Summary

  • Jenna Ortega confirmed a darker tone for Wednesday season 2 with more horror elements.
  • To maintain balance, the show needs to include humor in the storyline, especially with key characters.
  • Fans hope the second season retains the witty and eerie humor of Jenna Ortega’s character from the first season.

Looking forward to this year’s return of Netflix’s “Wednesday,” it’s been quite the wait since its premiere in November 2022. As a supporter, I can attest that the anticipation for the next chapter in Jenna Ortega’s character’s story has been building steadily. It’s no easy feat to keep fans engaged while trying something fresh and exciting, but I have faith that “Wednesday” will deliver once again. The addition of a stalker plotline intrigues me, as I’m always drawn to a good mystery. Here’s hoping that season 2 lives up to the hype!

While I’m thrilled about the fresh plotlines and actors joining Wednesday in its second season, I really hope that a key aspect from season 1 is carried over to the new episodes. Otherwise, the show may seem too dissimilar, making it less fulfilling for me.

Wednesday Season 2 Needs To Keep Its Sense Of Humor

In January 2024, Jenna Ortega talked about Wednesday season 2’s tone with E! News and said:

“I’ve received some scripts for the second season and we’re definitely leaning into more horror.”

I appreciate the idea of a more somber Wednesday, but I believe the show should continue to preserve its distinctive blend of humor and edge. The most memorable moments from season 1 of Wednesday showcase the Addams Family character’s wit and acerbic remarks. It’s engaging to watch her engage in verbal battles with her peers at Nevermore Academy, as well as uncovering Tyler Galpin’s (Hunter Doohan) true identity as the Hyde Monster. However, Wednesday truly comes alive when she can express her biting yet humorous side.

The second season of “Wednesday” promises plenty of suspenseful storylines, including Tyler being confined at Willowhill psychiatric hospital and Wednesday’s hunt for her stalker. However, I believe a light-hearted narrative is essential to offset the darker scenes. Perhaps Wednesday and Enid Sinclair could collaborate on a project exploring their family histories, leading Wednesday to unearth a humorous anecdote about one of her ancestors. This setup would also allow for the inclusion of other Addams Family members or showcasing the iconic Addams Family mansion.

I’d equally enjoy watching the other principal characters express their humorous traits, such as Enid, who showcases a cheerful and carefree demeanor in Wednesday season 1. It would be amusing to delve into her werewolf background, serving as an entertaining subplot that gives her the spotlight. Additionally, I’d be thrilled to witness Wednesday’s younger brother Pugsley Addams (Isaac Ordonez) cracking just as many jokes as his elder sibling.

What Are Some Of The Funniest Quotes From Wednesday Season 1?

In the first season of Wednesday on Netflix, Jenna Ortega delivers some sharp-witted dialogue that I’m eager to see continued in season 2. Regardless of whether her character grows even more unpredictable, she should definitely maintain her unique blend of eerie and amusing perspectives on life. One scene I particularly enjoy is when Tyler Galpin queries Wednesday Addams about her dislike for her birthday, suggesting it’s a day celebrating her since it’s “all about you.” She responds:

“Every day is about me. This one just comes with cake and a bad song.”

In another great scene, Wednesday also celebrates her unique personality and says:

“We’re original thinkers, intrepid outliers in this vast cesspool of adolescence.”

Although there’s much excitement surrounding the potential return of Wednesday for its second season, I believe it has the potential to match, if not surpass, the excellence of the first. However, it is crucial that the writers maintain the unique blend of sharp wit and chilling humor that defines the character of Ortega.
