Squid Game

Just finished watching season 2 - and a third must be in the pipeline!  An extraordinary programme and probably not to everyone's taste -  but compulsory viewing for us!  Any more fans around?

yeah I love it, I've watched up to S2E3 so far.

Apparently, Series 3 was filmed at the same time as Series 2 and will be released quite soon.

Mrs JtH and I binge-watched the programme over a cold and dreary weekend.

To digress: I haven't watched Squid Game, but if there was a section on AB called 'Netflix re-visited', I would add Bloodline.

We watched it ages ago and are watching it again (having forgotten most of the plot).

It's very good. Sam Shephard, Cissy Spacek. Well scripted, acted & directed.

Khandro - We felt Bloodline went on too long and meandered to an unsatisfactory conclusion.

Cissy Spacek was in a very interesting series on Amazon Prime called Night Sky. Unfortunately, it was cancelled after only one series which pretty much left every question unanswered but we enjoyed what we say.

jth : We are just coming to the end of season 1 & I see there are 2 seasons more so maybe you are right about it dragging.

We like the complicated character Danny. I said last night, he reminded me of what someone said of Errol Flynn; "You can always rely on Errol -- he will always let you down!"

As I'm obsessed wih South Korea we have decided we really have to watch this, starting from Series 1. May I ask, is it dubbed or subtitled on Netflix?

[naomi24]

It's dubbed, Prudie.

Just reviving this as we have just one more episode of season 2 to watch and then third and final season starts some time in June.

I've no idea why as I don't really like super violent and gory things but I have been totally hooked from the start. It's one of the weirdest but most compelling series I've ever seen, I actually put down my laptop to view it properly which is a rarity. Everything about it is wrong yet I'm completely reeled in by it.
