Who knew a sentient hand could be so compelling? annagovert writes on Thing's pivotal role within WednesdayNetflix, and how he became the heart of the series:
series, Tim Burton’s foray into The Addams Family, I never thought that my favorite character would be a sentient, disembodied hand. Though, after watching the entire season, it’s very clear: Thing is the beating heart—er, hand—ofFrom the very beginning of the season, when he is deployed from the bottom of the Addams’ family car as it’s pulling away from Nevermore Academy, Thing stands out as an instant highlight.
Besides his ability to make her open up, he also forcibly puts Wednesday in scenarios that he knows will ultimately be good for her—but she will also immediately despise. In Episode 4, Thing types up a message to Tyler, inviting him to be Wednesday’s date to the Rave’N dance, and even secures her dream dress with a “five finger discount.
Since Wednesday keeps a certain emotional distance from all of her friends, she as a character is unable to aid in allowing the audience to connect with those side characters, and Thing becomes the tether between the audience and Wednesday’s friends—much like he tethered Wednesday to her friends within the series itself. In the finale, Xavier is locked in the Sheriff’s car, still chained from head to toe and presumed to be the monster.
Even though Thing doesn’t actually speak within the series, and his single-handed sign language is never captioned on the screen, he is an extremely expressive character, much more than he has any right to be. He is literally just a hand, but his emotions bleed through the screen clearly, and his love for Wednesday and her friends translates beyond language. This is largely due to the practical nature of Thing himself, who was performed by Victor Dorobantu in all eight episodes.
