I don’t know about you, but I thought that Netflix picked up Squid Game for another season a long time ago. It turns out they didn’t. However, this weekend the streaming service made it official that it is happening.
A WHOLE NEW ROUND IS COMING
It took 12 years to bring the first season of ‘Squid Game to life last year. But it took 12 days for ‘Squid Game’ to become the most popular Netflix series ever.
As the writer, director, and producer of ‘Squid Game, a huge shout out to fans around the world. Thank you for watching and loving our show.
And now, Gi-hun returns The Front Man returns. Season 2 is coming. The man in the suit with ddakji might be back. You’ll also be introduced to Young-hee’s boyfriend, Cheol-su..
Join us once more for a whole new round.

Netflix didn’t say when we will get the second season, but they better hurry up, or we will go all Squid Game on them.
On January 9th, Bob Saget passed away suddenly from a head injury. Netflix wanted to honor the comedian, so they called up his best friends who were already doing that.
On June 10th, John Stamos, Jeff Ross, Chris Rock, Jim Carrey, John Mayer, Darren Criss, Kelly Rizzo-Saget, Mike Binder, Jackson Browne, Seth Green, Mike Young, Michael Keaton, Candace Cameron Bure, Dave Coulier, Dave Chappelle, Tim Allen, Paul Rodriguez, Jon Lovitz, and his daughters Lara and Aubrey Saget will roast him in Dirty Daddy: A Tribute to Bob Saget.
While they might not be saying the most positive things about the Full House dad, I think we can all agree that is how he would’ve wanted it.
So over the weekend, I was thinking when is Netflix going to give us an update on Manifest. You know, since they saved the series after NBC cancelled it?
Well, I guess they were listening to my thoughts because they released a clip from the final season today at Geeked Week.
The streaming service didn’t say when we will get new episodes, but they did say, “The passengers of Flight 828 don’t know what’s about to hit them.”
Now, I definitely need a premiere date because I need to know what is going to hit them.
Over the weekend, a record amount of us spent the weekend watching new episodes of Stranger Things on Netflix. And there were a lot of fans who have their theories about what is going to happen next.
Those fans took to social media with their ideas, Vanity Fair took those theories, and they asked Joe Keery (Steve), Natalia Dyer (Nancy), Maya Hawke (Robin), and Joseph Quinn (Eddie Munson) to tell us what they think about the fanfic.
Out of all of the theories, my favorite one is that the core characters are playing a game of Dungeon & Dragons as adults. It is especially more telling because they played the game this season. Therefore, I can totally see that being the case.
I also like Quinn’s questioning about who would play who in the future, our present. I agree that Bill Hader should play Finn, and Natalie Portman would be great as Eleven. I think that Dulé Hill would be a great Lucas, Josh Gad as Dustin, Jessica Chastain would be a great Max, and Ryan Reynolds as Will.
When it comes to Eddie, I think he looks and acts like Treat Willaims in Hair and sounds like Jason Bateman, so either can play him. Who would you cast as their future/present selves?
Rebel Wilson has a new movie out today, and Senior Year is streaming on Netflix. The film gets an A+ from me!
Wilson is playing Stephanie, a senior in high school. Wait, how can she play someone in high school? It is because back when she was a senior, one of her cheerleading stunts went wrong, and she spent the next 20 years in a coma.
So, when she finally wakes up, she still feels like a teenager. Therefore, she wants to finish her final year in high school so that she can be Prom Queen.
A lot has changed since 2002. Things are a lot more PC, and her best friend, Martha (Mary Holland), is the principal of the school, and she is as PC as they get. So much so that she got rid of cheerleading as it was and Prom Kings and Queens.
Stephanie is going to do everything in her power to get both of those back to how they were 20 years ago. But, it is a different world, and she has to learn to play the game.
One of the things she has to do is get Brie (Jade Bender) on her side. The only problem is Brie is the daughter of her archnemesis Tiffany (Zoe Chao) and her former boyfriend Blane (Justin Hartley). Tiffany still hates Stephanie, and the feeling is mutual.
Luckily, Stephanie still has her other best friend, Seth (Sam Richardson), to help her have the perfect Senior Year. Can they do it? You just have to watch this sweet movie that is a throwback to all the great coming of age movies from the ’90s.
Angourie Rice, who plays teenage Stephanie, is perfect in the role. She even does the thing that Wilson does with her hair. What thing? When you see it, you will know.
Actually, everyone is great in this film. This is the perfect movie to Netflix & Chill with because it makes you want to go back to high school, and it doesn’t make you want to do it at the same. Plus, it is so super fun, and who doesn’t want to relax with something fun?
