Really, this movie showed that the Addams family might need to be a bit more macabre to leave an impact. The movie barely clocked in at feature length, even padded by credits and a performance from Cousin It - voiced by Snoop Dogg. How Are the Addamses: Where the 2019 feature had some sly, subversive humor for adults, this one lacked anything particularly fun or memorable. What Happens: This sequel to the 2019 animated reboot directed by “Sausage Party” helmers Conrad Vernon and Greg Tiernan sees the Addamses go on a family road trip where Gomez (voiced by Oscar Isaac) and Morticia (Charlize Theron) fear Wednesday (Chloë Grace Moretz) might not be their daughter.

It also excludes the 1973 short film “The Addams Family Funhouse.”

Note: This doesn’t include one-off television specials like 1977’s “Halloween with the New Addams Family” or their 1970s appearances with Scooby Doo. With “Wednesday” premiering shortly, it’s an opportunity to look at (and rank) the various depictions of the Addams family over the years. Where to Watch This Week’s New Movies, from ‘Blue Jean’ to ‘Transformers: Rise of the Beasts’ Wednesday is also tasked with harnessing her budding psychic ability to solve a serial killer case at Nevermore Academy and cracking a murder mystery that involved her parents 25 years ago. The series centers on a teenage Wednesday ( Jenna Ortega) trying to solve many mysteries, one being how to cement her identity outside the shadow of her ever-glamorous mother, Morticia ( Catherine Zeta-Jones). The latest iteration is Tim Burton’s series “Wednesday,” set to debut on Netflix on November 23. The cartoons and the various films and television shows that rose in their wake perfectly blend the humorous and the macabre while focusing on the tight-knit family of Gomez, Morticia, their children Pugsley and Wednesday, and Uncle Fester. The Addams clan has seen several incarnations since debuting as a series of The New Yorker cartoons penned by Charles Addams in 1938. (Or, if you’re a ’90s kid, you might start singing the “Whoomp! There It Is” version of the theme song that debuted with 1993’s “Addams Family Values”).

The minute you see the words “ The Addams Family,” no doubt you snap your fingers twice.
