Comedy Central Summer Stunts Include The Cleveland Show; Netflix's GLOW Returns August 9
Comedy Central has made a schedule change that will take in effect next week. The Cleveland Show has been added to Tuesdays from 3-5pm beginning Tuesday, June 11, replacing Parks & Recreation. No other changes, but Comedy Central has announced some summer stunts in July. South Park Summer Marathons begin Wednesday, July 3 from 9am–11pm. The Office: Ryan Started the Fire (wt) airs on the 4th of July with a marathon on Thursday, July 4 from 9am–12am with Ryan-themed episodes. And finally, on the day after the 4th, The Cleveland Show Marathon airs on Friday, July 5 from 9am–9pm.
Time to get your GLOW on for a third time! Netflix comedy GLOW will launch on Friday, August 9, 2019 with 10 all-new episodes. Season 3 follows the ladies of GLOW as they take the Vegas strip by storm. Now headliners at the Fan-Tan Hotel and Casino, the women quickly realize Sin City is much more grind than glitter. Ever the team cheerleader, Ruth's passion for the show begins to take a backseat to her growingly complicated personal life. Debbie is making headway as a producer, but continues to be consumed with guilt over the distance between her and her son. As their residency wears on, the lines blur between performance and reality, and the cast find themselves struggling with their own identities both in and outside of the ring.
Inspired by the short-lived but beloved show from the '80s, GLOW tells the fictional story of Ruth Wilder (Alison Brie), an out-of-work, struggling actress in 1980s Los Angeles who finds one last chance for stardom when she's thrust into the glitter and spandex world of women's wrestling. In addition to working with 12 Hollywood misfits, Ruth also has to compete with Debbie Eagan (Betty Gilpin) a former soap actress who left the business to have a baby, only to be sucked back into work when her picture perfect life is not what it seems. And at the wheel is Sam Sylvia (Marc Maron), a washed-up, B-movie director who now must lead this group of women on the journey to wrestling stardom.
