Of course Squid Game, an inspired television series that makes commentary on competition itself, would get the most uninspired reality knock-off bearing its own name and cheapening the brand in kind.
This show feels like an AI-generated sewage pipe of been-there-done-that tropes that other shows of its ilk have infested the tv landscape with. It's an insult to modern television itself.
This could be labeled ANY other title under the sun and it'd still suck by any known metric of quality. This category of tv CAN be good when you've got the occasional Kitchen Nightmares episode having Gordon Ramsay have a real-life story of persistence reflect itself with a fulfilling outcome, but where is that fulfilment here? Even with shows like Kitchen Nightmares being diamonds in the rough (somewhat), there's still awful episodes in shows like it.
I'm probably being relentless here with my take in this show here, and I'm sorry, but it's honestly how I feel about it and reality tv itself as a 'medium'. When it's good it's watchable, but when it's not, it's like a documentary made of diarrhoea and no solid story.
0/10 IMDb points. 0/5 stars. I know it's officially 1/10 here because of the review score, but my god is this placeholder sludge at its worst.
