165: Addams Family Values (1996)

"We cannot break bread with you"

If you're an American, how old were you when you first learned the truth about Thanksgiving? Did you have great parents? A private school education? Or did you learn because Wednesday Addams radicalized you? With an episode landing on Thanksgiving here in the States, The Wives Colangelo are talking about the film that established Wednesday Addams as the protagonist of all things Addams Family, and complaining about how Hollywood was too afraid of how powerful Joan Cusack would be if they let her play sexy and funny more often. Let this episode be your escape from whatever nonsense is being argued about at your dinner table.
