Netflix teases Wednesday season 2, but fans want it to be called "Thursday"

The teaser for Wednesday Season 2 premiered on Netflix on January 30, 2025. Jenna Ortega returns to the show while the plot intensifies its darkness through the Nevermore Academy becoming the most disruptive educational institution surpassing the Voldemort-infected Hogwarts.

"Shouldn't Wednesday season 2 just be called Thursday?"

Wednesday teaser shook the web

The teaser is sneakily packed into a sizzle reel during Netflix’s "Next on Netflix" event. The first thing we see is Tyler (Hunter Doohan), our resident shape-shifting problem child, literally chained to a wall.

Looks like the writers are escalating on the tension left hanging in the season 1 finale, where Tyler was unmasked as the Hyde and sent off into the abyss of morally questionable redemption arcs.

Will he escape? We don’t know but the suspense is thick.

Meanwhile, Wednesday Addams is prepared to untangle even more supernatural chaos. Her signature glare is still sharper than a guillotine and her enemies are probably making their peace with the afterlife as we speak (or write).

The teaser hints at bigger mysteries, possibly tied to her family’s spooky legacy. Season 2 looks like a full cannonball into the abyss.

The teaser strongly suggests that the Addams family's past might hold more skeletons (both literal and metaphorical) than we thought.

A quick recap for the forgetful

The spin-off show Wednesday comes from The Addams Family while following an adolescent goth girl through the supernatural student institution Nevermore Academy made to accommodate misfits.

Nevermore Academy contains Hogwarts elements but provides students with less magical education and more homicide.

The show incorporates elements of mystery together with sarcasm and features a teen drama plot. When it first dropped in 2022, it basically took over Netflix, second only to Stranger Things in watch hours.

Wednesday Addams, with her emotionless delivery, is the perfect protagonist. In Season 1, she juggled family drama, messy friendships, and literal murder plots.

Now, Season 2 is promising to push her even further. More enemies, more mysteries, more emotional complexity.

She’s probably about to have the worst semester ever. We can’t wait to watch.
