Wednesday's Season 2: Did It Really Meet Expectations?
Four Episodes That Feel Like Ten.
It's unusual to feel bored just four episodes into a season, but many fans seem to share that sentiment. The subplots about her Nevermore classmates feel disconnected from the central mystery, and the overemphasis on her family — considered one of the least compelling parts of Season 1 — adds little to the story. And honestly, aren't we all a bit over the zombie trope? Given the anticipation for this season, the new episodes fall short of expectations.
To be fair, the season does find a spark toward the end of Episode 4, with the build-up to the not-so-intense confrontation between Wednesday and Tyler. This moment, while not groundbreaking, might be the only thing making us curious about the next four episodes dropping in September.
Overall, it's not a complete miss, but it does lend weight to the saying that 'firsts are always the best.' And in the case of Wednesday, that might just be true. Have you watched it? Share your rating below!

Wednesday's Season 2: Did It Really Meet Expectations?
No one can deny that the first season of Wednesday was one of the year's biggest hits, a short drama that perfectly blended thriller and fantasy. Audiences quickly connected with Wednesday Addams and her relentless drive to uncover the truth behind the monster. But with Season 2's first four episodes now out, it's hard to say the new chapter has lived up to the hype, at least so far. Swipe left for the full review! Four Episodes That Feel Like Ten.

"Wednesday" Drops Trailer for Part 2 of Season 2
Yara Sameh Netflix has dropped the official trailer for the final four episodes of 'Wednesday' Part 2. The footage features the return of a fan favorite character: Principal Weems (played by Gwendoline Christie), who died in the Season 1 finale. In the trailer, Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) wakes up from the coma she fell into after Tyler (Hunter Doohan) threw her out of a window at the Willow Hill Psychiatric Hospital. Weems, dressed as a nurse, greets her: 'Rise and shine, sleepyhead! Ready for your sponge bath?'. Suddenly, Wednesday and Weems appear in a dream-like outdoor area with a door that seems to lead nowhere and a massive gorgon head statue with a fireplace in its mouth. 'This isn't hell, Miss Adams, but I understand the confusion,' Weems says. When Wednesday asks, 'If I'm not dead, why are you here?,' Weems replies, 'Because I am your new spirit guide. Surprise!'. In another scene, Wednesday finally explains to Enid (Emma Myers) that she's in danger after keeping it from her during Part 1. When she says that Tyler is planning to kill both of them but that she's going to fix it, Enid replies, 'Fix it? You're the reason he escaped.' Weems appears and tells Wednesday that Enid has a point, but Enid can't see her. The footage continues to show Wednesday, Enid and others traversing through Nevermore and Jericho, with Weems saying in voiceover, 'If you don't hurry, you'll have nothing left to save.' The voiceover matches the voice of Lady Gaga that closes the trailer, saying, 'Beware, there will be a price to pay.' The pop star has been announced as a Season 2 guest star, but details of her character have still not been revealed.

"Wednesday" Renewed for Season 3
Yara Sameh 'Wednesday' has been renewed for Season 3 at Netflix. The news comes ahead of the second season premiere of the Jenna Ortega-led supernatural comedy, which is the most popular English-language Netflix series of all time. 'Wednesday' stars Ortega as the darkly funny Wednesday Addams, who is expelled from her school after dumping piranhas into the pool, and is transferred to a private academy for outcasts. The series also stars Gwendoline Christie as the shapeshifting principal of Wednesday's new school, Emma Myers as her werewolf roommate Enid, and Riki Lindhome as her school therapist. The cast is rounded out by Jamie McShane, Hunter Doohan, Joy Sunday, Georgie Farmer, Naomi J. Ogawa, Moosa Mostafa, Christina Ricci, Steve Buscemi, Victor Dorobantu, Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, Billie Piper, Isaac Ordonez, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter, Noah Taylor, Luis Guzmán, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. 'Wednesday' became an awards magnet after its first season exploded on Netflix in 2022, garnering four Emmy awards. 'Wednesday' Season 2 will debut in two parts on August 6 and September 3. In the second season, Wednesday Addams returns to Nevermore and must face off against a new tormentor to prevent Enid's death. 'Wednesday' is created by showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, based on characters by Charles Addams. Tim Burton is an executive producer alongside Steve Stark, Andrew Mittman, Gail Berman, Kayla Alpert, Jonathan Glickman, Tommy Harper, Kevin Lafferty and Kevin Miserocchi. Carmen Pepelea produces, and Danny Elfman and Chris Bacon are the composers. 'It's been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe — one deadpan quip at a time,' said Gough and Millar in a statement. 'We're beyond thrilled she'll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in Season 3. This time, she'll unearth more of the school's sinister secrets — and descend even deeper into the Addams family crypt. Or, as Wednesday would say: 'Nothing brings a family together like a good exhumation.'' read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks
