News Article "The Internet tantrums have begun." -Thanks to Netflix's New split release model.

One common point of contention among both critics and viewers of the new season of Wednesday is Netflix's decision to split the release into two parts. As the first four episodes set up a satisfying new mystery, many feel the mid-season cutoff is abrupt and disrupts the show's momentum, leaving viewers with an "unsatisfying appetizer" rather than a complete meal.

"Fans will have to wait until Wednesday, Sept. 3, for Wednesday Season 2, Part 2 – which will conclude with episodes five through eight."

With so many taking it to the Internet streets; Is the uproar warranted? Or are we just spoiled brats moonlighting as binge divas?

You think they’d lose subscribers with once a week episodes? I guess if the show sucks, maybe. But I feel like if people just sign up for Wednesday, they are gonna stick with it

It's obviously because its so good. Do you think we would have all this uproar if the season 2 sucked?

I didn't see it, hear any reviews about it or see any "uproar" so idk. Honestly I found out that it is out because of this post. You'd think a weekly episode release would play into the always leave them wanting more approach than 2x4 episode release
