In its first week, WednesdayNetflix beats StrangerThings' record for the streamer's biggest opening for an English language series with 341.2 million hours of viewing.
The Addams Family spinoff show Wednesday has set a new Netflix viewership record, breaking the previous record held by the streaming platform's mega-hit show Stranger Things. The new series, based around the character of Wednesday Addams, is the first live-action installment in The Addams Family franchise since The New Addams Family TV series, which ran from October 1998 to August 1999.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY According to THR, Wednesday enjoyed the biggest ever opening week for an English language series in Netflix history, overtaking the previous record set by ratings behemoth Stranger Things. The series racked up a staggering 341.2 million hours of viewing globally during its opening week, beating the previous 335 million hours set by Stranger Things season 4. Despite this, the total remains short of the all-time opening week record of 571.
Critical and fan reception to Wednesday has been largely positive. Ortega's lead performance has earned much praise, as has the supporting turns from Gwendoline Christie, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday Addams in the original 1991 movie, The Addams Family, and its sequel. Hollywood director Tim Burton also directs the opening four episodes of the series.
This Means We're Getting Wednesday Season 2, Right? All of this should point definitively in the direction of a series renewal, and though nothing has been confirmed yet, Wednesday season 1 ended with plenty of story threads that could be explored in a second season. In fact, co-showrunner Miles Millar has already discussed a potential Wednesday season 2 and what storylines could be explored should the series be picked up for another season.
