US EditionHere’s ‘Wednesday’ Season 2’s Surprising Rotten Tomatoes Score
NEVERMORE ACADEMY, AUG 6 – Wednesday Addams faces new supernatural threats and family tensions while the series remains Netflix's most-watched English-language show with over 252 million views.
- Netflix released the first four episodes of Wednesday season 2 on August 6, continuing the story at Nevermore Academy three years after season 1.
- The season follows Wednesday Addams tackling darker mysteries and visions involving birds, replacing lighter romance from the first season with more supernatural and death-related themes.
- This season features increased screen time for the Addams family, new characters like Pugsley attending Nevermore, and a chilling mystery set in motion by Xavier's last painting.
- Critics gave season 2 an 82% score on Rotten Tomatoes, up from 73% in season 1, despite fewer than 50 reviews; creators remarked, "It's scary at moments."
- Wednesday season 2 maintained strong viewership but unlikely to match season 1's record, with a split release schedule and pre-greenlighting already confirmed for season 3.
