'It's a hell of a ride!' Your favourite shows like Squid Game
Squid Game is back for a third season, and fans are no doubt binge-watching the hit Korean drama at breakneck speed. Which means many will already be looking for a similarly high-stakes, morally complex series to watch next. And while reality shows like Netflix's Squid Game: The Challenge and MrBeast's Beast Games have tried to capture the essence, the Squid Game creator has admitted they leave a 'bitter taste'. Fortunately, the world of streaming is rich with gripping K-dramas and survival thrillers that scratch the same itch — and several viewers have taken to Reddit to share their favourite Squid Game alternatives. Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. A user calling themselves ed_five suggested Netflix drama The 8 Show. Explaining the premise, they wrote: 'Eight people agree to a game show where they don't know the rules. I have to warn you, it gets very dark.' And TommyRobotX added of the Korean series: 'Despite the lower stakes, they somehow made it harder to watch (anxiety) than Squid Game.' Meanwhile, Dazzling_Pipe_9910 also mentioned The 8 Show, but preferred revenge thriller The Glory. They said: 'I watched The 8 Show and The Glory after Season 2 of Squid Game…The Glory is definitely worth watching and has left a lasting impression. I'd recommend.' Another user, Pettyyoungthing, suggested Alice in Borderland, which proved to be a huge hit on Netflix when it was first released in 2020. They explained: '[It's a] Japanese show where [people] get stuck in a mix of Hunger Games and Squid Game type scenario. Hijinx ensue'. And ChattyWalker suggested dark thriller Bargain, on Paramount Plus, writing: 'It's a hell of a ride! Only 6 episodes, unfortunately, but a nice binge.' One user suggested 3%, a Brazilian series available on Netflix. Explaining the plot, they wrote: 'The majority of the population live on the improvised 'inland' and, at the age of 20, people compete to become the 3% of humanity that gets to live in the affluent 'offshore' community.' A K-drama that's received lots of comparisons to Squid Game, The 8 Show focuses on eight strangers, each facing serious financial trouble, who agree to join a dangerous reality TV show as a way of earning money. Reviews are mixed, with the show earning a respectable 75% score on Rotten Tomatoes from the critics, compared to a 66% Audience Score. One impressed audience member wrote: 'I watched the entire series in 24 hours, a first for me. I found it impossible to stop watching. The cliffhangers were great, the suspense was at a fever pitch, and the social commentary was spot on. Good comic relief as well. Highly recommend.' Another said: 'Excellent show! Every episode is unexpected and surprising. A more deep and shocking Squid Game. This show will make you reflect on the society and on human nature.' Where to watch: Stream all eight episodes on Netflix. Years after surviving being brutally bullied in high school, teacher Moon Dong-eun devises a calculated plan to make her abusers pay for what they did, unravelling their now successful lives from within. The Glory received praise from critics, with the San Francisco Chronicle writing in their review: 'Visually arresting and carefully constructed, The Glory sharpens its central theme to a fine point.' Audiences were also impressed, with viewers taking to Rotten Tomatoes to hail The Glory as 'captivating', 'beautiful' and 'a slow-burn masterpiece'. Where to watch: Stream all 16 episodes on Netflix. This Japanese sci-fi series follows 'an aimless gamer and his two friends [who] find themselves in a parallel Tokyo, where they're forced to compete in a series of sadistic games to survive'. The show, which has been compared to Squid Game in the past and even achieved a higher Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes, has proved itself a hit with both fans and critics. 'This sprawling Japanese manga adaptation is rarely subtle, but its ability to deliver on wide-scale expectations make it a true TV standout,' IndieWire wrote in a season two review. Meanwhile, Google reviewer Sarah wrote: 'This is one of the best TV series I have ever watched! Season one reminded me a lot of Squid Game mixed with a little bit of Hunger Games but leaves off with a better cliffhanger.' A highly anticipated third season of Alice in Borderland is coming to Netflix in September 2025. Where to watch: Seasons 1 and 2 are available on Netflix. Described as 'addictive' in The Guardian's four-star review, Bargain is set in a remote hotel in Korea where human organs are auctioned off to the highest bidder. A synopsis adds: 'After a catastrophic earthquake, the victims, traffickers and buyers are all trapped inside the crumbling building. Cut off from the outside world, they must fight to survive the aftermath at any cost. With a perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score, the show has impressed critics, who have described it as 'engrossing', 'wildly unpredictable' and 'gloriously vicious'. Where to watch: All six episodes are available to stream on Paramount Plus. There are four seasons to binge of this Brazilian show, which is set in a future society where most of the population lives in poverty. But, every year, each 20-year-old gets one chance to join the privileged 3%, who have been saved from squalor and now live in a utopian paradise. More Trending The show has a very respectable 85% on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics praising its twists and strong characters. Screen Rant wrote in their review: 'When 3% isn't making thoughtful observations about the human race and how we wall ourselves off from one another, it's dazzling you with clever moments and genuinely shocking twists all designed to keep you hopelessly hooked.' And Refinery29 said: 'The Brazilian show will itch the Hunger Games scratch, but still add an entirely new element of excitement.'

