Title: Who's Ready for GLOW?
Post by: polarbear on June 18, 2017, 06:55:52 PM
I don't know about anybody else, but I'm excited for the new show GLOW on Netflix. The episodes will be available starting 6/23.  I've been reading some reviews and I have high hopes. Hopefully not so high that it fails to meet the mark.  Is anybody else going to be watching?

I hope they get the 80s hairstyles right.

The GLOW girls in the eighties weren't meant to be taken to seriously, but they were good fun.

I know that when the star of the show is hired, she's brought in for an "unrehearsed catfight". I'm curious to see what that is going to entail. Find out Friday haha

Wow, I can't wait to see the new GLOW, I remember the original glow, and I thought it was great.

I would love to go to a live event.

I've still got a video (vhs, remember that?) of the original GLOW. I think the Jewish housewives were great fun, taunting a very well built and scantily clad girl.

All set to binge watch this whole series Friday night. I've been a fan since the 80's! Although by the looks of it it seems to be loosely based off of the show... but who cares lol. My favorites were Jungle woman, all of The Cheerleaders, Ashley and Tina, and Hollywood. I also loved those funny housewives LMAO!

lol I tapped most of the GLOW shows back in the 80's. I still have the tapes. I loved the BAREFOOTED Farmers Daughter and Jungle Women. They had a few BAREFOOTED wrestlers on the show. Lets see how  Netflix does it.

Cheers!
Tony

Yes she was. She teamed with Tina Ferrari aka Ivory in WWE/WWF. I also used to love the Soul Patrol who wore straight up lingerie outfits! You could never get away with those outfits plus the Cheerleaders outfits theses days on basic cable in the U.S . Yet alone on a show who claimed kids were part of their target audience lol. Gotta love the 80's ZERO fucks given to PC culture  LMAO!

I jut finished up episode 1 where the "unrehearsed catfight" happens. Needless to say, very disappointing in what it was. However, with that being said, I can understand why it was done the way it was. Just had high hopes for that scene!

I skimmed through the season, and there doesn't seem to be much sexy material. In fact, I could even find the match from one of the trailers in any of the episodes - i.e. the one at 2:02 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xm1s4obgY0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xm1s4obgY0)
I'm on episode 6. There has been some nudity and some sexy 80's leotard shots but no catfights or real wrestling yet (there was a nipple tweak during a brief match though :)). )Despite the lack of wrestling/catfights I actually like the show. I'm having fun trying to figure out who what actor is portraying. I don't think any of the actual GLOW girls will be represented by name but you can tell who some of the characters are supposed to be. Col. Ninotchka, and Americana are definitely being represented as well as Big Bad Mamma, Mt. Fiji, Hollywood and a few others. Again I'm interested in exactly how much of this story is true expecially the Americana and Ninotchka storyline.

Does the original Hollywood, Jeanne Hollywood Basone,  make an appearance?

No cameos from past performers unless they've changed so much I couldn't recognize them. There was definitely no Hollywood though. I give the series a thumbs up. There wasn't a lot of wrestling till the last 2 episodes with somewhat a main event at the end. It was basically about the characters personal lives with a rather surprising revelation in the final 2 episodes. I recommend it especially if you're a fan of Orange is the new black type series or GLOW itself.
Also on a side note I found the main character annoying as hell  >:(

Like the recent movie CATFIGHT, this is a comedy.  Comedy, I tell ya.  A girl fight played for laughs will never ever ring my bell.

BTW, the fight at 2:02 in the trailer is in the very first episode.

Apparently you are not familiar with the source material. GLOW has always been a ridiculous over the top comedy wrestling promotion. Only a handful of the girls throughout the shows entire run were actual athletes. Most were actresses who answered a casting call to put on a wrestling "show". It was never supposed  to be an adult oriented show granted most of the outfits were VERY revealing. It was almost like a live action cartoon with its colorful and over the top characters and stereotypes.

BINGO!!! That's why I never liked GLOW!

I just finished binge watching e4-10. Betty Giplin (Debbie) seems like she was born to wear leotards and tights! I'm definitely going to watch season 2 if there is a second season.
