Wednesday season 2 part 2 review: "Ortega shines, but it's a zombie who steals the entire show"

Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams, Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, Luis Guzman as Gomez Addams, and Isaac Ordonez as Pugsley Addams in Wednesday season 2 part 2.

The first four episodes of Wednesday season 2 were a bit too chaotic – which is saying a lot for a show that revolves around chaos, mayhem, and supernatural hijinks. Wednesday season 2 part 2, however, closes the book on all of those subplots (some of which were more unnecessary than others) and gets down to the real meat of the show, weaving in not one, but two family affairs and raising the stakes (and the dead) one last time. Though Jenna Ortega shines as everyone's favorite cello-playing goth…it's a zombie who steals the entire show.

As we saw in the first Wednesday season 2 part 2 trailer, Wednesday awakes from her coma. She doesn't get a moment of rest, however, because she opens her eyes and immediately walks into the spiritual manifestation of the office of none other than the recently deceased Larissa Weems (Gwendoline Christie), former principal of Nevermore Academy.
