I watched the first episode of GLOW, and I am honestly unsure if I liked it or not. I was expecting a documentary style show, but it is a light-hearted drama that follows one woman who fairly much accidentally becomes a lady wrestler. I don't know how faithful it is to what actually happened, or if it has any basis in truth at all. I'm going to watch the second episode within the next couple of days and decide from there if I will commit to the series.

I used to watch it in the 80's and early 90's, I think... may have died in the 80's. I liked it, and not just because it was all women. They actually had characters and tried to get it all over. Think Wendy Richter came from there, or maybe I'm thinking of someone else, been a long time. Anyway, I remember liking it a lot.

It was still going in the 90s, and possibly into this century. I know Ivory was in there at one time.
Off topic: It is unfortunate that Impact doesn't have a streaming service. We don't get it here, and the duo of Rosemary and Allie is gold. I would pay a subscription just to see them.

If you have never had a Netflix account, odds are you can get a trial month for free.

Almost hard to believe that's Alison Brie.

I'll probably give it a watch at some point, but it's very low on the list of priorities.

I watch little bits of it now and then, when I've heard something interesting is going to happen.

I watch far too much rasslin' and I regret nothing! Well, I regret RAW and Smackdown and Impact wrestling, but I'm cool with the rest.

I watched the season. It is fairly decent, and the characters eventually become more likeable. Turns out that it is a fictionalized version of events, likely with some similarities to what happened. If there is another season I'll likely watch it.

Ok, been watching the crap out of this show and I love it. The cast is awesome, the behind the scenes stuff is realistic, and the emotion it get's going is great. Love this show, and you should too.

I have been so overwhelmed with work and the lack of time that i have, that i haven't been able to enjoy anything lately i feel like im not stop just rushing through things and TV is something i can't even enjoy.. maybe a vacation is something i need to request to get away from work and be able to enjoy things again.. because this was something that i really wanted to watch