Lewis Capaldi releases new music amid speculation of Glastonbury set
The 28-year-old last performed at Glastonbury in 2023 before taking a break citing anxiety and announced on New Year's Eve the same year that he planned to take a hiatus to focus on his health. He has released a new song titled Survive and alongside a video montage, with the song playing, he wrote on Instagram: 'It's been a while…'. Last month, he performed on stage for the first time in two years at a charity gig in Edinburgh to raise funds for suicide prevention. Capaldi, from Bathgate, West Lothian, has Tourette's Syndrome and released his first album in 2019, with a second album following in 2023. On New Year's Eve in 2023, Capaldi said in a lengthy Instagram post that he would 'continue taking some time to carry on looking after myself' following the announcement he would take a break from touring after struggling with his voice during his Glastonbury Festival set earlier in the year. Capaldi explored how the pressures of fame have affected him mentally and physically in the Netflix documentary Lewis Capaldi: How I'm Feeling Now which was released in April 2023. His critically-acclaimed 2019 debut album Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent emerged as the biggest-selling UK album of both 2019 and 2020. His hit songs include 2019's Someone You Loved, 2020's Before You Go and 2022's Forget Me. This year's Glastonbury line-up features a number of acts listed as TBA, with a Friday slot on the Pyramid Stage at 4.55pm speculated as one Capaldi could perform in, but this has not been confirmed. Also among the music stars rumoured to be performing a secret set at Glastonbury is New Zealand singer Lorde, whose fourth studio album, Virgin, has just been released.

'I'm 28 and have never been kissed but I think men lack important quality'
Most people have shared their first kiss with someone they fancy by the age of 28, but one woman explained why she'd chosen not to kiss anyone - and she's concerned about dating too A woman has shared that she's never been kissed at the age of 28, but it doesn't bother her too much right now because she believes that she hasn't met a man with qualities she admires thus far. She shared that she's "in a really good place" in her life, saying she's the "happiest" she's ever been "physically and mentally," as she's " active" with a "stable job". However, when it comes to the romance element of her life, she just can't seem to crack the code. She admitted that she didn't know what to do, because she'd recently deleted dating apps, and just wasn't sure about how to meet men "organically" who are actually "nice". She took to Reddit 's 'Ask' forum to explain: "Last summer, I decided to download dating apps and only went on two dates with two different guys months apart. "The first one was nice, but it didn't work out because of my communication (you live and you learn). The second guy was a total creep who made me want to take a self-defence class afterwards". She continued by explaining she keeps "downloading and redownloading" dating apps, but she grew "frustrated with the entire experience". "I receive a good amount of likes and match with a fair number of men, but no one ever really talks. And honestly, I didn't try that hard cause of the idea that 'oh there's always another option out there'," she explained. The woman then explained that because she'd been to Coachella in April, she didn't miss dating apps as she was having "the time of her life" and she "never felt happier". But now the excitement has died down and she's feeling like she wants to date again, she admitted that she didn't know what to do. She ended her post by writing: "How do I meet a nice guy? I'm nearing my 30s, and I feel like I should be doing something to meet people. Just looking for thoughts here and maybe a little encouragement". In the comments, someone pointed out that you have to be open to connection to receive connection, penning: "It seems like everyone lives very atomised lives now. Get up. Wash teeth. Check Social Media. Eat breakfast or gym. Wear headphones and use phone / tablet throughout. Commute to work. "Watch something at your desk with a sandwich. Commute home, cook for one, watch Netflix then bed by 9. Our daily lives are engineered so it is easy to avoid real human connections if we so wish. "You can only meet people if your eyes are looking and your ears are listening. Change your routines. Seek new interests just to meet new people or rekindle old interests. If your friends are in relationships, ask them have they any single friends. "You have to put yourself out there unless you are a particularly attractive person. The reason people often meet in University is often because there is a social expectation or pressure, even, to socialise. "As we get older, that pressure eases and we get a bit too comfortable with our own company. The problem is, you [have to] hope a lot more of your generation does too". The woman responded, agreeing, saying that she wanted "human connection," with somebody likening dating apps to "Amazon shopping lists". One man said: "Go to a board gaming event near you. Us single men are there". A Redditor recommended: "Go to good areas to meet good people. Having barely any experience is a double-edged sword. Please be careful and aware of red flags and have the strength to walk away". Another offered lovely advice, writing: "Just try and meet people regardless of gender. Enjoy yourself and pick up some hobbies and just meet people organically and things will fall into place. Smile, laugh, have fun. It will all work out".
