Perfect comparison

DavidAames said sh*t is fire! Wednesday a fu*kin G! Yo since when was Pugsley such a bi*ch!? Only saw ep 1 tho lol

from my childhood memories , pugsley has always been a bit of a masochist. that usually followed wednesdays lead. but yea it was kinda odd.but then we didnt spend alot of time with his character. i suppose when S2 comes they'll focus a lil more on the family.

Show was good

Tim Burton directed some episodes too
