Green light! With 152.5 million total views, the second installment of “Squid Game” has become the third most-watched TV season on Netflix, trailing behind only its own first season (265 million) and “Wednesday” (252 million).

This observation brought to you by musing on the streamer’s latest effort to hype up Squid Game 2, the second season of its South Korean murder game import, which Netflix would like you to know an unbelievable number of people have watched.

An intriguing aspect of the second season of the hit Netflix series "Squid Game" is its use of traditional children's games as challenges, several of which are similar to the ones I played as a child in Iran such as paengi chigi (top spinning), gonggi (jacks), biseok chigi (rock throwing or kicking) and Red Light, Green Light.
