There's A Certain Glow About Them
Based on the ’80s show GLOW, the new Netflix series of the same name uses fictional characters to tell the back story of struggling actresses (and others) who were cast and became professional wrestlers. Starring Alison Brie (Community, Mad Men) and Betty Gilpin (Nurse Jackie), the tale of the spandex world of staged fighting gets a positive review from TVWW’s Ed Bark. Marc Maron is also along as the troupe’s coke-addled mastermind. Co-produced by Orange is the New Black’sJenji Kohan, GLOW seems like the rightful sister companion to that series. All 10 episodes are available Friday, June 23rd.
