Wednesday - A Hot New Netflix Watch
By Miriam Berman, Class of 2026
Netflix's new show Wednesday has taken the world by storm. Inspired by Tim Burton’s original film The Addams Family, the eight episodes have left viewers hungry for more. The series starts when a serious girl named Wednesday Addams (played by Jenna Ortega) gets expelled from her original school after a cruel prank, so she was moved to a boarding school that her parents attended, Nevermore Academy. Wednesday is a witty, dark, gothic, grim, daring, and very dignified young woman. She unravels a dark mystery involving the local town, her ancestors, herself, and a horrific monster together. Wednesday makes friends and enemies along the way.
The one and only season so far ended with a bang and a huge cliffhanger, leaving 150 million people eager for another set of episodes. In one of the last scenes of the last episode, Wednesday acquires an unknown stalker. If you haven’t already watched Wednesday, you definitely should. If you have, then stay tuned for season 2! Wednesday is a chilling series that will please anyone seeking a thrill!
