Ep. 50 - 'Squid Game' Season 2 Is a Worthy Follow-Up, But Where's Season 3?

Decoding TV

It’s a recap-only episode of the podcast as Patrick and David dive into the latest episode of Skeleton Crew and finish their conversation about Squid Game season 2.

Why does Skeleton Crew keep insisting on splitting up Jude Law and the kids? Does the show’s After School Special mentality work in the universe of Star Wars? Does Squid Game season 2 feel like a cash grab? Or does it actually have something to say? And what are our thoughts on where things ended and the plotlines open for season 3? Listen to hear us discuss all these questions and more.
