If you’ve watched Wednesday on Netflix, you already know the show is full of savage one-liners. But it turns out even Jenna Ortega herself couldn’t stop laughing at one of Wednesday’s insults while filming Season 2.

In a TikTok chat with Marie Claire Australia, Jenna was asked about her favorite roast from the series. She answered without hesitation, calling Tyler Galpin “generic looking.” Yep, that’s it. The line sounds simple, but the timing made it absolutely hilarious.

Here’s the setup: Tyler, played by Hunter Doohan, had just learned that his dad died. It was a super intense and emotional moment. Then Wednesday comes in and drops the “generic looking” insult like it’s nothing. Jenna said that trying to say that line with a straight face was almost impossible for her.

It is because Hunter was standing there shirtless. He was chained up, soaking wet, and looking like anything but “generic.” Jenna said it was their first scene together in Season 2. The whole situation felt so weird and funny that they kept breaking into laughter.

“Imagine looking at him like that and then saying he’s generic,” Jenna joked. “We couldn’t stop laughing.”

Fans know very well that Wednesday Addams doesn’t exactly care about timing or feelings. However, for Jenna, this roast became the most memorable one yet. And since she’s also been working as an executive producer this season, she might have even more sharp comebacks waiting for us.

So, if you thought insults of Season 1 were good, get ready. Jenna promises more savage burns when Wednesday Season 2 drops on Netflix on September 3.
