Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW) aired last month on Netflix. Just finished the 10 epi's. Rather good ito 80s period detail, some great writing, and an ensemble cast that works well. Some funny comedic moments as well. All in all an enjoyable easy watch.

Any other fans?

I watched it, even though my streaming performance was horrible. This might have made me a bit more critical of it than I should have been. Mark Maron was awesome, as was Annie from Community. It felt a bit too much like OITNB to me, but I could get past it. Nothing against the nudity in the first episode, but it set a false precedent, and was certainly not aligned with the "spirit" of the rest of the season, it felt like it was just there to pull a (very specific) audience.

It had lots of feel good moments and was very entertaining overall.

Wait Annie from community is in there? /.goes off to watch
 
I watched the first episode but it also seemed like background entertainment.
 
Alison Brie is brilliant in this series. Watch the whole thing, it is actually very good

Little bit off the mark here but S2 aired at the tail end of June.

All 10 episodes downloaded. Will watch & report back.

I download because of the following reasons:

1. It is not illegal to do so.
2. I hoard series - can watch them anytime I want - over and over again.
3. No monthly subscriptions needed to watch series.
4. If I want to re-watch a series, no need to double bandwidth usage.
5. I can watch any time, any place. Just take my 3x 10TB HDD's with me and stuck them into an Android player.
6. Not reliable on Internet access, coverage or speeds.
7. #TooCheapForNetflix

Just some reasons why I download(ed) and keep 25TB of series with me, offline - and keep growing my collection on a daily basis.
