Reply to ‘Shadow And Bone’ Season 2 Debuts At No. 2 On Netflix Top 10; Korean Drama ‘The Glory’ Is Most-Viewed Title For Second Week by HumanOrAlien
Started it yesterday and i gotta say episode one of The Glory was kinda hard to stomach, just a warning for sensitive folks out there, heavy trigger warning for that one.
When it comes to Shadow and Bone, I'm very disappointed. A season that's horribly paced, should've been at least 2 seasons, it just rushes from scene to scene, so everything feels kinda shallow. Wouldn't be surprised if the creators feared the "Netflix Classic".

Reply to Alice in Borderland by EkaterinaGagutlova
Word of mouth gives this show a lot of more traction now, i think. It's really good and deserves a little bit more hype but maybe that's a good thing, so Netflix can't ruin it with forced extra seasons the show doesn't need.
While i understand the comparison with Squid Game, i would like for people to drop it, yes both shows have games for life and death but that's about it.
Squid Game had the perfect storm, while Alice in Borderland is almost a hidden gem still but again, i doubt it will stay that way because social media seems to be pushing it a little since season 2 hit.
I'm happy with the 2 seasons we got, especially because it was a show wich respected the source material, wich is like seeing a unicorn.
I really hope Netflix keeps their hands off of the franchise and gives the team behind it freedom and budget to do whatever they want.
Realistically though, they will just produce a shit U.S. version, so Bill from Texas can watch it without thinking to hard about Japanese names. (no disrespect towards people named Bill, cool name actually)

I only watched the first two episodes, E2 was fine but E1 has >!heavy bullying, violent torture, sexual assault, a physically violent teacher and several suicide thoughts/attempts!<
I'm definitely not a person who gets triggered easily or at all actually but I was shocked by how rough the first episode was.
