- TriviaGomez' prison jumpsuit reads 171912, which is Charles Addams' birthdate (January 7, 1912).
- GoofsWednesday says that she can determine that Gomez is lying because she recognizes his "tells" from when they played Russian roulette. Tells are an indicator that someone is being purposefully deceitful, such as in a game of poker when one wishes to hide the strength or weakness of their cards. As the results of Russian roulette are completely up to random chance, there is no opportunity to try to lie to your opponent.

Featured review
The show's dark comedy is taking a back seat to the serious drama-mystery.
The parents are coming together for a weekend celebration, but seeing Wednesday won't be worth it since Gomez is in prison for a crime he committed. While it is true that he fell as a result of an incident with a normal, there is another, darker thread in the story that eventually led to his tragedy.
If the show's director changes after the first phase is over, the successor director sometimes struggles to maintain the same level of filmmaking quality. As a consequence, the established style deteriorates until it becomes less risky and, therefore, easier to sustain during the course of a session, as the photographs become less innovative, more traditional, and more visually appealing. This is simply background for my main compliment: I believe it is vital to give credit where credit is due, and it is a big achievement for Gandja Monteiro to replace a creative force as formidable as Tim Burton while maintaining the same level of comfort they created. However, if you look attentively, you will see a change in orientation.
The show's dark comedy, macabre aesthetics, and self-awareness were initially what set it apart, but they seem to be taking a back seat to the serious drama-mystery at its center. There isn't as much visual comedy or crazy shots, framing, or staging as there was in the last episode, and there are also fewer humorous characters. The show seems to be losing steam or changing its emphasis away from what makes it unique in favour of less distinctive components. The narrative of the programme is unique in that it depicts a mystery-teen-drama concept through a Tim Burtonesque lens of self-awareness and excessive romanticization of macabre, sardonic, and even sadistic reactions to events that occur.
