Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: GLOW (Season 3)

Cancelled Too Soon concludes with a show that was renewed for a final season that never was. What ended up being the last season of the show saw the GLOW television show transformed into the GLOW Vegas residency show.

Jerome and Kevin talk about the continued balancing act of a large cast, the uneven nature of the season, parallel age gapped relationship stories, what they believe is the best episode of the entire series, and once again give the cast their well-earned flowers. They then discuss the show’s untimely cancellation, what was to come in Season 4, and some postmortem comments from the cast and crew.

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: GLOW (Season 2)

Season 2 of GLOW came at an interesting time. As Jerome and Kevin discuss the season, they also discuss how the #MeToo movement happening in modern day was reflected in a show taking place in the 1980s.

They also talk about improvements from the first season and other things they wish could have been improved, a couple of new additions to the cast, what story elements could’ve been omitted, and why Jerome seems Hulk Hogan and Bret Hart in the two main characters.

It’s finally time for the Cancelled Too Soon series to come to an end. What better way to do so then for Jerome and Kevin to discuss the very topic that started their podcasting relationship – professional wrestling?

Today’s episode marks the first part of the Cancelled Too Soon finale, discussing Season 1 of Netflix’s GLOW. First, there’s talks of what the hosts knew about the actual GLOW wrestling promotion before watching the show and how women’s wrestling was viewed in the 1980s. Then they talk about the 2012 documentary about GLOW and how that birthed the Netflix series. Talks of the show itself centers mostly around the characters and how successful the show was at balancing the ensemble cast.

Sprinkled amongst the discussion are talks of bad wigs and costuming, wrestling venues and fans, and comparison to actual wrestlers.

Jerome and Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: Wonderfalls

Wonderfalls was one of many victims of the FOX Network’s impatience in the early 2000s, cancelled after just one season. Kevin, a fan of the show for many years, discusses with Jerome, a first time viewer, the disadvantages the show had going into it and how it went into survival mode after just one episode, as well as how it is very much a product of its time.

A broad overview of what Jerome considers to be “the weirdest show they’ve watched to date” steers the conversation into thoughts on the show’s concept, the main cast (including a reverse introduction to two actors previously talked about in other shows), its ties to the Whedonverse, alternate casting and future plans, and if another season was warranted. Somehow, The Simpsons and Star Trek are also briefly discussed.
