The success of a TV show in the current gen is heavily dependent on the uniqueness that they bring. Thus, makers strive to bring some-undiscovered or eccentric aspects into their creations to make them more appealing to the viewers.
Squid Game was one such drama that ticked the right boxes to become a massive hit among the audience. The success was so impressive that it caught the eye of internet sensations like MrBeast. Now reports are out regarding an American adaptation of the popular survival drama, and Jimmy Donaldson has a hilarious response to these reports.

From the land that brought us exquisite pop music and bands like BTS, comes the survival drama that is Squid Game. This South Korean series went on to become a global success for its innovative vision. The game features a ‘death show’ painted as a game show with a lucrative prize. Without divulging the narrative and spoiling it for any potential viewers, we can say that this is a game show you do not want to attend.
So MrBeast eliminated the gory parts of the popular TV show and made his very own event that was themed around the Squid Game. It became his biggest hit and has the record for the most viewed MrBeast video, currently standing at a mammoth 403 million views!
Now, as the series is taking an ‘American diversion’, Donaldson hilariously mocked the already existing American version. That is, he joked about how ‘America Squid Game’ was already present, as he earlier ventured into that field.
Isn’t that what we did? Lol
