Analyzing Enid: The Problem with a Bubbly Personality in Wednesday - Therapist Reacts! 

Enid’s a hugger. Enid also respects others are NOT huggers. Wednesday steps back to not be touched or to get a bit of personal space and Enid acknowledges that without making Wednesday feel bad about her boundaries. Respect.

One thing that I appreciate about Enid is that outside appearances aside, she is a very strong person. She holds the people around her accountable for their behaviour, and doesn't let anyone treat her as a doormat.

I'm always a sucker for the perky optimistic and the gloomy cynic being besties. In Enid's words, they shouldn't work, but they do! 💖

What I love about this show is that it doesn't do the unnecessary and frustrating misunderstanding tropes just to drag on the plot, characters say what they truly feel and it is really refreshing.

I love the blonde receiver/ black cat dynamic of their friendship. It's a classic trope that I never get tired of.

The Addams said Wednesday is allergic to colour AND they made a special uniform to accommodate her. The headmaster then rooms her with the most vibrant and colourful person in the whole county. That's like placing a kid with a nut allergy to intern at a peanut butter factory. But then again, Wednesday might like being that close to danger. That is her thing isn't it.

Enid's transformation finally occurs when she is running into danger to help her friend. She makes that decision prior to knowing that she would have the power to confront the monster, but she goes anyway. After the battle, and even though she she is injured, her first thought is for Wednesday. Everyone deserves a friend like Enid, but few find them.

"A really vicious werewolf puppy" that sounds very adorable 🤧✨

Wednesday needs to bring Enid home to her parents. Morticia would never shame her for not wolfing out. She would adopt Enid and admire how sharp her claws are

I think the thing I really loved about their shared hug is that at first Wednesday pushes back like she normally does. Right up until she sees her friend's face. Right until she sees how badly Enid needs this. And then she is the one that pushes the embrace the second time. And even when they are embracing you can see almost confusion on Wednesday's face as her eyes dart because I think she is surprised by the fact that she needed it too.

I love that they created Enid to be a very feminine but smart and strong character. Bc those things aren’t exclusive to each other.

Enid and Wednesday are tje perfect representation of the ADHD and the autism in my brain arguing all the time about what I should do.

Enid reminds me of a golden retriever. Eternally cheerful and everyone is their new best friend

My favorite thing about Enid is that she’s such a breath of fresh air from all the “baddies” and tough characters we see all the time She’s genuinely sweet, kind, and friendly while not being an airhead and it’s not seen as a weakness but as a strength She has heart and energy that I see in myself Enid made me feel better about my own sweet personality because it’s really easy to feel like you’re naïve or too kind in a world we’re everyone is outwardly tough but she showed that being kind is it’s own strength and you can indeed be your own person while helping others Thank you, Enid!

4:37 I took something different from this scene. 1: Enid makes it a transactional situation, speaking to Wednesday in her own language 2. She put Wednesday in a position where she has to compromise, which earns Enid some instant respect.

I do love that even though Enid is a hugger and super bubbly, she's also really fast on picking up on Wednesdays social cues and signs of affection even though they are completely contrasting to her own. Like when Wednesday took a step back when she tried to hug her, she instantly recognized and respected that signal, which is something not everyone can do.

I love how a bunch of characters in the show deal with Wednesday's general personality. There are moments when they give her pushback and she sometimes does need to hear that. But there are also moments where especially Enid recognizes who Wednesday is and she just works with it. She doesn't try to give Wednesday one of those "makeover scenes" they often have in shows, Wednesday is never forced to wear things she doesn't feel comfortable in, Enid gives her a Snood in her signature colors, she doesn't try to force Wednesday into a hug and doesn't get mad at her for not being a hugger. Also, despite how the relationship went later on, I loved it when Tyler planned a picnic in a crypt for Wednesday. Same thing with the birthday party for Wednesday in the crypt. Even when she didn't really react to the party, I still love how much effort they put into making something for her that's personalized. There's just so many cute scenes where they all accept Wednesday for who she is as long as she isn't actively hurting someone or something and I love it.

I am bubbly af and I looove Enid. I see myself in her and it’s so awesome because opposites do attract. My bff is calm and timid and quiet, and I’m loud and well, bubbly. She’s also not a hugger, which I accept. I am 100%. I just see myself in her and I hope she never changes cause darling, Enid’s world is beautiful

15:47 “Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly.” - Morticia Addams

One scene that you left out which I thought was important is when Enid embraces her Father. He tells her that he is proud of her and you can really tell how much that means to her.

Enid was the perfect character for Wednesday to play off of. She is an incredible bubbly, charming werewolf next to a dark cloud of a gothic witch. And she has self-esteem issues related to "wolfing out." She also won't take Wednesday's crap for too long. I didn't initially catch that her anxiety was why she couldn't transform. That works really well, and so does your Enid cosplay. I buy you as a grown-up Enid.

I love the scene were Enid's dad is slowly uncomfortably spinning the marshmallows on the stick. It shows he knows that the camp is a bad idea.

I think my favorite Enid moment is when Wednesday tells Enid that she never asked her to do those friend things for her and she responds loudly “you didn’t have to, because that’s what friends do!”

I know people ship the two of them but I think it was so important first that Wednesday learned to have and be a friend. I think they are both very similar too. They have strong personalities and while they grow they are not going to change who they are at their core to appease others. Wednesday isn't going to be perky to get people to like her. Enid isn't going to be gloomy to get people to like her.

At one point, Enid admonishes herself to not be a doormat, "no one likes a desperate little furball." But she's really not. She accepts Wednesday the way she is "not a hugger. Got it." And she doesn't let people walk all over her: "this kitty has claws, and she's not afraid to use them," and "go apologize and I'll reconsider helping you." Not that she'll help her, she'll reconsider helping her. S, she is stronger than people give her credit for, or even she gives herself credit for.

I really liked the whole ending sequence with Enid walking out of the forest, I thought Emma Myers really showed her acting skills in just this short clip alone. You can see the shock in her eyes, then when she asks where Wednesday is and nobody says anything you can see her backing away a little looking around as if she was frantically searching for her, because you can see her thought process "are they not saying anything because she's dead?". Then when Wednesday and Bianca show up and she sees people walking up to them she takes these few steps forward and you can see at first that she is a little hesistant, probably because it's dark and foggy and she doesn't really know who it is yet. But when she realizes it is actually Wednesday she immediately runs to her, because in this moment she is just so relieved that her friend actually came back. I probably watched that scene more than necessary, but I just loved her acting in it so much.

"Not a hugger, got it" INSTANT BEST GIRL

One of the things I love about this show is the way they show complimenting and contrasting personalities interacting and evolving off of each other. Even rivals who don't necessarily become friends find ways to work together for mutual benefit (Wednesday and the siren).Not since Arcane have I seen as realistic a portrayal of opposites interacting as realistically.

When Wednesday and Enid hugged in that last episode, I CRIED. Not just a few tears either, like full-on cried.

Am I the only one who watched their dynamic and thought to themselves; 'it's like the two halves of my personality are seperate and they were turnt into roommates.' Enid is much like my default mode, and Wednesday is kind of like my serious mode, as well as the way that I deal with people who I dislike or have severely disappointed me.

Watching the whole arc from being a niche RU-vid channel to a full blown community has been a delight. You're the best-ia, Georgia.

Finally a therapist reaction for Enid! I find her intriguing. I've been wanting to hear an analysis of her personality. She's a total opposite of Wednesday but they complement each other

Enid putting her arms behind her back when she talks to Wednesday show 2 things, she is open, honest, trustworthy, and she also respects Wednesdays bubble and privacy, nice touch

One of the things my therapist is working on with me, is disproving my negative self talk. Which is a debilitating problem for me. Being bullied for my interests and for being Autistic, have not only made me negative, it has also made me very angry and anxious.

Something that really makes me love this show so much is how the characters are so realistically portrayed. There are so many different personalities, backgrounds, struggles and strengths and they are shown genuinely. This show really opens your eyes to how everyone has their struggles whether as bubbly and positive as enid, or as powerful and confident as wednesday.

