Trivia
Each of the four rowing teams is themed on a different Edgar Allan Poe story. The teams are The Black Cat (black), The Cask of Amontillado (red), The Pit and the Pendulum (violet), and The Gold Bug (yellow).

Goofs
Predatory plants like the Venus Flytrap do not instantly snap shut as depicted, even though they have trigger hairs able to respond within a fraction of a second. This is because detritus falling from the trees above is of no value to a carnivore: instead, the plant will wait until a second hair is triggered up to 20 seconds later, and only then is the trap closed on what should be a living victim. However, this scene takes place in a classroom full of vampires, werewolves, sirens, etc., so some leeway is allowed for fantasy.

Quotes
Wednesday Addams: I act as if I don't care if people dislike me... Deep down... I secretly enjoy it.

Fat pudgy toad

Super disappointed in the Gomez character He's a fat, pudgy toad. Not the sophisticated, upstanding, poised and stoic figure he's supposed to be. Expected so much more from the father figure from the regular show. Love Morticia! She is the most beautiful, poised, elegant woman in the entire show. Wednesday plays the in the role most excellent way. I have watched the Addams family series from when I was a small child and loved every single episode. I guess to pervert the original character to a toad ( Gomez) is disrespectful way to show the real character of someone. I'm sorry to rant, but expected more realistic.
