One of the shows I’ve been personally singing the praises of since it first hit Netflix back in June of 2017 isn’t getting it’s final ALREADY ORDERED season, and it’s criminally unfair.”GLOW” is one of those special mixes of comedy, heartache, and brilliant performances from the ensemble cast, and now we’ll never know how it was going to end.
