Squid Game: The Challenge (reality version)
So many things are wrong with this show, which is an offshoot of Netflix’s monster-hit fictional series:
- The reality version panders to all of our baser instincts. It dangles a multi-million-dollar prize in front of contestants, then asks them to indulge their selfish sides to win the money.
- The challenges and tests are random and frequently unfair.
- The game design is often mean-spirited.
But oh, yes, the damn thing is also gripping and addictive.

From watching the trailer (not the film itself), this Daily Wire production looks like it might be quite the lame, stupid movie.
But I’m happy it exists.
Anything that triggers “snowflakes” on the left has to be a good thing.
