Netflix is expected to renew Wednesday for a second season in the New Year. Based on The Addams Family series, Wednesday features Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams. The sinister sitcom follows the titular Addams Family daughter as she attempts to solve a monster-related mystery at her school. The episode maintains Wednesday’s well-known emotionlessness as a defining trait of the character.
According to Deadline, Netflix will order a second season of Wednesday in 2019. According to the source, producers are already starting the process of researching locations for Wednesday season 2 and are actively looking for authors to join the writing room. Fans of the macabre programme will be happy to know that a Wednesday renewal appears imminent, as all indications suggest that Netflix is simply waiting to let the viewers focus on the first season for the remainder of the year before fully launching into season 2.
Wednesday surpassed all expectations and turned into a great Netflix mainstay. Season 1 of The Addams Family has shattered multiple Netflix records since its premiere, and Ortega’s portrayal of Wednesday has elevated the brand to new heights. The first week of Wednesday saw a total of 341.23 million hours of viewing, surpassing Stranger Things to become the most-watched English-language Netflix series ever. The first season of Wednesday recently overtook season 4 of Stranger Things as the most watched English-language Netflix series in history.
Season 2 of Wednesday has a number of intriguing stories in the works, from the introduction of the new antagonist to a sentimental reunion. Finding Wednesday’s new stalker in season 2 is one of the most pressing ones. The identity of the stalker was kept a secret in Wednesday season 1, so viewers will have to make assumptions until Wednesday season 2 airs. More The Addams Family characters need to appear in Wednesday season 2 in order for the show to fully explore the franchise’s potential. Fans especially want to see Grandmama and Cousin Itt who have been absent from previous seasons.