I'd be really cool to see a breakdown of the mother/daughter relationship between Wednesday and Morticia

She is definitely the opposite of Wednesday perfect character analysis as always. Love your nails by the way.

Honestly I related so much to what you said about Enid's character putting all her chips on the table. When I made the move with my now boyfriend I couldn't take the anxiety anymore and thought either it goes well or I finally know and try and move on.

I wish there was people in my Country talking about psychology publicly like this. So much ! All the knowledge displayed here about spirit and emotion really should be recognized as being of public utility !!!

My favourite bit was when she stood up to her mum at the end of term, and her dad was clearly proud of her!

Tbh I love the word “normal” because when I am misunderstood or rejected for being “weird.” I just remind myself that I’m not the problem. Society just has strict ideas & expects too much from most groups. That is society’s normal. The problem isn’t always me, sometimes it’s just that I’m not what is expected

"... especially when you have a PAWsitive bubbly inner spirit..." 🐺🐾

I think Enid would have taken on the Hyde as herself if she had to. She let go of whatever was holding her back because her friend was more important. That let her become what she needed to be.

Given all the cat references, and the "conversion therapy", I thought Enid was going to turn out to be a werecat. Given the long saber teeth on her wolf form, I'm still not unconvinced the writers/directors weren't originally intending that.

Wednesday and Enids hug is the best moment in the show to me

I feel like a whole episode could be dedicated to Wednesdays and Enid's room. Since the fact the painted side let's in less light then the clear side. It has a bit of yin yang feel

I initially read Enid 's "bubbly-ness" as a form of anxiety, as if she was trying to project an "everything's sunny" vibe to cover her insecurities about not having completed something that is a significant milestone in her family and community.

They did something right with Enid, and I cant put my finger on it. Usually this character archetype isn't for me; the bubbly, excitable energetic character is the type I'm quickest to ignore. Enid ended up being my favorite original character from the series by the end. Wish I could pinpoint why...maybe I'm just getting soft in my old age

A lot of people were annoyed at Enid, which I get, but honestly I fell in love with her character. It's the bubbly, kind hearted, understanding friend so many of us needs, but not many of us have

"Yin and yang is a Chinese philosophical concept that describes opposite but interconnected forces." That's what Jenna and Emma were to this show. The highlight of the whole season for me was the friendship between Wednesday & Enid, both Jenna and Emma gave beautiful performances, they had such great chemistry & nailed their respective characters! I really hope we get a season 2 because there's so much more to tell about these two!

I really love the scene where Enid stands up to Wednesday. Admittedly, I did cry, but when I first saw it, I had been having a really hard time reaching out to a friend who was isolating themself. We live pretty far apart, so I would try to text them, but get no reply. I even visited them but they just stayed in their room the whole time. So Enid’s lines “tonight was the icing on the birthday cake you couldn’t be bothered to cut” and “I’ve tried really, really hard to be your friend” spoke to me a lot.

I have a very good friend who is really open like Enid... she's been burnt multiple times, but it's still her nature & she's so genuine & generous emotionally! ... it's so valuable to have a friend like this ... i'll support her to the end of the world!!

I really like that Enid offered hugs throughout the series but never makes Wednesday accept them or be mad when Wednesday declines them. Enid knows and understands that it isn’t her Wednesday just isn’t a hugger. I also love that before the canoe race when she found out her teammate was sabotaged she didn’t ask Wednesday she was planning on finding someone else because she respected when Wednesday told her no when she first ask her if she wanted to participate.

I love when Georgia uploads. I find her analyzation of characters very interesting. Even the smallest details are explained! I love it

I kinda wanna see one of these on Bianca, the twist of her mother being full on manipulative and emotionally abusive was one I didn't see coming.

Yes, Enid is not a big scary werewolf, she’s a dog, a werewolf puppy :) Or maybe a golden retriever 😅 She’s always positive and supportive, she likes attention and hugs. There was also a scene where she was sleeping while hugging her trophy after the competition - like her favorite toy 🧸 Also, yes, she has A LOT OF toys. And at the end, she also didn’t hesitate and jumped right away to save her friend from a monster, even if the powers might not have been equal. I wish I had a friend like Enid.

