Netflix this week plans to add 19 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup, including 13 originals. (Note: Netflix labels a show an ‘original’ even if it first airs in another country, but airs first on Netflix in the United States.)
The new titles will include season three of GLOW (pictured above), the Netflix original comedy about women’s wrestling in 1980s Los Angeles. Starring Alison Brie (Mad Men) and Marc Maron, the show is based on a real-life outfit of acting misfits who toured the United States during the drug-fueled decade.

The first two seasons of GLOW has captured a score of 93 out of a possible 100 at RottenTomatoes.com, which tracks critical reviews.
“A marvelous tale of scrappy underdogs that both respected and sent-up its origins, with a cracking script and a well-selected cast of both actors and characters,” writes Catherine Gee of The Daily Telegraph.
