After watching it, I'm a huge fan of Jenna Ortega. I'm still not crazy about Guzman as Gomez, but technically, he's actually more like the cartoon character than the other two were. If you haven't gotten to the episode where Wednesday dances, you're gonna love it. I've watched it several times, just because it's so quirky.
I still have to watch the finale, but I agree with your take. I also feel like the showrunner doesn't totally know what he wants the vibe to be. Some comedic elements mixed in with some really dark stuff and they don't always flow together well. For those that don't know, it's the guy who did Yellowstone and the spinoffs. I've always appreciated Stallone so that's a bonus for me.
I am very interested in seeing where her acting career takes her. I cannot articulate all of her intangibles but she seems to me like she has 'it.' It would not surprise me if she has an untapped acting range to succeed in a number of genres.
I agree. IMO she's shown enough range just in this series to warrant high expectations. Also, when you consider the things she learned, just to play this role (fencing, cello, fight scenes) you can see how multitalented she is. If she doesn't become a household name, I'll be very surprised and disappointed. Then again, I expected a lot of Kirsten Dunst after Interview with the Vampire, and while she did become well known, she certainly didn't live up to my expectations.
I thought about watching that one, but it sounded like she becomes a bad person and I wasn't interested in that type of protagonist.
It will not be social media's fault if she is not a household name already. From my observations alone, I have seen Ortego is all over YouTube and TikTok in the literal sense.
The third and final season debuts in a few weeks.I just finished with Season 2 of Picard on Paramount+.
Ugh! It felt like work going back to finish it. I toughed it out strictly due to the time invested.
What an utter mess, and an insult to the great Patrick Stewart to be saddled with something like this.
The storyline wasn’t nearly as cute as the writers seemed to think and it feels like after earlier success, they’ve become full of themselves.
And the supporting characters are just plain bad. Several I actually wished would have been killed off.
And I see why Brent Spiner doesn’t get work outside of Star Trek. Even when he’s not playing Data, he’s still robotic!
3 out of 10.
Bad.
That was my motivation to finally watch season 2.The third and final season debuts in a few weeks.
my bad, I think the show is actually called The Glory.