Enid knows how to be a good friend! I wonder if that was born out the competition with her brothers and the rejection from her Mom. I was entirely frustrated with her Dad's behavior. He just stood there silently watching his wife be awful. Hyper awareness of other people's emotions sometimes are born from people just not caring or being careless with your own.

Something you don't usually hear a psychiatrist or therapist say.." She's going to be loved whether she becomes a Werewolf or not"

kudos to the writers of the characters! these characters really do have, characters. the consistency of their personalities and self-images even allowing a therapist to analyze, deep dive n elaborates those characteristics as if they were real people. i enjoy this video ;-)

0:04 lol Jenna perfectly recreated the facial expression an introvert gets when they see they'll share a room with an extrovert

9:29 I view Wednesday as my depression/ptsd and Enid as my adhd and positive hope filled self that’s able to drag me out of multiple depressions in my life. I loved when Enid has that moment when she’s fed up with Wednesday pushing her away...it felt like the moment my hope starts to leave and depression starts to set in. When I’m depressed I forget what hope and joy and positivity looks like and when I see it in that clouded state, my depression lies and says it’s not real. I start to view the Enid version of me as silly and naive and a joke bc that’s how so many people have tried to make me feel about that side of myself and I start to devalue that very important part of myself-she saves me. We need the Enid’s of the world and ourselves. They keep us going. They are what keeps the good in the world and they create more of it. Watching this show was really eye opening. Edit: last thing, it also makes me realize that my Wednesday/depression/ptsd side comes out to try to protect me from more harm when I meet my final straw as my Enid self. If everyone is going to hurt me and make fun of me for being positive, soft and kind, I’ll just turn cold and distant so no one can hurt me anymore.

The world needs more people like Enid. She is super-cool. Bravo to Emma Myers for making her so likable! Stand-out performance, breaking star one too!

Your breakdowns are delightful. Enid is empathetic and very protective of her friends and loyal (wonderful dog trait). Enid is gentle even though she’s a werewolf.

Honestly I wish the show was longer and we had episodes that focused on the other characters too because I definitely want more of Enid. I get that the shows name is literally Wednesday but I can dream right?😭

I love the character of Enid precisely for all these positive qualities that I myself do not dare to use

I was actually really annoyed that Enid finally transformed into a werewolf at the end. I've seen this trope done a bunch in shows where you have this "late bloomer" kind of character with all this willy nilly "will they wont they" get their powers, and it always ends the same way, with them acting like they don't care and don't need it and are fine without it and then they get it at the very end when they need it to pull off the big save and big win at the end. The reason I dislike it so much is because it feels like they didn't actually learn anything or grow at all because their powers that they said they were totally fine without are what is NEEDED to save the day at the end and they are super stoked they got their powers too. I think it is a much more profound story if they NEVER get their powers. If the threat of "it may not happen" is actually followed through on. While I can think of many characters who follow the trope of "maybe/maybe not get their powers then gets it and saves the day", I can only think of ONE SINGLE character that goes through the same experience but never develops their power and actually, truly does learn to accept not having it and never getting it. That character is Scootaloo from Friendship is Magic. She had smaller, underdeveloped wings and while it was never expressly stated it was a disability, thats basically what it was. Throughout the entire series run, people wondered if she would ever get the ability to fly or not, because she couldn't, and so many people wanted that for her so badly, especially since she also wanted to fly so badly. But she never did. She is the only character i'm aware of who actually went through something like this. I guess this trope bothers me a lot because it does remind me of disability so much. Writers love to try to turn disabilities into "strengths" or giving you extra powers or that you spontaneously get over your disability and are then fully functional, etc. It just irks me to no end because that isn't what happens most of the time. And you aren't learning to live with it by constantly yearning for it and then suddenly getting it when the plot sets it up for the payoff. And in THIS show, they frame it like sexuality almost, even saying "conversion camp" and stuff like that, implying her mother somewhat rejects her because she "isnt right" and is trying to fix her. So the show is basically saying her problem is that she is gay, then she finds out she was actually straight the whole time and its framed as very celebratory and the happy ending because its what literally everyone wanted all along. Whether its sexuality or disability, it just feels really wrong and bad to me that the show is basically saying theres something wrong with her, then suddenly shes instantly cured and now shes normal and totally fine. Also, consider Enid's mother. She's going to be so much warmer toward her now and proud and etc. I think Enid's character and story would've been FAR more interesting if she had never fully wolfed out, and she just had to learn to live with that, and her mother had to get over her issues too to learn to love her daughter for who she really is instead of who she wanted her to be. That story would've been more profound and interesting, to me at least.

