Let The Games Begin

To quote the great drag queen Alyssa Edwards, they’re spooky, ooky, and kooky. They’re everyone’s favorite gothic family and, since launching a new spin-off on Netflix, they already have audiences and critics raving. The show even snatched the record for the most hours viewed in a week for an English-language series on Netflix. Clearly, everyone has gone Wednesday wild, and can you blame them? The strange and deranged family has captured our imaginations since their inception in 1938. Their journey from a comic in The New Yorker to television to feature films and now to streaming is something of an American success story.
