Wednesday's Child is full of Woe
The Wednesday club being named for a group of college freshman all being middle children who in looking for connection also find their various family issues converge. They make mistakes and are taken advantaged of because of their youth, desperation, and ambitions. It's realistic that only some in the club become real friends and the others remain acquaintances that go through some trauma together all the same and in the end they go their separate ways.
The series missed the opportunity to really dial in on the friendship connections. May and Tam seemed like it was developing, but then they don't really interact anymore, being sectioned off to their own storylines. Either someone on the directing or writing team seems to have a thing for urine, featuring it not once, but three times. The lack of emotional connection between any of the club members leaves the ending feeling a tad empty.
