In a saturated streaming market of tired spinoffs and even more tired remakes, Squid Game hit our screens last September with all the power of a bullet fired by a creepy animatronic doll. The Korean drama not only swept the world with its merciless depiction of a reality TV show that was a fight to the death, it also got grown adults interested in playing games for elementary schoolers (usually without the threat of impending assassination, though).
It didn't take long for the series to become the most successful Netflix show of all time. It's no surprise, then, that the program has not only been renewed for another season, but its producers are bringing to life a real version of the game show to our screens as well. Not only does this mean double the entertainment, it will undoubtedly produce double the memes, just in case we hadn't got our fill from all the binge watching that is going to occur. However, for now we're just going to have to make do with these classics inspired by the original.
