GLOW is back!

Anyone else watching?

Yes! OMG, I love this show. Just got the episode with Olga. It’s joyous.

(Would love to discuss when everyone’s caught up, especially to discuss the hotel dinner with the network head.)

I have now watched the whole series. ‘Tis great.

I have up before the end of the first episode. I guess you'd all suggest another try?

You need to stick with it. It’s definitely a grower - takes a while for all the undercurrents & subtext to make themselves known.

Glad to see this thread! No-one else I know watched GLOW!

I love it. Have finished season 2 (is there to be a third?)

Hotel dinner was skin crawling. Awful. So glad she got away. What an absolute creep.

Also, I know it was her character but I just found Ruth so fucking wet. “Anything I can do to help? Yes Sam, no Sam, 3 bags full Sam” ultimately I do like her and she was a pivotal role in the show but that aspect of her personality really rankled.

Hotel dinner was skin crawling. Awful. So glad she got away. What an absolute creep.

Debbie’s reaction really got me. Daring writing and not easy viewing.

I love Sam and Ruth’s mutual admiration, his love-hate-envy reaction to her covert brilliance and their utter fuckwittedness about the whole thing. It’s kind of brilliant because I honestly have no idea how it will play out. They could be a dynamite pairing as creatives if only he’d get over his ego.

Debbie was brutal. I totally expected it from her though. Tbh I expected it from Sam too.

DH and I found a GLOW documentary on Netflix. It was a real thing in the 80s and it is way trashier and more outrageous than the drama version. It’s a hoot! DH wants to go to bed but can’t tear himself away.

Season 2 was even better than season 1. Love this show.

I found Ruth so annoying but did enjoy glow

Is it quite wrong that I’ve got a major crush on Marc Maron?!

If that's wrong I don't want to be right!

I thought this series was, if anything, better than the first. Loved the weird way that Debbie breaking Ruth's leg kind of settled things between them - their friendship will probably never be what it was, but it felt like a debt had been paid somehow, and that argument in the hospital felt like a big cathartic release.

The other episode I loved was Debbie getting drunk and selling everything in her house. Also Tamme and her son: I thought that whole storyline was so moving, and it was very hard to watch her performing in front of him, the humiliation of her character turning into actual humiliation.

I very much want there to be a Vegas season three.

Oh I love glow so. Much. Glad to find like minded people!

Love GLOW! It had me from the very first scene where she is auditioning for a part in a tv show. So very true!

Loved the episode with Olga. Loved every minute of that series! Also watched the documentary afterwards and I just love them more now!

Sending thankful vibes to each and every one on this thread.

Thanks to you decided to try it and ended up watching 4 episodes last night! Such a fantastic series; really enjoying it.
