    Hilarious.

    This is very similar to a real GLOW episode. More campy and a great tribute to its namesake.

    Loved it

    This episode was amazing. It was hilarious and I laughed the whole way through. I thought it was really fun to see the "other side" of this fictional universe, where you as the real audience are seeing what the fictional audience would view when watching the show. Possibly my favorite episode thus far!

    Trolls, Back Off

    This was a great episode. The best of the 20. Funny, creative, and true. The trolls complaining about this episode are dishonest and must have a hidden agenda. God, I hate them. Watch this episode and your faith will be rewarded.

    Missing the point

    It seems other reviewers have no interest in the finished product of the characters. It's pure camp. It's fun. It's not weighed down by the "real" life struggles of the characters. You can see that they've gone full "IDGAF" and personally feel like it adds another layer to the overall story.

    A Look At The Real G.L.O.W.

    I think that the people panning this episode don't appreciate that the Netflix series G.L.O.W. is a fictionalized history of an actual series and that the original series was presented in exactly the way this episode unfolded. There is a documentary on Netflix that provides great insights into the original series. Watch it and then go back and re-watch this episode and you will understand why this episode is both necessary and spot on. Ninotchka=Zoya. Little Egypt=Little Beruit. And Americana? Isn't it obvious?

      Ruth's "Olga" character saying "What a country!" is a nod to Soviet-American stand-up comedian Yakov Smirnoff's infamous catchphrase.
    • Goofs
      Glow-bot's clip was holding the floppy disk with Brittanica's brain by the part where the actual inner disk was exposed, which likely would have erased the data.
