From a comparatively minor member of The Addams Family, Wednesday Addams has become the preeminent creation of cartoonist Charles Addams, and looks to remain so for at least the foreseeable future. Netflix’s smash-hit Wednesday series is a big part of that, thanks to Jenna Ortega’s supremely winning performance in the title role. She arrived on top of Christina Ricci, who stole the show as a slightly younger Wednesday in Barry Sonnenfeld’s two classic live-action Addams Family movies.Indeed, Ricci’s performance helps inform Ortega’s, with the two actors both mastering Wednesday’s devastating poker face and clever lines. Both build on the original performance by Lisa Loring, as does Chloe Grace-Moretz’s turn in the two animated Addams Family movies. Ortega had her share of zingers in the first season of Wednesday, and Season 2 is apt to provide plenty more. However, if producers so choose, they have plenty of previous lines from earlier incarnations of the character — mostly from Ricci — to bring back for a curtain call. Here are 10 of Wednesday’s very best lines from other productions that fans would doubtless love to hear Ortega repeat.It’s a riff on a Charles Addams piece depicting her and Pugsley beheading dolls under the Christmas tree, which similarly served as a sight gag in both the two live-action Addams Family movies and the more recent animated films. Ortega’s Wednesday didn’t do much with the notion — at 16, she’s likely put dolls behind her. However, it’s become such an integral part of the character that a future verbal nod would be eminently appropriate.
