Alison Brie stars as Ruth Wilder, an out-of-work actress living in Los Angeles in the '80s. Wilder finds an unexpected chance at stardom: enter the glitter and spandex-laden world of women's wrestling, where she must work alongside 12 other Hollywood misfits. Marc Maron plays the role of Sam Sylvia, a washed-up director of "B" movies who tries to lead the group of women to fame. The series is created by Carly Mensch and Liz Flahive, who serve as executive producers with Jenji Kohan and Tara Herrmann.

Critics Consensus

Fearlessly led by its excellent ensemble, GLOW's second season adds a new layer of drama without sacrificing its self-effacing, delightfully silly humor.

I actually don't mind the shorter episodes, but I wish there were twice as many. That'd still be less eps than a standard network comedy. It's doable! Go to Full Review Scarlett Harris Bitch Media 03/05/2021
GLOW made some missteps this season, but it's still drawing fresh eyes to wrestling and trying to educate its audiences about consent in wrestling during the #MeToo era. Go to Full Review Alexandra Pollard Independent (UK) 08/07/2019
4/5
This season belongs to Debbie, who in Gilpin's hands is at once fierce and fragile, facing more battles outside of the ring than inside. Go to Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv 11/08/2022
The series also manages to balance comedy and action with some keen-eyed commentary on the times. Go to Full Review Mimi Wong Mediaversity Reviews 01/11/2020

Every actual wrestling moment GLOW offers is actually lively and exciting and super fun. If it gets a third season, let's hope it recognizes where its strengths are, and ditch any and all dead weight. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Karl P 10/13/2024 For sure the best of the show's 3 seasons. And for me, episode 8 was the pinnacle of the entire series. All the viewer had learned of the characters, the time spent going with the story arcs of the characters and the TV show, paid off with this absolutely brilliant, crazy episode where director Sam and his cast, led by Debbie and Ruth, convinced that their show will be cancelled, pull out all the stops and do all the insane things with their wrestling characters that they always wanted to. This means, most of all, giving Ruth's villain Zoya a good twin who comes to America to set things right. The resulting episode is insane, and sets in motion all that will make the finale of the season, when Rhoda the brainiac gets married in the ring, a satisfying conclusion. I loved it, and after episode 8, I never wanted the season to end. See more 12/23/2020 This show is effing fantastic! See more 12/09/2020 If GLOW season 2 wasn't about the struggle, it wouldn't make any sense that it was about wrestlers. Wrestle on, ladies, wrestle on. See more 05/03/2020 This season of Glow will shine again, with spectacular action sequences, radical changes, and excellent performances that will surprise with their unique and special style. See more 04/28/2020 Season 2 is my favorite season of GLOW. It has you tied to the storyline begging to see what happens next. See more 04/10/2020 So entertaining. I wish I had written this. Yes, it's one of those T.V. shows where you think, this idea was only a couple of thoughts away in my brain. I mean, it probably wasn't, but indulge me. The characters are great, the setting is great, the premise is unique. These are actresses that find a strange, but oddly entertaining way to continue to chase their dreams. Alison Brie and Betty Gilpin are unstoppable in this, can't take your eyes off of a single scene they are in. And the cast, the secondary characters, are well used and become well developed. The story continues to grow and so do the characters. It's unexpected, but it's realistic. This show continues to push itself. See more Read all reviews