The hug scene was so perfect. Even when Enid hugs Wednesday in relief, she pulls back when Wednesday tenses up because she respects that Wednesday doesn't do hugs. But she also communicates how much she needs that with her eyes and Wednesday also recognises this and equally grateful that Enid is okay, notices she's had a tough time and needs this hug and decides that she can put aside a little discomfort on her own part in order to give her friend what she needs. And as others have said, realises that she needed that hug too.

This is such an interesting video! I love so much this series and your take during this video! Enid is such an interesting character cuz she's bubbly and super optimistic, and over-excited, but at the same time, she's not lying to herself and scared to say her opinion and what she is or believe. Towards the end, when she comes back and say that they work, and that she will not excuse herself for being who she is bc that's literally who she is, like embracing herself, i found it super interesting; i believe it shows her strength. Cuz not only is she's already labbelled as an outcast, but bc she couldn't transform she was an outast in her family (or for her mom in a way), and i love how she's just still positive. She's not lying to hersekf. In a way, she's somehow similar to Wednesday. It's an interesting dynamic that these two share and it's amazing to see their relationship (and enid personality) grow, too! Thank you for this vide.

Oh Enid, I just want to protect her at all costs. She's absolutely adorable, excepting, and just wants to give everyone a chance. I liked her the moment she came on. And yes, it made me happy Wednesday was able to accept a hug from her; that's legit character development right there. It also shows that Enid was relieved to see she was okay. Also, thank you for saying courage isn't being not afraid but going in in spite of the fear. That's something that few people acknowledge or talk about. Thinking being brave is without fear, but I 've always disagreed with that. I doubt the marines at Normandy Beach in WWII were without fear. They were terrified I'm sure! But they did what their duty and helped free France.

0:26 Wednesday stepping back is me 100%! I wanted the shrink away when Enid came up to her with open arms. That was too bubbly too fast for me, and I grew up with a friend who was bouncing off the walls constantly!😅 I don't like being touched by strangers, so I try to us body language to show that. Saying such tends to make things more awkward(in my experience, at least). Once I get to know someone physical touch is okay, a hug here and there, but I prefer not to most of the time. I'm glad Enid respected Wednesday's body language immediately.

The amount of subtle hints to her own insecurities and inner issues is truly impressive especially if you notice the people she hangs around with the most

Ms. Dow, you are very gifted at non-verbal communication. Posture, hands, affect, facial expressions, eyes - the whole sphere integrated. 80+ percent of good, honest communication comes not from the words we use, but the way we use non-verbal cues. I absolutely did not realize until I was listening to one of your videos when I was cooking a meal. I glanced over at the video and immediately the point you were talking about became immediately clearer just by body posture, etc. You are an examplar of very clear non-verbal communication.

it’s always nice to see more content with enid since i feel she was a little underused in the actual show

I really like the touch that this therapist dresses into the character in order to understand it better. You really got my attention with such level of detail and immersion 👍

Back when I was 20 I was hard working yes man I couldn’t say no and I was always finding positive in things and I learned the hard way mostly from my mom and dad That the world will take advantage of people like that so lately I’m learning to be firm with myself not afraid to ask for help and also learn how to not feel bad for just saying no and taking time for myself Still sometime I feel bad but than again in life you can’t always make everyone happy

I think the reason why Wednesday changed the room and was a bit colder than usual was because she saw Enid gossiping about her. She will strike back if someone does something to her.

