Wednesday - If You Don't Woe Me By Now / A Murder of Woes

The final two episodes of Wednesday‘s First Season dealing with Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) solving the mystery of the monster and the murders not once but twice with her realizing she’s actually been duped into believing Xavier (Percy Hynes White) is the monster, although the identity of the actual monster hits closer to home, and she’s completely mistaken about the identity of the woman controlling him. The penultimate episode of the season also brings a visit from Uncle Fester (Fred Armisen) while the final two episodes pull on various threads from the season allowing for Enid (Emma Myers) first transformation and make-up with her bestie, the culmination of Wednesday’s visions and the prophecy, and Wednesday’s friends standing up for her in the final battle including Eugene (Moosa Mostafa) and his bees.

Lockwood & Co. - This Will Be Us

I enjoyed the first episode of Lockwood & Co. that introduced us to psychically gifted teenager Lucy Carlyle (Ruby Stokes) in a world where ghost are real and overrunning the world. Much of the first episode deals with Lucy’s training and her truly awful mother’s (Sandra Huggett) attempts to make money on the daughter she can barely stand before eventually Lucy runs away in an attempt to make her own path. While one of the school’s best students, an unfortunate incident which got several of her classmates killed and her best friend comatose, Lucy can’t find employment at one of the larger firms due to leaving before her training is complete which leads her to the door of Lockwood & Co.

Edenwood #1

Edenwood #1

Written and drawn by Tony Daniel, the first issue of Edenwood introduces us to Rion and his friends who get sucked into the expanding Edenwood. Unable to save his girlfriend, Rion finds himself apprenticed to a Demon Hunter fighting a war against demons and their rise across the world. Given the large three-year gap in Edenwood #1 its unclear whether Rion’s story will continue from this point or if the series may jump back and forth in time filling Rion into becoming a demon hunter of his own.

Wednesday - Quid Pro Woe

No longer distracted by her parents, and using her friends’ attempts to celebrate her birthday by tricking them into some sleuthing, Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) turns her attention on an image from a vision leading her to the abandoned Gates Mansion where someone has been recently staying. Already perturbed at being tricked and dragged into another adventure, Enid (Emma Myers) and Tyler (Hunter Doohan) are in an even less forgiving mood after being attacked by the monster. With no proof to show Sheriff Galpin (Jamie McShane), Wednesday finds herself in hot water with both the sheriff and Principal Weems (Gwendoline Christie).

Dante's Hotel

Dante’s Hotel is one hell of a dumb horror movie about Father Time (a looming figuring in a Spirit Halloween Grim Reaper costume) taking 12 souls every 12 years from a downtown hotel on New Year’s Eve without any trace of bodies and always leaving the same survivor (Judd Nelson) for police to question. New Year’s Eve comes again with recovering alcoholic Goldie (AnnaLynne McCord) being the hostess for a party from which the malevolent spirit will choose a dozen new victims.
