Some Good News And Bad News About ‘Wednesday’ Season 2’s Release Date

Wednesday Wednesday’s first season was one of Netflix’s biggest hits. The Jenna Ortega-led Addams Family spinoff tells the story of Wednesday in her formative years, off at Nevermore, a boarding school for magical outcasts. Wednesday is the most outcast of them all, heeding no rules but her own. In the first season, she puzzles out a dark mystery while doing her best to stay below the fray. Even to her odd schoolmates, she’s an oddity. New characters and cast join Season 2, including Joanna Lumley as Hester Frump, Morticia’s intimidating mother, and Steve Buscemi as Nevermore’s new principal, Barry Dort, taking the reins from Gwendoline Christie’s Principal Weems (RIP). Of course, many of the original cast also return, including Emma Myers as Enid Sinclair, Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, Luis Guzman as Gomez Addams and Hunter Doohan as Tyler Gaplin / Hyde. Alas, it does not appear that Christina Ricci will be returning for Season 2, though there could be a trick up the sleeve that once belonged to Thing. The good news is, we don’t have long to wait for Season 2. The series returns to Netflix on August 6th. The bad news is that only four of the eight new episodes are landing that day. The second half of the season will drop on September 3rd, nearly an entire month later. These split seasons became a lot more common after Stranger Things 4, which was split into two chunks about a month apart. The third season of The Witche r also split its episodes up into two parts. Perhaps the most egregious example of season-splitting was Cobra Kai’s final season, which was divided into three sections spanning nearly an entire year. The trend has cooled since then, however, with fewer Netflix shows using this frustrating release model. The new season of Love, Death + Robots is being released all at once, for instance. Ah well, as the saying goes, good things come to those who wait. And then wait some more. Here’s the Wednesday Season 2 trailer: The official synposes reads: Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. This season, Wednesday must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery. Creator/showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar return for the spine-tingling second season of WEDNESDAY, alongside executive producer and director Tim Burton. I would actually prefer a weekly release model over this season-splitting. While Netflix is known for binge-watching, there’s still something special about enjoying a new episode every week. It keeps the conversation going without making fans wait an entire month for a new episode.