I like how you broke down the part of how society is today with family not accepting you for who you are and that family not realizing (or maybe they do) how hurtful they are to that person who just wants to be accepted. They may feel that not being accepted = not being loved. Same with Enid and her amazing heart. You can see the hurt in her eyes and even wanted to cry when she realized what those brochures were for. That unwitting toxicity from her mother she anticipated from years of exposure to it. Very relatable. We become guarded and cautious around any family we feel poses any kind of threat.

Love your analysis, any chance you consider doing one specifically on how Wednesday and Enid's friendship evolves? I was just rewatching the series and I found very interesting how in her own way Wednesday starts hinting that she cares about Enid, in that scene where she tells her "If he breaks your heart ill break his" without even looking but showing she's starting to engage in that friendship. :)

I love Enids nails in this!!! The characters are so well written and the actors are the icing on the cake. What a great production and I really enjoyed the show and the perspective it took. Feels like I've been waiting for show like this for centuries!

She really does show golden retriever vibes and she respects personal space. which is both a win win

Gosh, I always love how your look is inspired by the character you are analysing. This is such an Enid look and I loveeee the nails 🥰

12:52 2 lines from a song I like that I think kind of relate to Enid and/or Wednesday are these You can't find yourself, when you are constantly forced to conform. Scars that cover wounds can't hide the self inflicted pain.

You just described exactly how I feel about receiving complements and why they make me uncomfortable. I can never believe people are being sincere. And if I do think they are earnest I can't help thinking they are wrong, they are not seeing as I really am. Guess I might have a little impostor síndrome too.

love those two. perfect opposites attract, they grow to respect each other and have their emotional arcs truly complete each other. the dynamic is golden. truly hope we get to see the friendship grow into something more, there is such potential for an amazing story there.

It‘s honestly crazy how opposites attract, and even help each other. I‘m generally a very quiet and anxious person, and I don‘t really like leaving my comfort zone unless I absolutely have to. My girlfriend is someone very loud and bubbly and maybe a little crazy, and whenever I‘m around her, it‘s so much easier for me to find that new, bigger bubble of comfort and do things I probably never would‘ve done without her. I just find it interesting to look at the brain work and thought dynamics between those relationships, because you can look and see how someone changes around different people and in different settings. I find it absolutely fascinating and so cool how our minds sort of automatically tell us, “Hey, different place, different people, so different act.“ Unless, y‘know, you‘re Wednesday Addams and literally couldn‘t care less.

15:00 that whole scene hit hard. Like I’ve never been to conversion “therapy” but it reminded me of my relationship with my father, and how he refuses to accept me despite knowing for years that I’m queer. At this point I’m mostly numb to it, but there’s times I get jealous, because all I got was avoidance and intolerance from my father, and not comfort and acceptance. Ig im more like Wednesday in that fact lol- like I don’t trust many easily because I’ve been hurt emotionally by my family so much that I repressed it. Like- not that I don’t care about others, but the fear and trauma I have from my other relationships makes it hard to want to know other people.

What you mentioned the beginning of your video. Reminded me of my 1st day of kindergarten. We were in the gym I think for some kind of orientation. I remember there was a sugar cube on the floor. And that I was debating with myself on whether to pick it up and eat it or not. Would it make me sick would it give me super powers. I remember debating with myself in my head. To eat the sugar cube or not. My kid self That rarely got to have any sweets or treats, Strongly wanted to eat the sugar cube. My responsible follow the rules self. Was saying no because it was on the floor. I think I entered up picking it up and throwing it away. But I bring this up because. It was that moment that I realized I was thinking. I had always had thoughts where I was talking to myself inside my head. But it wasn't until that moment that it occurred to me that my thoughts had a voice and I was talking myself in my head. And I looked around at the other kids and I saw their eyes and some of them are talking and I was wondering if they thought too. Did they think and hear themselves like I did. And then I tried imagining myself behind their eyes. Does their thoughts sound like mine too or do they sound like their own voice. And I just remember that being like an epiphany moment kind of thing. I was 5. But then we had to lineup to be shown another place in the school. I might have actually eaten the sugar cube I can't remember if I did or not. It Was an intense inner battle. That became completely meaningless and unthought of as soon as I became aware that I was thinking and the other people might think too. It was a thorough distraction from the sugar Cube I must say.

