What to Watch on OTT

Squid Game S3 Talk: Netflix Ruined a Blockbuster?

When Squid Game was first released on Netflix in 2021, it wasn’t just a show it was a game changer. A social commentary wrapped in a survival game.

This new approach left a mark on audiences and critics alike, Season 1 ended on a haunting note, leaving space for interpretation, conversation, and legacy.

Without dragging the series for three seasons if it would have ended with the first season, then it would have been a milestone.

But with the arrival of Season 2, the charm started to fade. Instead of diving deep into the storyline or exploring fresh psychological traumas, the sequel gravitated heavily on the formula that once worked.

What was once a bold take and thought provoking story started to feel repetitive and uninspired.

The finale of Squid Game Season 2 attempted to wrap things up, but it only cemented the decline.

What started as a brutal critique of capitalism became more like a dramatized cash grab, losing the very essence that made the original season special.

With the third season of Squid Game Season 3, it is only another repetitive story which kept coming back although audiences liked the heart touching ending but it could be summed up in the first season.

Unfortunately, the finale now feels more like a footnote than a full stop.
