A 'limited series', a full dump, a two-episode starter then weekly... or even three days a week for a fortnight — there's many ways our favourite prestige television shows are served to us these days. So before you leap into Wednesday season two, you might want to know what to expect (from the release schedule at least).

Well, like the titular character herself, things aren't as you'd expect for a show on Netflix, which traditionally dumps a whole series in one, at the forefront of the 'binge-watching' movement when it comes to TV watching.

When do new episodes of Wednesday season two come out?

Netflix has opted to split Wednesday season two into two halves, across August and September.

Part one, spanning episodes one to four, started airing on Wednesday August 6. After what we presume will be some kind of terrible cliffhanger, we'll have to wait until Wednesday September 3 for the second load of four more episodes.

It marks a departure for the show - and perhaps a sign of how its popularity has elevated it to star status: the first series, which aired in November 2022, was dropped all at once.

The series will find Wednesday returning to school, Nevermore (though with no Xavier, played by Percy Hynes White), and, of course, wrapped up in another supernatural mystery.

'Wednesday goes into this season thinking she knows Nevermore,' co-creators, showrunners and executive producers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar tell Tudum. 'But as soon as she returns, nothing happens the way she’s expecting. She thinks she’s going to be in control, that she knows where all the bodies are buried, but she doesn’t. Nothing is what it seems in Season two.'

This season a series of new characters and actors will join the show too - including British stars Joanna Lumley and Billie Piper.

We cannot wait.