Enid’s a great character. She’s such a golden retriever puppy! You just want to scratch her behind the ears and give her a crunchy treat.

Your remark on empathetic people being able to give more thoughtful gifts is spot on. From gifts to secret santa poems, I even written one for a total stranger once as a girl at this art center whom I followed cartoon drawing classes with didn't knew what to come up with for her classmate. I'm good at figuring out what someone likes and taking it into consideration.

Haha the video we all needed! I love this duo, they have the classic dynamic: Enid is the human embodiment of a golden retreiver while Wednesday is the black cat. I love Enid the most in this show. I am more of Wednesday type of person (not to that extend though) so I always happen to have friends that are very bubbly and lively, opposite of me. It's very tiring but if you can balance it's great. The problem is not always me getting tired of their high energy after a while but it's also a matter of me showing that I care about them because sometimes people like them take it as if I don't wanna be with them or don't like them or at least it shows like that. It's the opposite though, and I am definitely attracted to people who are more bubbly and friendly like a puppy. I just say "if I wanted to see someone who's always tired, sarcastic and grumpy I'd just stay at home and look at the mirror all day." So I prefer people opposite of me. Also, nice nails and cosplay Georgia! I don't know how people wear them either, it makes me very uncomfortable to have acrylic/prosthetic nails. I think wearing those in itself is a privilage since you shouldn't be doing any cleaning, cooking or any other hard work with them on your hands and just sit there like a doll. I also have a feeling it must be hard to wipe your bum and it could be a health hazard if you used those hands to knead a dough. Don't know about the wiping though, illuminate me since you have them.

Oh my gosh, The way she's so proud about being devious and even that little giggle. I do the same thing.

I love that she chose to dive deep into Enid instead of Wednesday, even though Wednesday is the more obvious case study. Not only does it show what a lovely character Enid is, it also provides insight and contrast to Wednesday as well. Made for a richer video IMO. And fascinating info on people and relationships as well. Loved it!

when the summer camp came up I realized what her hair symbolizes

Enid is a friend that every girl would like to have, a wonderfully played character, I love her

enid and wednesday hugging at the end made me tear up cause it was so sweet 🥺🥲

Enid was extremely cute. I think I'd prefer interacting with somebody with her personality over Wednesday's dark and negative personality.

not me getting halfway through and realizing i am very much like enid... this quote really punched me in the face: "people that are often super positive, that's the fear--they're so positive and caring and loving because they're so worried about being rejected and that if they were ever mean or confrontational or difficult, they would be pushed aside"

Hearing Enid described as a puppy, I was struck not only by how apt that comparison is but also by how the feline imagery that Enid ironically applies to herself actually fits Wednesday much better in juxtaposition. Dogs typically wear their friendliness on their proverbial sleeves and offer it quite freely, whereas cats, at least superficially, tend to be more aloof. Of course, cats can be warm and affectionate as well (I'm a cat person myself), but they often make their owners earn that affection and are more selective about when and with whom they show it. Wednesday, with her general stoicism and slowness to trust anyone enough to show even a modicum of emotion (besides anger), may be an uncanny albeit extreme personification of a cat. Hell, even those she cares about aren't always spared from getting metaphorically scratched or bitten. She just won't let her teeth or claws go as deep as she would if she were dealing with a true enemy or even a mere stranger. So basically what we have here is a dog and a cat being thrown into a room together, and we as the audience are treated to the slow burn of these two very different creatures bonding despite the psychological obstacles!

You are absolutely right about "normal". I hate the term normal for the same reasons you described. There is a song with lyrics that perfectly sums up my thoughts: "Normal is not the norm. It's just a uniform"

I think Enid's bubbly nature is a coping mechanism for her mother's treatment and expectations of her.
