8.1 isn't a terrible rating so I don't know why everyone's saying it's underrated. Most shows are blown out of proportion for ratings on here and I feel like this one is pretty well balanced.
In my opinion it fell extremely flat after a certain point. It was going really well and then the Woman became the focal point of the whole plot that was going on and it ruined the show for me. Her character was boring, made two faces the whole time and it turned into a milking a past trauma instead of a dark thriller with people getting their dues from causing harm in a sadistic way for fun. Her scenes were extremely painful and slogish to get through as well. She couldn't hold my attention.
Everyone else was doing much better than her unfortunately, and then the "twist" is that the whole reason I've been watching this is because she wants revenge... For something that happened years ago. It would've been better if everyone was getting Karma for this current situation and the mess it created in the past couple weeks. That way, they'd all be connected for the same reasons.
I was waiting for her to get it at the end but she never did, which seems highly unfair because speaking of what she did to other people, she's no different than them. It would've been more satisfying if she thought she got her revenge on them Scott free but then was handed her own share of Karma. I was honestly waiting for her to get hit by a car in that ending shot, when she didn't I felt I had wasted all my time watching this.
whattt I'm finding every other sept - oct dramas so good 😭
Ohhh I see, I'm glad some of those are good and are an option to choose from! Yeah I'm more into thrillers but if it's a mixed genre I can get behind anything haha
I went in with low expectations and actually really loved it. Went into some of the Military abuse issues without showing too much but just enough to get their point across. Lots of the stuff taking place is the main character journeying around looking for D.P's.
The last episode of Season 1 was extremely good and the acting performances are forever burned into my brain.
Season 2 is watchable and goes along with it but the main character is a little more absent in a few ways. Still well worth a watch though, only a bit behind season 1 for how good it was.
This show had a huge potential which it didn’t explore, leaving me frustrated after it ended. It feels like…
Probably because they didn't want to show too much onscreen abuse than they already did. I had the same thoughts at first but it makes sense, a lot is implied, some is shown but not too much. Might make it too heavy, especially for the people who went through Military abuse.
I'm not familiar with business terms or being an office worker, but this is a life changing drama no matter what. So if you're hesitant thinking it may be boring or not your thing, give it a go! Can't stop thinking about it.
I found this series really predictable. The twists and the ending especially. The way the characters were killed…
My exact thoughts. Not to mention they would introduce a characters whole backstory to simply kill them off 20 minutes into an episode while trying to make the death seem impactful, but we barely got to know any of these one offs so it wasn't a big deal if one got killed. No emotional attachment. I didn't really care who died besides a select few lol could just be me though.
You're not quite right. The manga has a sequel. They just refined this very sequel to make it a full season. Judging…
You're more than welcome to have your own opinion, so that's totally cool.
I already saw this coming because you've been fighting and debating every comment, which, more power to you haha you're entitled to your opinion just as much as I am. I hope you enjoy the new season!

It does have a sequel but the first two seasons in and of themselves were a closed story. We figure out what was happening, they wake up etc. it was solved perfectly at the end. So to me personally, it feels unnecessary. This is my opinion on it. Not bashing the actors or anything like you're making it sound like I'm doing lol enjoy your favorite show by all means 😁
Since Season 2 ends how the Manga does, not that people don't want more Alice in Borderland and to see more daring games, but this is totally unnecessary. Especially since the source material is already over. It's not like Squid Game where there's always room for more world building, storytelling and important messages to be told and wasn't based off of a set piece.
And they will more than likely kill off the main characters because why bring back the show at all? I'm betting he's dying. I just have a bad feeling the ending will more than likely be disappointing one way or another.
Also, I know having no Chisiya is logical, but he carried the show for me. He was smart, manipulative, didn't give two craps about anything attitude and was knocking out card games like they were a walk in the park.
So basically:
Everything ends up fine = rehash for no reason other than a cash grab.
Someone important dies = reason for the season existing but disappointing ending and ruins the rest of it.
I can't be the only one who feels this way can I? Lol
The review bombing is getting out of hand. This deserves at least an 8.7 and that's no lie.
All the seasons were wonderful and the third season was beautifully tragic. Who seriously watched Squid Game and didn't expect "their favorites" to die? Have 90% of you lost your minds...? Just asking, because I can't wrap my head around why anyone would logically think that.
The writing is literally no different as the first season in quality. Y'all are overreacting, acting like this is Sweet Home seasons 2&3 2.0
The Director told you it was going to be bleak, don't watch it then if that's not what's to be expected for SQUID GAME, my gosh.
I feel bad for the poor writer, everyone extremely missing the point and trashing it for no logical reason. People are simply biased towards season 1 and didn't want to give anything else a chance.
Did you even see the acting performances in the end episode? That was one of the best I've ever seen in ANY show in any language.
And using Squid Game to turn it into a Man bashing fest and why Women shouldn't trust Men is absolutely disgusting behavior. Shame on the people who are continually doing this. Unhinged stupidity.
Gi Hun is a hypocrite, first he doesn't care about his own daughter but decides to protect and die for a damn…
That's because humans are deeper than black and white. You never know what someone may do when pushed to the brink.
Who says he doesn't care about his own daughter? He obviously was wanting to be with her but he couldn't let the games continue and hurt more people.
After Jung baes death Gi Hun had a mental breakdown, wasn't in his right mind after so many traumatic events took place (losing multiple friends, first game and then Jung bae) and needed someone to blame, that's why he did what he did to Dae ho. He indefinitely felt awful about it afterwards once he realized, and even put the blame on himself and tried to kill himself.
He made some mistakes along the way but made the right choice in the end.
Him taking care of Jun hee and the baby was him trying to make up for being absent in his daughters life, and finally for once be the Father he's wanted to be. The kiss to the baby at the end felt like a final goodbye to his daughter just as much as to the baby.
Imo Season 3 was the best season. It raised questions and discussions about humanity, and the lengths people can…
The only deep comment here that understood the show. Everyone missed the point. It was thrilling from start to finish as well. I'm usually picky about what they do with endings, but this was the right choice whether people like it or not.
Watched a couple episodes a while ago and forgot to come back as I went and watched Vincenzo, out of the blue I was like "There's that guy that got locked in the closet and shushed with a pain relief patch!" LOL
I think maybe is the translation? i watched it just in Korean and it is nothing like you describe it. Plus the…
Yeah it definitely is a translation problem for some of it haha but those burgers look 100% like something an AI machine would create due to the unnatural movements and a burger having nothing to do with the show. This is a Disney+ show and Disney has admitted to using AI recently so I wouldn't be surprised.

Stupid stupid ending lol
This one seems like it could be okay if it's done properly. Hopefully it's decent, i have low expectations but I'll give it a go I suppose lol

Suddenly disappeared and is absolutely nowhere to watch.
