So the season really didn't have the comedy bite that it die.
If they do another season, I'll give it a shot, and hope that the strong writing returns.

I've got about 1-2 episodes left from this season and I'm absolutely loving it. I think the shift from a scrappy upstart crew, to an established team grinding out a show day by day has given GLOW a lot of breathing room.
The secondary characters are being fleshed out with more detail, and the established characters are developing and changing in ways that feel organic.
At first I was a little "oh, they're not focusing on the wrestling?" and it kinda took me back as well, but after a few episodes I bought in on the idea of the wrestling being more of a backdrop, and less of a character, and individual lives of the characters being more of the focus.
I will agree there's a lot less laughs this season.
