What Emma Myers' Comments Mean For Wednesday Season 2
The Returning Show Has A Huge Benchmark To Meet
Responsible for accumulating 1 billion viewing hours by December 2022,the response to the streaming release ofWednesdayseason 1 was overwhelmingly positive.

Building on the precedent set by season 1’s monumental success, the weight of expectations being placed onWednesdayseason 2are enormous. Not only does the new season need to contend with the controversial departure of Percy Hynes White, butOrtega has already hinted that the new season will seek to distance itself from the romantic themes of season 1in favor of a greater emphasis on horror elements.
