The desperation builds in this first episode of this brilliant series. If you’re on the fence about whether the brutality of this show is too much, we hope to convince you that there’s a lot of gold to be mined with this show, and also that though the brutality is an essential part of it, it’s only one part of what makes Squid Game stand out. Join Jason, David, and Veronica as we talk it through!
Stay tuned to the end if you want to hear a spoilery segment talking about how some of the events in this episode relate to later episodes.
