Wednesday: Quid Pro Woe (2022)
Season 1, Episode 6
9/10
Enid is better.
27 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The episode started off great with the seance, leading up to the surprise birthday party for wednesday. The search for the monster in the gates house was the perfect amount of thrill, and a smart yet easy way to add another twist to derail the investigation. The scratch marks on tyler and arrival of xavier influenced the red herring of who the monster could've been. That being said, the love triangle between the boys and wednesday is still annoying and only made them seem creepy and insistent as she never pursued nor showed any real interest to either. Wednesday only ever talked to the boys for her own gain and to further the investigation.

Wednesday showed care for Enid throughout the season, and was more upset at her anger than when xavier or tyler had their dramatic outbursts. The boys made it seem as if they were led on and owed some sort of reciprocation of emotion/feeling from wednesday. Enid on the other hand always respected Wednesdays boundaries, never forcing a hug or declaration/validation of their friendship. The male love interests felt forced and rash. As shown by the hug in the final episode, i think enid was the only one who accepted wednesday for who she really was and cared for her enough to risk her life and finally "wolf out" even in the midst of their argument. Wednesday showed more emotion after the argument than with Enid, curling up into a ball and nearly crying- than she expressed after her first kiss turned out to be the monstrous serial killer. All in all, wenclair is the superior and only practical ship.

Wednesday: Woe What a Night (2022)
Season 1, Episode 4
9/10
love triangles are boring
26 November 2022
The dance was amazing and wonderfully choreographed/filmed. The drama between Xavier and Tyler over Wednesday however, felt forced and was unnecessary; their feelings seemingly came out of no where. Why were they so upset when Wednesday never showed any genuine interest in the first place? Even Jenna hated the idea of a love triangle for her character, and on top of that it was handled so poorly- both boys were pushy, insistent, and overly emotional which kind of ruined a majority of scenes they were in. While i can understand a love interest can be used to forward the plot, Wednesday never showed much care to their feelings.. She had more worry and guilt over hurting Enid than she ever did for "leading" the boys on.
