Streaming giant Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) is set to release the highly anticipated second season of "Squid Game" on Dec. 26, adding to an exciting month with its first live NFL games <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41123711/netflix-stock-could-get-boost-from-nfl-games-squid-game-season-2-analyst-says-conte">on Christmas Day.</a>
A Benzinga reader poll shows the second season might face more of an uphill battle for viewers compared to the first season in 2021.
What Happened: Released in September 2021, "Squid Game" <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42305013/squid-game-season-2-includes-new-games-contestant-with-a-crypto-background-revenge-factor-political-overtones">shattered viewership records </a>for Netflix with 1.65 billion hours watched in the first four weeks of availability.
The series became a massive hit and pop culture phenomenon and fans have eagerly been awaiting a second season.
Netflix will premiere all seven episodes of the second season on Dec. 26, beginning at 3 a.m. ET. Benzinga recently polled readers to see how eager people are to watch the new season.
"Will you be watching ‘Squid Game' season 2?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>No, I don't plan to watch: 70%</li>
<li>Yes, I'll binge-watch the entire season when it's out: 21%</li>
<li>Yes, I'll watch each episode as soon as I can: 9%</li>
</ul>
The poll found that Benzinga readers are less excited about the second season compared to the interest generated by the first season.
The day-after-Christmas release could be a double-edged sword for Netflix. While the timing benefits from people being off work, it also coincides with family gatherings that might limit viewership.
Netflix will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42657482/mrbeast-dominates-prime-video-how-youtuber-could-help-amazon-boost-streaming-presence">also be competing</a> with MrBeast's "Beast Games," a record-breaking game show on Amazon.com's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Prime Video. &#8220;Beast Games&#8221; released its first two episodes on Dec. 19 with a third episode coming on Dec. 26. The show features elements similar to the contests featured in &#8220;Squid Game.&#8221;

What's Next: The second season of "Squid Game" will bring back several cast members from the first season. The new season has already been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42395178/golden-globes-2025-nominations-netflix-scores-nods-for-emilia-perez-and-squid-game-comcast-lands-4-wicked-noms">nominated for a Golden Globe</a> and could become a favorite on the awards circuit, given more hype around the show this time.
Returning for the second season is the winner of the game in the first season, Seong Gi-hun (aka Player 456), portrayed on screen by&nbsp;Lee Jung-jae.&nbsp;Director and writer&nbsp;Hwang Dong-Hyuk&nbsp;also returns for the second season.
The second season features new characters and revolves around Gi-hun, who returns to the game three years after the competition to search for the people behind it and shut it down for good, as reported by <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/12/squid-game-season-2-explained-hwang-dong-hyuk-lee-jung-jae-1236189235/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Deadline</a>.
This time, characters competing for the prize include a former cryptocurrency influencer who loses a large amount of money for his subscribers and himself. The crypto influencer becomes a fugitive before joining the Squid Game competition, according to the report.
Another one of the 400-plus contestants in the games is a woman who made bad investments following the advice of the same cryptocurrency influencer taking part in the games.
Following the second season, a third and final season of the hit show will be released in 2025. Director Hwang said the second and third seasons were written at the same time and both were produced simultaneously. The third season is currently in the post-production process, the director said.
The first season of "Squid Game" has been watched by a total of 330 million viewers and a total of 2.8 billion hours have been streamed since the release, as reported by <a href="https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/squid-game-viewers-netflix-seoul-experience-1236232449/">Variety</a>. The overall metrics and the first four weeks&#8217; totals for the second season will be used to compare the success of the newest season.

Company Priorities for 2025
Looking at both the improvements in the base business and the advances we made with vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), we have a lot to be proud of in 2024.
I am even more pleased we accomplished all of this while slashing our net operating loss by more than 30%.
As we look to 2025,
<ul>
<li>We are exploring new opportunities to increase cash flow generated by the ClearUP business.</li>
<li>We look forward to completing the current work with Feinstein Institute of Bioelectronic Medicine.</li>
<li>We are charting disease-specific clinical trials, moving the company closer to securing regulatory approvals for what we expect will be life-changing treatments for patients in need.</li>
<li>We look forward to talking in more detail about the specific target indications as we advance into the next stage of clinical trial work in 2025.</li>
</ul>
We anticipate that the advancement of our clinical programs for ncVNS will be key to increasing long-term shareholder value. In addition, the board and I continue to evaluate a range of options to maximize shareholder returns, including taking the necessary steps to ensure we regain Nasdaq listing compliance.
I would like to recognize the exceptional efforts of the lean and dedicated Tivic Health team. I thank them for their relentless drive and hard work. Together, with our investors, collaborators, and supporters, we are striving to build a company that can transform the future of medicine and make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of people around the world.
We are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead, and we look forward to continuing this journey with all of you in 2025.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Ernst Chief Executive Officer

On Sunday, Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), denied rumors that he has planned a $600 million wedding to marry his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez. Bezos and several other celebrities reacted to the since-debunked<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42639012/inside-jeff-bezos-600m-wedding-to-lauren-sanchez-luxe-decor-stars-and-romance"> report on social media.</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;
What To Know: The Bezos wedding rumor originated on Saturday with <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14217859/Jeff-Bezos-Lauren-Sanchez-wedding-plan-Aspen-date-is.html">a report</a> from the Daily Mail alleging the couple would marry in a $600 million dollar ceremony at Kevin Costner&#8217;s Dunbar Ranch in Aspen.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Other media outlets picked up the story and billionaire investor Bill Ackman questioned the validity of the report in a response to a story from the NY Post.&nbsp;

Bezos then responded to Ackman's post with a full denial of the rumored wedding.&nbsp;
&#8216;This whole thing is completely false &#8211; none of this is happening,&#8217; he posted on X. &#8216;The old adage &#8220;don&#8217;t believe everything you read&#8221; is even more true today than it ever has been.&#8217;

Elon Musk, currently the richest man in the world, also responded to the social media thread with well-wishes for his rival. Musk said that &#8220;even if one is not present,&#8221; he hopes Bezos holds &#8220;an epic wedding&#8221; in the future. 
Bezos is currently the second-richest man in the world, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/">according </a>to Bloomberg, and the men have battled for first place in the past.

Michael Saylor, chairman of MicroStrategy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) and outspoken Bitcoin advocate, also responded to Bezos' denial of the $600 million wedding rumors.&nbsp;
"$600M would buy a lot of Bitcoin," Saylor posted.&nbsp;

What Else: Though Bezos denied rumors of an upcoming Aspen nuptial, he did not give any details about when or where a wedding may take place for the couple. Bezos, 60, and Sanchez, 55, have been engaged since May 2023 and have remained relatively tight-lipped regarding their wedding plans.&nbsp;
&#8220;We're still thinking about the wedding,&#8221; Sanchez told<a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/lauren-sanchez-december-2023-interview-profile"> Vogue</a> in November 2023.
&#8220;What it's going to be. Is it going to be big? Is it going to be overseas? We don't know yet. We've only been engaged five months!&#8221; she said.
