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.

Jerome & Kevin Present – Cancelled Too Soon: GLOW (Season 1)

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.
