ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

GLOW (TV series)

Glow is a TV show that is like a big pretend game played by grownups! It's based on real-life events that happened in the 1980s, when a bunch of ladies decided to create a women's wrestling show.

The main character is a lady named Ruth, who is an actress and wants to be in the show. The show is like a play with costumes and makeup, but instead of saying lines, the ladies wrestle each other! It's a sport, but it's also funny and exciting to watch.

There are lots of different characters with different personalities and skills, like a tall lady who is really strong, a girl who can do flips and jumps, and a lady who is really good at being mean.

They all have to work together as a team to make the show successful. They practice their wrestling moves and try to come up with ideas for their characters. Sometimes they have arguments, but they also learn to support each other and become friends.

The show is really colorful and fun to watch, with lots of music from the 80s. It teaches us that anyone can be a superhero, even if they don't have superpowers. You just need to work hard and believe in yourself!
