Let's not forget Dawn and Stacey doing hair for the show and Jenny lugging that clunky sewing machine to work on the costumes. It was a team effort to get that pilot going!

I was thinking that, grandmother being a wrestling fan aside, Arthie's a med student because of family obligation (the family wants her to be a doctor) and that deep down she really wants to be an actress but is struggling to get those meaty roles (because she's a woman of color) and is using med school as something…

Does anyone know the song that played at the beginning of the Patio Town scene? I attempted looking up the lyrics on Google ("Not in the mood for something special/not in the mood for something real") and came up with nothing.

Thanks for sharing that. While it may not mirror Ruth dealing with sexism and lookism in casting, it definitely mirror's Ruth's determination to get a role that she's passionate about. Alison Brie was perfect as Ruth/Zoya.

I'll miss her and think she added to the show in a small but meaningful way. I don't think her pilot will be the end of her GLOW days. It'll be interesting how that'll be explored in the second season.

I watched the first two episodes so far. I should've waited until after I was finished watching to come here because I can't take it seriously anymore after reading about the stepping on cockroaches dance.

I am! I keep checking for new reviews though the logic/reason side of my brain tells me that they're not coming back.

If the number of comments is what makes a show continue to get reviewed here, then I should've been commenting around this time instead of lurking. It's disappointing that the "Dear White People" reviews dropped off the face of the earth, though the reviewer apologized for the gaps in reviews (I remember him saying he…

Film/production is more her thing, so that's a good way of keeping her involved. She claimed she didn't love wrestling but Sam drama aside, she clearly loves hanging out with that group. I was surprised that she was in the ring at the end though she didn't wrestle and that Ruth and Debbie were the ones on the outside…

I've been lurking AVClub for a while and this is my first time posting, though I've watched all of "GLOW" and other shows here. LaToya, thank you so much for your reviews. I remember you from your Racialicious days and I enjoyed your "Riverdale" reviews here as well. I hope you're just going on hiatus and are not gone…
