The post Here’s ‘Wednesday’ Season 2’s Surprising Rotten Tomatoes Score appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

It’s official, the first half of Wednesday season 2 has arrived after a lengthy wait, though there will of course be another month-long wait for the second batch of four episodes. Thanks Netflix! Very cool! For whatever reason, the embargo did not lift on reviews until pretty much the show was live, and now we know what critics are thinking about season 2 of Wednesday. And judging by the show’s current Rotten Tomatoes score, I’m a bit surprised to see that it’s gone up season over season. It’s easy for a show to be something of a one-hit wonder when it comes to critical acclaim. Squid Game, for instance, had a 95% season 1, an 84% season 2 and an 80% season 3, a slow decline. But right now, Wednesday’s score has gone up from a 73% in season 1 to an 82% in season 2, indicating that at least for critics, there’s been some measure of improvement. For season 1, I thought that score was a dramatic underestimate, and so did audiences, given the records it set for the service. Right now it’s too early to judge audience scores. After 5,000 ratings, Wednesday season 1 had an 85%. Right now on Rotten Tomatoes it has a 69%, but there are less than 50 reviews in and I have some pretty strong doubts that all that many people watched all the episodes already. The larger question is whether or not Wednesday can hit the insane viewership highs of season 1 here in season 2. We have seen many shows grow year-over-year on Netflix like Stranger Things and Bridgerton. But again, Squid Game, though it still put up big numbers, did not surpass the records of season 1. If I had to guess, I think Wednesday season 2 probably won’t do…
