Missing Squid Game? Here's your next binge watch

  If you're all done with Squid Game & wondering what to watch that's in a similar vein, then give Alice In Borderland a go. It's a Japanese series based on a Manga comic, with two seasons available on Netflix & a third coming in September. It has Squid Game vibes with a sci-fi twist & so far, it has a new game played out in each episode, all of which are scary & exciting. It is also quite gory in places. 

  We're on S1 E6, so quite new to it, even though S1 aired on NF at the end of 2020 ( 9 months before Squid Game in fact ), but we're really enjoying it. Well worth watching.

  I was wondering if anyone has watched this show. We finished S2 last night & both seasons have been brilliant, it's one of the best foreign series we've seen on Netflix ( I notice that other platforms are starting their own Asian catalogue now, no doubt after seeing how popular they are on NF ). Thankfully, as we came to AIB late, we only have to wait a week before S3 starts, rather than 3 years for those who watched it when it first aired. Anyway, I definitely recommend this if you haven't seen it yet.
