Reasons which make Squid Game The Challenge the hate-watched series

Unpredictable

The only thing that saves the series and has fans waiting eagerly for the second part in December is how unpredictable it is. Like no one really is the boss here making it look unscripted and unbiased towards any participant. You think a contestant is doing well and about to go to the finals one minute, and then you see them unexpectedly eliminated the next. Here you are at the show, welcome.

It’s intriguing

It’s interesting to watch Squid Game transition from fiction to reality by including real people in the game instead of fictional characters. judgment-makers in Squid Game: The Challenge seems to have made a questionable verdict that is out of touch. Picture yourself expecting a show criticizing death games, only to discover a contest that recreated Hwang’s idea without the mass killing and a good deal of social criticism

Because it is the sequel to Squid Game

In simpler terms, the series’ major appeal stems from its association with the highly successful original. Basically, when people say, “It’s all about light-hearted series with some good fun and game” to defend The Challenge against criticism for copying the violence in Squid Game, it doesn’t give us a good reason to look at some of the bad things about the show.
