Re: GLOW (Netflix)
This was OK. Not nearly as 80's feel (just didn't hit that sweet atmosphere like Stranger Things) as I would've liked it to be, without any particularly big moments I will remember. But it knows the story it's telling and it tells it without ever being boring.
Though I can definitely see season 2 kicking into high gear and going balls deep into that kitsch and over-the-topness wrestling is associated with, which would make the show a bit more memorable and fun.
This was a really entertaining show. Marc Maron killed it and it was fun seeing how that relationship between Ruth and Debbie would be resolved. Many of the supporting characters stole the show in certain episodes too.
I'm definitely down for another season.

Re: GLOW (Netflix)
The second season of this was AMAZING. Alison Brie, Betty Gilpin, Marc Maron and Chris Lowell all deserve Emmy consideration.
I also am legit shipping Ruth and Sam. That final scene in the finale was great.
I enjoyed Season 2 as well. Maybe not as much as the first season overall, but it's still a blast to watch and I am even more invested in these characters than before. Looking forward to Season 3.

Re: GLOW (Netflix)
This and "Handmaid's Tale" are my favorite shows on TV right now.
Freaky Tuesday might be their best episode yet. This show is fantastic.

This is the hardest cancellation to take in a while

Re: GLOW (Netflix)
I wonder if they will be taken by another studio now though its too niche of a series to show on TV but maybe some other streaming service can pick it up.
