SQUID GAME !!

SQUID GAME - SEASON 1


Wasn't it bound to happen? Squid Game is not only one of Netflix's newest shows, but it's also on course to become the streaming service's most popular. This South Korean drama, directed by Hwang Dong-hyuk, depicts a group of indebted individuals who are invited to participate in a secret survival game.


But, given the fanfare that has erupted around the performance, you presumably already knew that. Squid Game, like Bong Joon-Parasite ho's before it, uses class division as a trigger for violence, satirizing reality television by pitting 456 competitors against each other in a series of kid-friendly games with lethal twists. It obviously prioritizes stereotypes. A series that is capable of getting your undivided attention...Watch closely as you don't want to miss this.

Locke and Key

Netflix’s  loose adaptation of Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez’s beloved comic-book series  Locke & Key  has had fun all season with the magical keys that keep dropping into the lives of its main characters. The arrival of a new key into the hands of the Locke children can fundamentally shift what it is they’re facing and their ability to deal with it, so understanding them is key (sorry) to unlocking (sorry again) the show’s plot. After a shocking act of self-immolation (explained far later in the series), the pilot begins with the Locke family — mother Nina (Darby Stanchfield), teens Tyler (Connor Jessup) and Kinsey (Emilia Jones), plus Bode (Jackson Robert Scott) in elementary school — leaving Seattle after a horrifying family tragedy to move to the ancestral home of deceased patriarch Rendell (Bill Heck, in a lot of flashbacks) on a remote part of coastal Massachusetts.
