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?

If the first four episodes are out, then wouldn't part two be episodes five through eight?

Anyway, this isn't even the first time they've done this? They did it with Lucifer, too, so it's hardly new. I just wait until both parts are released of a series I want to watch before watching it because ain't no way I'm waiting a whole month for the rest of a season (looking at you, Stranger Things season 5).

Hahaha, yeah thanks. Correction made. Waiting is cool too.

I've never seen Lucifer once it was cancelled on TV. I'm just a casual fan. I felt forced to watch on TV but the benefit of streaming I've got other options.
