Netflix’sGLOWis a show that made fans worldwide laugh, broke their hearts, and amply inspired them. The story loosely based on the real pro-wrestling TV show from the 1980s,The Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling,managed to capture hearts, tickled one to the core, and had everything a dramedy should and then some. While the series was axed prematurely at the onset of the pandemic fans and cast keep finding ways to revisit the series in one way or another.
Actor and singerKate Nashtook to Twitter to share some behind the scenes images from the cancelled season as she wrote “The GLOW season ya never saw @netflix. I’m havin a real memory lane moment ok…let me live!” The accompanying images see Nash and theGLOWcast in their flashy pro-wrestling 80s costumes behind the scenes. In one image Nash is dressed head to toe in a mermaid costume, in another, the ensemble cast is seen in the ring among other behind-the-scenes moments. After a successful run of three seasons, the streamer renewed the series for Season 4 which had begun production. However, when the pandemic hit Netflix axed the series completely much to the dismay of the cast, crew, and fans of the series.
The Emmy Award-winning series created byLiz FlahiveandCarly Menschrevolved around the personal and professional lives of a group of women who performed for a wrestling organization in Los Angeles during the 1980s. The series primarily follows Ruth, a struggling actress who auditions for a fledgling professional wrestling promotion called the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW). She often clashes with GLOW’s director Sam for his cynical demeanor and unconventional work ethic. She also discovers that her former best friend, retired soap opera actress Debbie will also be starring in the show. The series nicely weaves the interpersonal relationships and professional connections of all the characters.
