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?

Its just a new tactics for Netflix. Squid Game 2 and 3 were also the same. They both had a great Season 1 so that everyone is longing for its sequel. Instead of making one sequel, Netflix decided to split it into two, so that they do not need to think a new story for the third season and can lock you in for the two seasons. It can have more guarantee on the viewership and to make the series mire sustainable.
