Summery sweet nostalgia from Natalie Merchant.

On Late Night with Jonathan Ross early 1990's This is a TV clip that is not available elsewhere and in my opinion can only enhance the popularity of the artist and bring enjoyment to others. It is not for commercial gain.

Binge-worthy GLOW, created for Netflix by Jenji KohanCarly MenschLiz Flahive, is inspired by the real-life cable TV show from the '80s, showcasing the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. 

Guts, glitter, glory... Are you ready to GLOW? Inspired by the short-lived but beloved show from the 80s, GLOW tells the fictional story of Ruth Wilder (Alison Brie), an out-of-work, struggling actress in 1980s Los Angeles who finds one last chance for stardom when she's thrust into the glitter and spandex world of women's wrestling.

G.L.O.W.: The Story of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling is both inspiring and heartbreaking. Watch the inspiration behind the Netflix series GLOW.

Female wrestling has been documented in Brett Whitcomb and Bradford Thomason's G.L.O.W.: The Story of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, which airs tonight on Logo. Several of the original Ladies participated in the documentary, which gives it voyeuristic before-and-after appeal. But the doc also exudes a humanity that the conscious camp of the show glossed over.
