Just Half of ‘Wednesday’ Season 2 Has Already Matched Season 1’s Ratings
Netflix’s sophomore outing with the morbid and mesmerizing Wednesday Addams, portrayed by Jenna Ortega, has left viewers in a state of bewitchment. With the second installment of the show now out for five days, Variety reports that the streaming giant has already witnessed a ratings phenomenon – or should we say, abomination? – with half of Season 2 having matched Season 1’s remarkable performance.
According to official statistics, Wednesday Season two, part one has garnered an astonishing 50 million views in merely five days. This feat is nothing short of incredible, especially considering that the first season did not take long to rack up a substantial amount of viewership hours within its initial days of release. With this data at hand, it appears that Netflix’s bold decision to split the season into two parts has paid off, and the audience has responded positively.
Now that Lady Gaga is entering the fold in part two, her mysterious role and soundtrack contribution to Wednesday are likely to attract even more eyeballs. This development could lead to a surge in viewership hours for the show once its remaining episodes drop on September 3. With these figures, Netflix seems poised to surpass its original season’s success.
While fans eagerly await the conclusion of this dark yet captivating tale, it remains to be seen whether or not Lady Gaga will live up to expectations. Nevertheless, this early achievement is a testament to the power and allure that Netflix has become known for within the realm of television production.
The question now becomes: can Wednesday season two continue its impressive streak?
