Three weeks after its release, Wednesday became the second-most watched English-language series in Netflix’s history, totaling over a billion hours, making the prospect of a season 2 practically inevitable. Wednesday season 1 captivated audiences with Wednesday’s investigation into a mysterious monster terrorizing the students of Nevermore and the residents of the neighboring town, Jericho. The epic cliffhanger ending created the perfect opportunity for a season 2. Wednesday season 2 could be setting itself up to be a much darker ride.
