Squid Game: The Challenge Fails To Impress Viewers, Fans Demands OG Show's 2nd Season Instead

The sequel to Hwang Dong-hyuk's 2021 South Korean viral series "Squid Game" has debuted on Netflix. But this isn't just another terrifying installment of the frightening survival drama in which participants are slaughtered in a gory, covert competition.

The 10-episode reality series "Squid Game: The Challenge" follows 456 real players as they compete for a $4.56 million cash prize while playing the same kid-friendly games—obviously here no one dies.
