Young Volcanoes Posted July 6, 2022 Posted July 6, 2022 I don't know if it'll dethrone it but ST has had way more longevity for a 6 year old show which is quite impressive. Not to mention it has an actual fandom. SG has largely been forgotten and people stopped talking about it after the Tiktok hype died down. The bigger show is clearly ST.

Imo it’s a fair comparison, SG might be bigger but stranger things while is more focalized in youth and the anglo sphere, is not that far behind. Edited July 6, 2022 by Trent W

Even if it does, it's not nearly as impressive. 1 hour ago, Narima said: vol1 and vol2 shouldn't be counted together but nice for some headlines i guess 36 minutes ago, Godly said: Isn't this kind of a cheat? oop 6 minutes ago, Trent W said: But also Squid Games had like 5 more episodes. lies and more lies Edited July 6, 2022 by fridayteenage

Stranger Things 4 has 9 episodes and is 13 hours long

A big reason why ST is able to last for so long is because of the theories. SG doesn't really have that and S2 will end up being a massive flop. Edited July 6, 2022 by Billionaire

dussymob Posted July 6, 2022 Posted July 6, 2022 No one cares about SG now though which was nothing different from the hundreds of other survival Asians shows.
Jay07 Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 Hopefully it does, it's a lot better written, acted and directed. Squid Game is so cheap and corny.
Oceania Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 I don't know but SG felt bigger due its gimmick and memeability. Either way I don't really care since, imo, SG is mediocre and ST awful. God forbid a well written and acted show becomes a cultural phenomenon.
Prisoner Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 Squid game was inescapable. Everyone, especially little kids was humming that annoying little tune even without views, SG will always be bigger, even if ST is the better show

Anye Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 Stranger Things is the better show so I want them to win. Although here in my country in asia, SG seems bigger and impactful.
Johnny Jacobs Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 The way squid game was only good for the first episode. Yikes. And hope so

This yall acting like just because the first season was so big that people are still clamoring for Squid Games. It's like Avatar (2009), huge at the time but largely forgotten now.
