Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams in 'Wednesday'.
With her signature deadpan delivery and sarcasm, Wednesday Addams has been dishing out some of pop culture's darkest one-liners for decades.
From her early appearances in The Addams Family television series of the 1960s to the iconic performance by Christina Ricci in the '90s films The Addams Family and Addams Family Values, the beloved Addams Family daughter's dry humor has become her signature.
And now, with Jenna Ortega's modern take on the character in Netflix's Wednesday, a whole new generation has been introduced to the queen of deadpan. Ortega's version adds even more bite — and emotional depth — while staying true to Wednesday's oddball charm.
Wednesday's quotes often reveal observations about conformity, identity and the absurdity of a polite society. Whether she's schooling her classmates on Thanksgiving myths or shutting down a well-meaning adult with a withering glance, she always has the final word — and it usually stings.
Here are the most memorable Wednesday Addams quotes from the 1990s to now.
