Remote Viewing: Wednesday Addams, The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and Tales of the Jedi

 Finished binging the Wednesday Addams series on Netflix and loved it. Twist at the end that I should have seen coming and a tease for a second season. One of the delights was that just as in the original TV series, Thing displays so much personality and you actually feel for him in some scenes. Personally, I thought that Fred Armisen was perfect at Uncle Fester. He and Thing as partners in crime is just perfect.

The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special was a lot of fun, with the cast returning. I can't recall the secret Mantis reveals being from the comics, but it was probably there and I missed it. Enjoyed the holiday songs, which were a bit twisted. Kevin Bacon did a nice job playing himself and doing a song with the alien band. My one grip is the use of a guy in a costume to play Groot. I wonder if they had intended to replace him with CGI at some point and budget or time got in the way. Both Rocket and Cosmo were nicely done. The animated opening and closing bits explaining Peter's early experience with Christmas in space were nicely done.

Finally, the Tales of the Jedi animated series on Disney+ was nice, as it fills in some backstories for several characters. These mostly lead up to the prequels, with the final one taking place sometime after Ahsoka left the Jedi Order if I recall her history correctly.
