Cristina Ricci by far, though it helps she was flanked by a solid cast all around in those movies.
Jenna Ortega is good and deserves a lot of credit for actually being a fan of the Addams Family, but she's limited by a badly written show. It's probably being too optimistic to believe it'll improve since she's taking a larger role in the actual writing for season 2.
I don't have any particular issues with Lisa Loring, I just don't like the much younger Wednesday who, aside from her exotic pets, was basically just a regular little girl. That show was carried by the adult cast.
For me, Christina Ricci, easy. Jenna was great because she was doing Ricci’s “Wednesday”. Loring deserves props as the originator, but the original “Addams Family” was lighthearted and fun. The “darkness” was entirely ironic. At the time, unique, fun, and interesting. But i prefer dark.
No one tops Christina Riccis portrayal in my opinion ❤️! I’m glad they brang her back for the new Wednesday series

Jenna gives it more life than Christina do. I grew up watching The Adams family with Christina Ricci but Jenna gives it more life and character. She is the perfect fit for the role.
I personally liked Jenna Ortega, the best as she had the very best dark humor comments and the dead pan delivery of her lines... Jenna, hands down
They're each best suited for their roles and the situational comedy they did. The one thing I will say is Chrisina Ricci and Jenna Ortega are interchangeable in my opinion. I don't think Lisa Loring could have pulled off the later roles.
I've only watched the newest one and I liked it so I don't have a lot of perspective on this.
It's hard to beat the original. That's why sequels are usually disappointing.
I'm not a huge fan of the Addams Family. I recall a lot of hype around the 1992 movie but I don't recall Ricci in the Wednesday role.
I like Jenna Ortega but I haven't seen her show.
I’m always go with the 90s mainly because I’m a 90s baby but Ortega did make an impression
Christina Ricci by far.
Ortega is just an edgy teen.
Ooooh! Good one. But Ortega is a clear winner.
Ricci. She nailed the role.
