"Squid Game" Season 3 has become the third most-watched non-English language series in Netflix history in its second week on the streamer.

    Definitely not as good as season 1. It was simply ‘alright’. But then again I skipped all the boring cop investigation parts just as I did in seasons 1-2. My opinion of the show would have been much lower had I been forced to watch those parts.

      I watched them, and yes they were consistently the most boring scenes. The worst part is that they amounted to nothing.

      Thr detective stuff was interesting in season 1 but there never really was a payoff. No indication of why the brother went to that side or anything.

      I’ve only watched the first season, but the VIPs dialog and acting were the worst part about that one. Crazy that they didn’t fix that issue even in season 3

      I want to believe the writers purposely did that to make the VIPs as unrelatable and inhuman as possible.

      This is a common complaint. I read somewhere that they dubbed over them with a Korean speaking English instead of just using the original audio. Some blamed this on Netflix because the pirate sites had the original tracks. No idea how true that is.
