Jenna Ortega stars as the titular daughter, with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán as her parents, Morticia and Gomez Addams. Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in the films “The Addams Family” and “Addams Family Values” in the ’90s, has a small role in the Netflix series.

In second place is the German thriller “1899,” which follows passengers on a ship bound for the U.S. at the turn of the 20th century. The transatlantic voyage takes a mysterious turn when they encounter an abandoned vessel in the ocean.
