Alice in Borderland

I am 6 episodes into season 1 and the only thing this show has going for it is the ludicrous mini-games and the good-looking cast. The plot is nonsense and the dialog is a cringe-fest. On the bright side, I can see Tao Tsuchiya as Faith Connors in a Mirror's Edge™ series, but she needs a better parkour instructor. Sadly, I doubt Electronic Arts cares enough about ME™ to finance a series for it. One was announced years ago, then nothing ever happened. I'm gonna speed through the last couple episodes, and after that, I think I'm done. This garbage has a higher rating than Penny Dreadful (2014) here on TMDB. Que?!

What a great TV show. It reminds me another great TV show "Squid Game". If you like that one, you will like this one too.

Such a fun show. Definitely worth the watch if you’re into anime or Squid Game.

First two seasons are fun to watch 3rd is poop

Series should've ended in Season 2.

Alice in Borderland establishes rules, stakes, and limits for games, then breaks them constantly, delivering a continuous assault of narrative hand-waving. Unlike Squid Game, which earns tension through consistent rules and realistic consequences, this show prioritizes gimmickry over logic.
