Netflix has officially renewed the hit reality series Squid Game: The Challenge for Season 2, despite the fact that the first season has not yet concluded. The show has already generated plenty of drama, with missing players and questionable in-game behavior keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.
The eagerly anticipated finale of Squid Game: The Challenge Season 1 will air tonight at 9pm in the US and 2am in the UK. Fans will have to wait a little longer to find out who will emerge victorious. Additionally, viewers can look forward to binge-watching the series all over again with the announcement of Season 2.
Squid Game: The Challenge renewed for Season 2
Netflix has officially given the green light to Squid Game: The Challenge Season 2, according to reports.
"We didn't hesitate to give the green light for season two of Squid Game: The Challenge," stated Brandon Riegg, Netflix's VP of Nonfiction Series. "It's the most ambitious unscripted show we've launched at Netflix."
"We are thrilled to collaborate with our Korean team and the producers at Studio Lambert and The Garden to extend the Squid Game franchise with this exciting competition series."
"The first season has already achieved the number one spot on Netflix's Top 10 English TV list for the weeks of November 20 and 27, and has appeared on the Top 10 chart in 93 countries."
The decision to renew the Squid Game reality show comes amidst numerous players sharing their Season 1 experiences. Some contestants are considering a lawsuit against the show for their alleged suffering while on set, and the series has faced backlash from audience members. It is uncertain if Season 2 will follow the same format as its first season, featuring popular games such as Red Light, Green Light and Dalogna.
One viewer expressed their disapproval of creating a reality show based on the original, but also acknowledged that it is a top-notch reality/competition show. Another viewer threatened to riot if the second season of the reality show comes out before the next season of the original show.
Now casting for Season 2 of Squid Game: The Challenge is now open at SquidGameCasting.com. Catch all episodes of Season 1 on Netflix and explore our additional coverage below.
Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I have mixed feelings about the renewal of Squid Game: The Challenge for Season 2. On the one hand, I understand the appeal of the show and why it has become so popular. The concept is unique and engaging, and the games are both exciting and suspenseful. I also appreciate the show's commentary on social class and inequality.
On the other hand, I have some concerns about the show's ethics. The first season was marred by reports of contestant mistreatment, and it's unclear whether these issues have been adequately addressed for Season 2. I also worry that the show's popularity could lead to copycat incidents in real life. Overall, I think Squid Game: The Challenge is a well-made and entertaining show, but I hope that Netflix takes steps to ensure that the safety and well-being of the contestants are prioritized in Season 2.
In addition to my concerns about the show's ethics, I also think it's important to consider the impact that Squid Game: The Challenge could have on the original Squid Game series. The original show was a critical and commercial success, and it's possible that the reality show could overshadow it. I would hate to see the original Squid Game be forgotten in the wake of its reality show spin-off.
