Hundreds of cash-strapped players accept a strange invitation to participate in children’s games. Inside awaits a tempting prize with deadly high stakes: a survival game with a whopping 45.6 billion won at stake.. Check out our list of renewals and cancellations to see if your favorite show made it.. “Squid Game” creator Hwang Dong-hyuk developed the show in 2009. However, it was rejected by media companies and actors for 10 years.. All entries contain spoilers. Frontman: Player 456. Welcome back to the game.. Featured on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”: Sanjay Gupta/Denis Villeneueve (2021). After hearing about all the hype and seeing that it’s one of the most-watched series in the world, I finally found time to watch “Squid Game.” I have to admit that I enjoyed watching it and was very entertained throughout the season. It’s about hundreds of contestants (who are all down on their luck and need money) who are asked to play children’s games for a chance to win a big 45.6 billion won (about $33 million). The only problem is that these children’s games are now all deadly and the last contestant standing wins all the money. It will draw you into its world and before you know it, you’re hooked. It’s a thriller with lots of twists and turns and lots of violence. This show will stay with you long after you’ve finished watching it. I know it’s already been renewed for another season, so I hope they can keep the same magic as the first season. One Hundred Years of Solitude is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month. Check out our December calendar for more!
