Fantastic third season. ... GLOW season 3 is a show about women’s bodies as it’s always been a show about women’s bodies, but here the beauty seems to lie how far they’ll bend before they break.

GLOW is still blessed and cursed with a sprawling cast of interesting characters, and Season 3 finds more for a few of them to do, but only in snippets. ... GLOW has a gift for not feeling uninspiring when it digs into the ways women inflict pain. It's so straightforward about women's complexity that it's thrilling.
Season 3 improves as the writers move the characters beyond the roles that they’re stuck in, as wrestlers and as people. The Vegas plot line gives the show a stable setting and an intriguing milieu.
With a sprawling cast, GLOW has never been adept at offering a balanced vision of its wrestling ensemble, but season three sees deeper development and more significant screen time for Rhonda, a burgeoning businesswoman, and Sheila (Gayle Rankin).
[These episodes] explores varying aspects of these women’s lives with each relatively self-contained episode. Even if a couple of these stories end up a tad undercooked, this approach to serial television gives GLOW an admirably democratic vibe, as it eschews the notion that there’s a single experience of the ‘80s that should dominate above the others.
Season 3 is a patchwork of meaningful interludes, rote character check-ins, and errant plot threads that quickly unravel. Even Vegas itself is an afterthought.
GLOW S02 was just as fun as S01, and though this third season of Netflix's GLOW (10 eps, 1/2 hr) was much different from the first two seasons, it was still very well put together. And we guys were rewarded with a good bit of R-rated enjoyment. We've waited patiently since its debut and were nicely rewarded over quite a few episodes, in fact. This season is based in Vegas, soooo. The creatives - producers, writers, directors, actors - contributing to this series are just doing a great job season after season, and the way they put together the final episode AND the final scenes...just have some Kleenex tissue on hand. (originally posted IMDB 10/9/19)

SEASON 3
Decepcionante temporada políticamente correcta llena de relleno donde el personaje de debby parece volverse realidad y betty gillpin acapara la temporada realmente aburrida , Marc maron de lo poco salvable ya que tampoco sale mucho.

SEASON 3
Nowhere near as good as the first 2 seasons. Saw the first 6 episodes and just gave up. The smart writing has become rare, and the new season 3 has succumbed to modern TV cliches.

SEASON 3
After watching the first couple of episodes of GLOW season 3 I can confirm the wrestling has noticeably taken a back seat to what has now become a drab, predictable and characterless sub par drama. I felt so sad watching the excellent cast wasted in this rushed production after the superior wrestling focused first 2 seasons.

SEASON 3
The quirky funny show is gone.
Mirroring the action on the screen, where performers get bored of their routine, the script settles on tired tropes and moralistic musings on race, drag queens and whatnot, that at best pander to audience, but are mostly very patronizing (e.g. "number 4 is like number 13 for the Chinese", yawn). The pace of character development is glacial, as is guest star Geena Davis' acting.
