The controversial ‘Squid Game’ reality show is here & it’s loaded with gays to root/thirst for
Squid Game: The Challenge.Okay, we’re being a little harsh. But the thing is, when the streamer announced it was making a reality competition show based off the global smash hit series from South Korea, nobody expected much of it.After all, the original Squid Game was a highly entertaining and wickedly clever takedown of the evils of capitalism, and yet here was Netflix cashing in by pitting 456 real people against each other for a $4.56 million cash prize just because they could.
Talk about empty calories! (And that’s to say nothing of the reported on-set conditions, which sounded less than ideal.)The thing is, Squid Game: The Challenge is actually a pretty fun time—or at least one that’s no more soulless or shameless than countless other “reality” TV offerings these days—as track-suited contestants try to outwit, outplay, and outlast the others through challenges pulled from the drama series with a few other twists in store.(Don’t worry: the fierce “Red Light, Green Light” robo-doll is back—and she’s a serving!)In a savvy move, the streamer premiered the first five episodes of the competition just in time for the long holiday weekend, and it quickly became the #1 trending show on the platform.
That also gave folks at home plenty of time to get caught up so they could fire up their hottest of takes for the internet…squid game challenge is unfortunately good pic.twitter.com/UGZQ49h4aeMe watching players get eliminated on Squid Game The Challenge cause they can’t pick a damn shape #SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/Lmrg9i9OGkThis Squid Game The Challenge got me all invested and stressed out.

In fact, an impressive number of contestants on the show are part of the LGBTQ+ community—some of whom are doing quite well in the competition thus far.After getting engaged last year, Joe Moskowitz and Ian Todd are traveling the world together on the new.
