This show sounds so uninspired.

It's just the same "young outsider (who just happens to be conventionally attractive and slender) discovers they have a special gift and thwarts evil while dealing with teenage angst and drama" crapola as we've seen for a couple of decades now.

Between her various voice acting gigs and filming Scream (2022), miss girl stays busy. Collect another bag, sis.

Still lol @ Wednesday trying to stop a killing spree.

[boomstick]

Right? Wouldn't she be leading it?

[whereisglory]

Same, she should be the one doing the killing. The plot sounds so dumb.

This is the opposite of what Wednesday would do!

This sounds like a Sabrina ripoff but I’m here for Jenna staying booked & busy. Can’t wait to see her in the new Scream.

I have no idea people were trying to make her a thing.

I feel like I've seen her everywhere and nowhere at the same time like Elle Fanning...bc they give you nothing in whatever they're in.

That's kinda funny since she already played Wednesday in the animated movie.
