    Wednesday was born with a strong intuition. She knows how evil people actually are even though they may pretend to be innocent and good. And so she refuses to waste her time on anybody that isn't genuinely good or genuinely bad.

    The interviewer does not understand _The Addams Family_ as a brand, it seems. The Addams' are practically immortal, so Wednesday & Pugsley's "feuding" involving medieval weapons (The Electric Chair, the Iron Maiden [not the rock band, but the round box with protruding spikes to impale people stuffed inside], the Torture/Stretching Rack, a Bed of Spikes like those which Indian Holy Men sleep on, a Bathtub full of Boiling Lava, Burning Hot Coals & accompanying Red-Hot Pokers/Branding Irons, etc.) & the family pets (Cleopatra the Venus Fly Trap in the conservatory, the fish tank full of piranha, alligator couple Snappy & Ali, the children's pet octopus [either called Aristotle in reference to the Greek philosopher in the 1964 sitcom, Ocho in the 1973 animated series & Socrates in the 2019 CGI film], Wednesday's pedigreed Black Widow Spiders led by spider queen Homer [yes, it's a girl spider with a name after the Ancient Greek writer famous for writing Greek tragedies], Brontoslaw the living Brontosaurus skeleton in the 1972 _New Scooby-Doo Movies_ episodic crossover with Mystery Inc. subtitled "Wednesday's Missing", the alive Bearskin Rug in Gomez's study, Kitty the Lion as the family cat [who is quite tame despite looking fierce], the brood of bats in the tower belfry loaned from distant uncle Count Dracula [who, if we're following the original sitcom's "sister" companion series _The Munsters'_ canon correctly, is actually Grandpa Munster - played by Al Lewis - who is the geriatric father of vampire daughter Lilly - played by Yvonne DeCarlo - whose hair color scheme resembles The Bride of Frankenstein, as well as the resident mad scientist creator of Lilly's lovable dolt of a husband resembling Frankenstein's Monster - played by Fred Gwynne & his sloping latern jawline - who works as a graveyard shift caretaker at the local funeral parlor, not to mention being literal grandpa to Herman & Lilly's werewolf son Eddie - played by a young Butch Patrick, who actually showed up regularly at Horror Conventions & retro game shows for celebrity appearances during the Halloween month of October alongside original sitcom Wednesday, Lisa Loring, with a freely available fan-taped mock wedding between them to unite America's First Families of Fright together permanently - and the family "black sheep" Marilyn - played Beverley Owen for season 1 & Pat Priest for the remainder of the series until being replaced for the TV movies by another actress despite being willing to continue in the role, unlike Beverley Owen before her, who quit to be closer to her boyfriend & immediate family out of severe homesickness - who is more than likely a burgeoning witch of the Samantha Stevens or Sabrina Spellman variety without realizing it, but is more so based on famous Hollywood starlet, Marilyn Monroe, in terms of Golden Age Hollywood's portrayal of her, in both looks & personality]) is just "playtime" for them. They do it for fun, because it's enjoyable, just like how stereotypical children play your standard children's games, except with the expected on-brand Addams macrabe twist to it.
    Also, even Christina gets it wrong (despite being arguably the best Wednesday besides the original comic cartoon version, followed closely by Lisa Loring as the sitcom original & Debi Drewberry as the Wednesday of the 1992-1993 cartoon that's an amalgam of both Lisa & Christina by maintaining Lisa's sweeter nature whilst simultaneously retaining Christina's mischievous "playfulness", with all other Wednesdays - from the far more saccharine 1973 cartoon portrayal by Cindy Henderson utilizing Chas Addams' art style following their appearance on _The New Scooby-Doo Movies_ episode "Wednesday's Missing", to Nicole Fulgure on the widely-panned 1998 sitcom reboot _The All-New Addams Family_ following _Addams Family Reunion_ as a 1997 direct-to-video test pilot, all performers of her in the 2010 _Addams Family_ musical & the _Adult Wednesday Addams_ youtuber Melissa Hunter whose unauthorized, unofficial content was "pulled" due to Chas Addams' Estate manned by the creator's surviving relations who own the genuine I.P. of _The Addams Family_ & all companies that have the spin-off adaptation distribution rights - all came down upon her for portraying a copyrighted character without authorized consented permission - following thereafter), because, traditionally, The Addams Family does NOT kill unless it's deservedly so or if it's a requested mercy killing.
    Take it from someone whose maternal grandmother's maiden name IS Addams...FOR REAL. The "family" does NOT kill, unless it's absolutely necessary, family activities excepting, because Chas Addams' clan are, once again, essentially immune to death (they even outsmarted "the personification of the state of non-being" when the Grim Reaper himself paid a visit & became a personal acquaintance), as per the blood-letting Shakespearean play scene between Pugsley & Wednesday in the 1991 movie (where Wednesday's neck is slashed open & she loses an arm, all for the sake of "good, wholesome family entertainment"), so they know to keep their life-threatening "fun" strictly to themselves, unless someone trespasses on their property without proper clearance or tries to take advantage of them by falsely assuming that they're pushovers, in spite of being eccentric. As a general rule, even in those single-panel strip drawings that depict the clan seemingly doing someone in, it is mere satire & it is, more often than not, another relative being tormented because the family enjoys it & can endure it, whereas mere mortals without supernatural abilities cannot.

    @3:35 "Mean and nasty" vs "Sugary and sweet?" Wednesday was ironic, non-nonsensical, and usually very polite, while the girl scout was minimally polite in a snotty way. Speaking of irony, it's ironic that you're judging her from the apparent perspective of the middle-class, suburban people that the Addams Family was created to represent the opposite of. She's only "mean" and "nasty" if you're the sort that expects every little girl to be "sugary," "sweet," and preferably blond with light-colored clothes.
