It's been a long wait for fans of Wednesday, the Netflix show based on the Addams Family's eldest child. After its successful debut, Netflix's Head of US & Canada Peter Friedlander has expressed his optimism for a second season. While at present, Wednesday has only been commissioned for one season, its creators are considering a potential second.

Wednesday Addams is proving to be the authentic female protagonist that we all need in the relatively new Netflix Series- Wednesday. We have seen the development of several strong female protagonists in the past decade across different movies and series. Katniss Everdeen taught us to stand up for injustice. Hermione Granger taught us to embrace our intelligence. And Arya Stark taught us to be strong, skilled and resilient. Wednesday embodies much of the 21st-century portrayals of females in media. But makes Wednesday the Ultimate female protagonist of the year?
