There are only 4 episodes currently available for Wednesday Season 2 because Netflix chose to release the season in two parts. The first part, with 4 episodes, premiered on August 6, 2025, and the remaining 4 episodes will be released on September 3, 2025, making a total of 8 episodes for the season, just like Season 1. This split-season release strategy is used by Netflix to extend viewership engagement, build anticipation, and maintain subscriber interest over a longer period. The decision to split the season was made by Netflix, and it fits the storytelling needs well as the first part ends with a cliffhanger. This release pattern has been adopted for many other popular Netflix shows such as Stranger Things, Bridgerton, and Cobra Kai.
