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?

The whole point of streaming was to binge a season, these companies are now releasing shows in 2 parts, weekly, random ads, multiple streaming sites all hoarding different movies and shows so you have to use them all!.. Might aswel just buy dvds at this rate or download or stream the shows illegally because they are starting to become a pisstake like satellite tv companies are.

A true bargain hunter knows the joy isn't in what you'll use, but in the thrill of the hunt, the deal and the nostalgia of the find. 

Enjoy your collection of future drink coasters and forgotten behind-the-scenes footage!😂🙃🤣
