What do you think? This is actually the first I've seen of what Rachel and Brad look like as Wednesday and Fester. Interesting.

Who do they hire to do the photo shop work? Terrible..

I know it's not based on the TV show, but it disappoints me that they don't have the wicker chair in this. I mean, they even used it when they were in Chicago!

Brooke gets top billing over Roger Rees!

"awful photoshopping. rachel is a beautiful wednesday.. and brooke looks lovely."

How can they look lovely if its a bad ad? I think it looks like my niece cut Brooke out of a magazine and glued Brooke into the chair; as in cut-and-paste!

i meant exactly what i said.. rachel is a beautiful wednesday and brooke looks lovely as morticia, but the photoshopping of the pieces to construct this ad is awful. was it really that difficult to understand?

It looks like someone just "face-in-the-hole'd" John Barrowman's face into and old Bebe Neuwirth picture, complete with a bit of temple hair peeking through the wig. I like Addams Family and look forward to seeing Brooke in the role, but this is just awful.

This is nothing against Brooke Shields, but... there is only one Morticia: Bebe. I don't care how good she looks AS the part... it's how good she will be IN the part that I'm worried about...

Brad is perfect as Fester. It's great to see him back on Broadway in a part he was born to play.

Roger Rees needs to be replaced.

Someone needs to tell the show's PR/marketing person that they need to find someone who can actually USE Photoshop... since they haven't had time to take ones yet or aren't going to take any. I have seen some pretty bad ones of Bebe and Roger used in ads as well *shivers*

Disagree re Rees Agree on the rest

There will only be one Gomez - the original John Astin. The TV show cast was perfect . Pity it lasted 2 seasons but it is fun to watch them again after all this time

Re the brouhaha re the ad, do you think the average theatergoer knows or even cares?
