:13 Well,if that isn't the biggest fear of any mystery story fan ever!!😂
01:19 - 01:22 Oh! I was wondering who that was!😅Totally forgot her name!And I keep calling Weems"Brienne"and Thornhill"Wednesday"because it's easier!;-D
03:48 - 03:56 See,that's the thing about the monster!Even knowing who it is(because I've been spoiled!X-/)I still fail to see its motives.Because it's defending Wednesday and he's attacking BOTH normies and outcasts so it can't be some racist motives BUT he's also attacking...I can't say it yet because it's a spoiler from the next ep...let's just see it was someone else that didn't make sense for me to be attacked by someone who is behaving like this monster!😵Of course there's the possibility the monster can't reason while it's transformed and just attacks randomly,but if that's the case,why never attacking Wednesday and even appearing to _defend_ her?!?I'm so confused!!@.@ _Unless_ it's"controlled"by someone who WANTS to attack some specific people but also WANTS to preserve Wednesday for some reason?!?😱So like the monster was _specifically ordered_ to not harm Wednesday and to keep her alive?🤔
08:56 - 09:05 No,we don't(at least so far..I've watched 4 ep..gonna watch N°5 tomorrow)!😢I was so disappointed the 1st time I've seen the opening because it wasn't a cover of the classical theme song,but,since it's Danny Elfman and it's super-cool anyway 😎,I then got disappointed by the fact we only had the full opening *FOR 1 EPISODE* and each time I watch an ep I put the full opening on myself,because I DESERVE IT!!>^
It feels to me like most other seer's visions aren't reliable in universe. Such as what weem's says about Morticia's visions and Xavier says about his father's. Also we have rowan's mother. So I think that Wednesday's visions are an exception to the rule. I'm guessing other seer's have visions that they must interpret in order to know the future, which is why they would be unreliable. but hers aren't like that, she just sees a moment in time from either the past or future so she's both a postcog and a precog. We'll have to see if they show us someone else's visions to know for sure. But given how good she is at everything I'm guessing this is the case with her visions too.
Then again Xavier says visions only show you one perspective. So i get how it's easy to miss understand. So if you have a vision of someone looking at a dead body and holding a gun it's easy to jump to the conclusion that they shot the person when in reality they stumbled upon the seen and don't have anything to do with it. So maybe that what they mean.
While bronze can melt, a gasoline fire doesn't create enough heat to do it. Still enjoyed the scene though.
My only technical gripe with the episode was the homeless guy's camera. I also a photographer and have a few of those and they are from the early 80s and there is no way for it to trigger multiple shots like that by itself. As a side note I find alot of them in strange little antique shops just like the one in the show. :) At least they didn't do the whole film camera sound effect with a digital camera that alot of shows and movies do. Guess some of the sound design libraries haven't been updated since the 80s or 90s. Kind of weird to watch a show where someone has a brand new DSLR and you hear a film advance motor buzzing away.
They could have gone so lame & predictable with Bianca but wow, so fun to watch her & Wednesday.
