She’s creepy, she’s kooky, and she’s finally back. After a dark and gloomy wait, Wednesday Season 2 is about to premiere on Netflix. Be sure to check out exactly what time it drops so you don’t miss a thing.
Wednesday has fallen into the same trap as other modern TV shows: taking years-long gaps between seasons. Yes, the Hollywood strikes had a part to play, but like Severance, Stranger Things, and The Last of Us, it’s hard to wait when the shows are so good.
The Addams Family spinoff’s debut chapter was a huge success, with the show becoming Netflix’s most-watched English-language series of all time.
Hopefully, with Jenna Ortega returning as the pig-tailed princess of death alongside some exciting newcomers (Lady Gaga, anyone?), it will all be worth it. We don’t have long until that moment arrives.
The second season of Wednesday has been split into two batches, with Part 1 landing on Netflix on August 6, 2025 at 12am PT / 3am PT. That’s a Wednesday, of course. We’ve listed other timezones for you below:
- 4am Brazil
- 8am UK
- 9am Central European Summer Time
- 12:30pm India Standard Time
- 5pm Australia
- 7pm New Zealand
Speaking to Collider about the delay, co-creator and showrunner Miles Millar explained, “Well, no one was more frustrated than us in terms of the three-year delay. I mean, it was like we had the writers’ strike, and we moved countries, moved from Romania to Ireland. We had a lot of logistical issues to deal with.
“We’re used to doing network TV, it’s what we grew up on, Smallville was like every season it was 22. So it’s frustrating for us too, as storytellers and creators, to have to wait to share what we’re doing with an audience that long.
“That said, the production is much bigger. We are going to be dropping visual effects shots into this last episode the day before it drops on Netflix, so it’s like up to the wire in terms of we always push visual effects to the max in terms of what we can do.
“So these aren’t just episodes, they really are movie-scale productions. We have over 3500 visual effects shot this season – they’re massive shots. It’s all about quality and making sure that the show is as good as it can be, but it’s, you know, big episodes…
“So, I mean, 18 months would be the bare minimum we can get the show back up just from production to air.”
How many episodes are there?
Wednesday Season 2 has eight episodes total, with four in each batch (more on this next). The episode titles for Part 1 can be found below (and, of course, they’re full of woe):
- Episode 1 – ‘Here We Woe Again’
- Episode 2 – ’The Devil You Woe’
- Episode 3 – ‘Call of the Woe’
- Episode 4 – ’If These Woes Could Talk’
When is Part 2 out?
The good news is, Wednesday Season 2 is just around the corner. The bad news is, there’ll be another wait for Part 2, which lands on the streaming service on September 3, 2025 – just under a month later.
This has become more of a trend with Netflix’s bigger titles of late. Cobra Kai Season 6 was released in three parts over a seven-month period, Emily in Paris Season 4 was cut in half, and Stranger Things Season 5 will air across Christmas 2025.
One of the biggest reasons is so it can retain subscribers for a longer period – the more time between each part, the more a subscriber has to stay. It also drives engagement up as it keeps the conversation about the show going.
What to expect
Wednesday Season 2 picks up shortly after the events of the first season, including the Season 1 ending revealing our macabre queen has gotten a new stalker. This will no doubt be part of a mystery she’s set to uncover as she returns to Nevermore Academy.
But it’s not just her own life on the line. As was revealed in the trailer, Wednesday has a psychic vision that Enid will soon die, sending her into full investigative mode again.
The second chapter of the Netflix series also deals with the fallout from her newfound fame after saving the school, an expanded supernatural world, and the arrival of Pugsley and the Addams family parents.
In a conversation with Tudum, co-creators Millar and Alfred Gough stated, “Wednesday goes into this season thinking she knows Nevermore. But as soon as she returns, nothing happens the way she’s expecting.
“She thinks she’s going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, but she doesn’t. Nothing is what it seems in Season 2.”
