I’m fully claiming it. I enjoyed Wednesday Season 2 even more than the first. I don’t want to say that it feels bigger and better, but it is bigger and better. Just not in a way that reads as forced.
In this new season, Young Wednesday’s shenanigans remain at the centre of things, as expected. But the extra magic comes from a great story, Wednesday’s growing confidence, and how her family members are included in this season to great effect. For example, Catherine Zeta Jones really comes into her own as Morticia Addams, and Joanna Lumley is brilliant as Grandmama Hesta Frump.
Other memorable characters include Evie Templeton’s Agnes Demille, a.k.a. Wednesday’s stalker, and Lady Gaga as Rosaline Rotwood.
Typical of films/shows that involve Tim Burton, the production design and costumes are beautiful, along with the cinematography and dialogue.
The worst thing I can say about Wednesday Season 2 is that Wednesday’s little brother, Pugsley Addams is annoying. However, even that failed to stick. Because when I turned to Google to see if others agreed, my displeasure dissipated when someone said that Pugsley is simply awkward… which is still arguably annoying, but perhaps more easily forgiven.
Make time for Wednesday Season 2. It really is well-executed and fun.
Happy Film Loving,

I’m only halfway through season two and agree that it’s good so far.
Glad to hear it. Great news, it gets better! 🥳🥂
Gia, I binge-watched the 2nd half over 2 days and LOVED IT! It was irritating to have to wait for the 2nd half, and I had to watch the last episode of the first half just to get back into it, and I’m glad I did. I loved the same things you did about it. The setting and the costumes are also excellent. The only thing that kind of threw me off about it was the brain eating. YUK! I had to avert my eyes at those parts.
I’m so glad you had a great time, Lisa! 🥳🥂
I’m with you about the 2-part nonsense. That’s about Netflix’s business wants/needs than anything for viewers.
I deliberately didn’t start watching the new season until a week before part 2 was due, just so I could avoid the month-long gap in between.
The brain-eating was indeed gross; however, most of the time, the footage cut off without actually showing the brain 😁
My son thinks I’m a wimp when it comes to graphic violence. I freely admit it 🙂
Tell him that everything can’t be for everyone. 😁
🙂
p.s. You did it the right way, waiting to watch the first half until the 2nd half was showing. I didn’t know netflix was going to do that and didn’t find out until the end of ep 4 😦
It’s hard to wait when you know something good is readily available. Come season 3, I recommend distracting yourself with other great shows and ignoring any media about it. 🤞🤞
p.s. do you know if they are planning a season 3?
If IMDB and Jenna Ortega’s upcoming projects list is anything to go by, season 3 is guaranteed. Even more so if most people had as much fun watching this season as you and I did. I can’t wait! 🥳🥂
Cheers!
My pleasure! 🤓🥂
I’m slowly finishing season 1. Currently I’m occupied by Alien Earth and Alien franchise at large as well as finally watching some of the Kubrick’s films I have not yet seen.
And people say that men can’t multitask. 😁
I hope you’ll find it worth the wait. 🥂
I just met a blogger from San Diego named “edmondslance” who’s also watching Alien Earth and big into sci fi. Check him out👽🌍
Haha Pugsley. Her fam all got expanded roles this season, didn’t they. I’m on episode 3 so I’ll be back when I finish. Savoring this Burton spooky season essential🎻🖤🐝
Exactly. And they did that expansion so very well, indeed. Enjoy! 🤓🥂
