Highlights
- Fans hope Tyler will be a complex villain in Wednesday season 2, struggling between his evil side and normal self.
- Viewers want more exploration of Tyler’s past and childhood in Wednesday season 2, making him a compelling character.
- Despite his evil nature, fans wonder if Tyler can be redeemed in Wednesday season 2, hoping for a deeper storyline.
From the moment that Wednesday premiered on Netflix, viewers were drawn to thestory ofGoth teenager Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) and her time at Nevermore Academy. When Wednesday met Tyler Gaplin (Hunter Doohan), she was fascinated by him… but, sadly, later learned Tyler was the Hyde Monster terrorizing the school and the surrounding community. Since Wednesday and Tyler were romantically involved, this created a lot of tension.
When Wednesday season 2 is available for streaming on Netflix, fans hope that there will be more focus on Tyler’s background. While not every fan wants to see him and Wednesday be romantically involved again (and that might not be possible considering his evil personality), it’s interesting to reflect on what Tyler’s Wednesday season 2 storylines could focus on.
Fans Want To See Tyler In Wednesday Season 2
Several fans think that Tyler Galpin should be evil in Wednesday season 2. Redditor @MidnightComments shared in a Reddit thread that the character should “be fighting between his Hyde side and his normal side.” Redditor @HappyChaosoftheNorth also wants Tyler to be a villain They wrote:
“I hope that he would be more of a wild-card antagonist. Convince everyone that he’s got the Hyde under control, and they’re two separate personalities within him, maybe even convince Wednesday to help him, or convince her she’s his new master. But really Tyler and the Hyde are one and the same.”
Since fans will see more of the Addams Family in Wednesday season 2, it would also make sense to delve deeper into Tyler’s double life and two identities. This makes him an engaging character instead of another run-of-the-mill villain who is cruel but lacks other personality traits. Since he has already been set up as an evil character, it seems likely that his season 2 plotline will show him on another killing spree.
Despite Tyler’s evil nature and the fact that he terrorized the students of Nevermore, fans find him likable and wonder if he could be a nicer, more compassionate character in Wednesday season 2. Redditor @Syyymone suggested that Wednesday season 2 should explore Tyler’s connection to his mother. Since the focus has been on how he feels about his father, this is a smart idea that could work, even if it’s only a brief storyline. The fan wrote:
“I hope we see more backstory of Tyler’s mom maybe in season 2 if they continue his story line but I still just can’t really see a reason for Tyler to continue to hate Wednesday and everyone else now that his master is gone and he is free. Maybe he is too far gone but I hope he can have some redemption.”
While fans are torn about whether Tyler and Wednesday should date in Wednesday season 2, most agree that Tyler should be a focal point of the new episodes. The fun and memorable boarding school Nevermore will of course continue to be the main setting and Wednesday will try to find out who her stalker is. But the TV series also needs to share more of Tyler’s childhood and family life. If that can be done, then Wednesday season 2 will be satisfying.
What Happened To Tyler In Wednesday Season 1?
After being introduced as a kind resident of the town where Nevermore is located, which is near Jericho, Vermont, Tyler Galpin was revealed as the Hyde Monster. Fans learned that he doesn’t get along with his father Sheriff Donovan Galpin (Jamie McShane) and that he seems to be evil. Tyler and Wednesday also flirt and come close to starting a relationship, which is something that should be fixed in Wednesday season 2. Not everyone is sure that Wednesday should have love interests. Now that Tyler’s true self has been shared, he and Wednesday may still interact. However, she knows the truth about him now and likely isn’t interested anymore.
Since Tyler hides his real identity from Wednesday Addams and everyone around him, he’s a compelling villain who has some layers. In an interview with Metacritic, Hunter Doohan hinted that this dual personality might be part of Tyler’s story arc in Wednesday season 2. Doohan said:
“The way that we see Tyler in Episode 8, I think we would see more of that. Al and Miles have given me little clues, but honestly, they haven’t told me too much about what we would explore in Season 2.”
When answering a question about the person who is spying on Wednesday, which is how season 1 ended, Doohan said:
“Right now I’d say he’s the biggest threat to Wednesday and everyone at Nevermore because he clearly has some issues and now he’s even more pissed off!”
