After really enjoying the first season of Squid Game I was very worried there would be a dip in quality going into season two. Now, I've only watched this episode so I can't speak for the rest of the season, but this episode? Damn... after the initial scene which picks up directly where we left off, we get a three year time jump to catch us up to present day and the tone takes a slight shift back into the slightly lighter tone that was present in the opening episode of the series. Don't let this fool you. This episode takes a turn and it's harsh. Brilliant, but harsh. I'm not going to dive into spoilers as I think these early episodes should always be left as at least a bit of a surprise but in summary? Squid Game is back.

9/10.
