GLOW was a guilty pleasure of mine...

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Sounds interesting but i'm wary since it's from the OITNB guy. That show has absolutely no direction. It's not going anywhere and the worst character is the main character. Dropped it halfway through season 3.

 

[BlueTsunami]

I have Prime but never really use their video service. I should watch those shows and that Nazi castle thing some time.

Man in the High Castle was fantastic

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Still wary about season 4 of OITNB, but I'm definitely interested in GLOW.

 

[Minyobi]

Wrestling fans wanted Lucha Underground. Instead we get this.

I mean, LU has to be next, right?
...
Right?

Nah, I think Netflix will continue to be interested in things that don't have an average viewing age of 55.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Nah, I think Netflix will continue to be interested in things that don't have an average viewing age of 55.

yeah, that's why they're making a show about an 80s wrestling fed

 

[BobTheFork]

She was in WWF not GLOW.

And WWE would never allow something that would reveal Moolah as one of the biggest scumbags in the industry who pimped out her students and setback the entire art form of women's wrestling in the U.S.

What does that have to do with anything? It's a well known women's wrestling angle, they WILL use it.

It's like that playmakers ESPN series. Yeah it wasn't the NFL but they basically ripped every not worthy story from the NFL of the past few years and made stories about it.

I feel certain there will be a screwjob angle in this show.

There's a misunderstanding here, it sounded like you were saying that they'll have Wendi(and Moolah) show up themselves and do the angle, not that they'll just do a screwjob storyline based on it. Of course they'll get into some screwjob nonsense.(it aint wrestling without a screwjob)

 

[Jamie OD]

is moolah even in the observer hall of fame? cause she sure as hell should not be

She is not and Meltzer reckons she'll never get voted in for several reasons including that.

 

[forgeforsaken]

This could be really good. The stuff that went on with GLOW behind the scenes was pretty nuts and would make for a good comedy series. Definitely check out the documentary if you get the chance as well.

 

[Maybesew]

I remember watching this is a kid. CAnt remember if it was on saturdays or afterschool on weekdays

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

Will it be a shoot?

Its a TV show about the making of pro wrestling.

So its a work of a shoot of a work.

jabronie marks without a life that don't know it a work when you work a work and work yourself into a shoot, marks

 

[Revolver]

I watched GLOW as a kid. The doc on Netflix was pretty fascinating and touching too. Poor Mt. Fiji

Wish they'd get Lucha Underground tho.

 

[DiscoJer]

As someone hitting puberty in the 1980s, I remember GLOW fondly.

 

[Jean Grey Will Rise]

Hopefully the series doesn't go the Orange is the New Black route and soft reboots itself every season.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

I hope they consult some of the women who worked for GLOW. Hell, give Lisa Moretti/Ivory/Tina Ferrari the job.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

I can totally see Kitty being a quiet badass.

 

[Kinyou]

Also is she the only one that can create female oriented shows?

Shonda Rhimes?

 

[DMczaf]

Will this show be a shoot? Or a worked shoot?

I wonder if Hogan freaks out when he's on the set of a show or movie and someone says something about shooting.

 

[RBH]

Wrasslin on Netflix!

We made it, fam

:')

 

[Spiritwalker]

sounds weird as hell, will watch!

 

[DedValve]

The premise is so unique and captivating. Netflix your on a roll!

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

OMG I didn't know I wanted this.

Lucha Underground on Netflix next please!

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I wonder if Hogan freaks out when he's on the set of a show or movie and someone says something about shooting.

Do you think he freaked out when they told him they needed him to do some re-shoots on Suburban Commando?

 

[Tobor]

Whoa. GLOW brings me back. Saturday afternoons on the local UHF station. Awesome.

Now we just need a show about the original American Gladiators.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Do you think he freaked out when they told him they needed him to do some re-shoots on Suburban Commando?

He probably got angry when they told him he wasn't hitting the mark properly, and he told them it was a shoot, brutha.

 

[Look! The Pie!]

I'd heard about Moolah being a scumbag who essentially kept herself at the top by monopolising the women's wrestling scene back in the day, but this is the first I've heard of her pimping her fucking students out. Wow.
