Pilot for "Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling" Being Worked on for Netflix

GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling) owner Ursula Hayden, also known as Babe The Farmer's Daughter, announced on Facebook earlier this week that she signed a deal for a full new season of GLOW TV on Netflix. No other details were given but Diva-Dirt reports that Jenji Kohan, the creator of hit shows Orange Is The New Black and Weeds, is set to begin working on the series. It was also indicated that they are working on a pilot but the full season has not been confirmed yet.

GLOW will apparently tell the tale of a struggling actress in the 1980's, who lands a role on a cult women's wrestling show - GLOW. The Netflix series will focus on the actress struggling through the "many highs and lows of the (not so) glamorous world of wrestling."

Kohan is executive producing while Carly Mensch (Nurse Jackie, Weeds) and Liz Flahive (Nurse Jackie, Homeland) will be writing the pilot.

The GLOW documentary on Netflix was good. This sounds like the female version on the wrestler. Sign me up if it is TV-MA

I don't know. A historical drama about WWF women's wrestling in the last century would have to address Moolah pimping her trainees and holding the whole artform of female wrestling down for decades.
Im gonna need a bit of a back story on Moolah. Theres been a little bit of hate. Who was she pimpin?

I remember watching GLOW every Saturday Night before Freddy's Nightmares came on.

Netflix needs to show the actual GLOW episodes in addition to the pilot in order to get people familiar with GLOW
