The first four episodes of the second season of Wednesday are now streaming on Netflix, and the review embargo lifted early this morning.

For the most part, the critical reception has been positive, although some feel that the second season is a step down in quality from the first. The entire cast - Jenna Ortega is, once again, said to be a major standout - come in for praise, but quite a few reviews mention that an overstuffed, formulaic plot does hold the show back to some extent.

Despite a few negative verdicts, Wednesday season 2 is now "Certified Fresh" at 84% on Rotten Tomatoes.

At the end of the day, if the first season was up your alley, we don't expect any major disappointments here!

Have a read through some reviews at the links below.

Wednesday also stars Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia, Luis Guzmán as Gomez, Isaac Ordonez as Pugsly, and Thing... as Thing.

The first season proved to be a massive hit for Netflix, breaking the record for most hours viewed in a single week… twice. In the first week, it raked in 341.23 million hours viewed; in its second, 411.29 million hours viewed.

"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," reads the season 2 synopsis.

Burton made his TV directing debut with the show, and also executive produced alongside Jonathan Glickman, Andrew Mittman, Kayla Alpert, Gail Berman, Steve Stark, and Kevin Miserocchi.

“We can’t wait to dive headfirst into another season and explore the kooky, spooky world of Nevermore,” Millar and Gough told Tudum in January 2023. “We just need to make sure Wednesday hasn’t emptied the pool first.”

@harryba11zack - She has that weird Rothschild looking skull shape. And that has to be some sort of attachment she has on her hands right? A human cannot naturally have hands that look like that.

Cool , glad to see the positive reception so far!!:

I liked the first season so I’m looking forward to watching this though I might wait until all 8 episodes are out before starting S2.

@TheVisionary25 - The first four actualy wraps up a story arc but does leave a major cliffhanger, don't blame you for waiting to watch all eight but as there was a mystery to be solved which is in episode four you'll need to avoid spoilers.

There are basicaly three main story arcs set up without giving anything away, one to do with a prediction she has (you will know which as soon as it happens if you don't already from trailers), one to do with the Addams family itself and one to do with Ravens the latter of which is the main focus in the first batch and answered in episode four.

There are other subplots but I'll leave you to find those out :D

Anyway, unsure if it is AS good as the first season, but if you like the first season you will like this one but till I see the second half impossible to say for sure if AS great but more of the family dynamic with all the main family on campuc is MUCH appreciated :D
