Binge Ranking: 18

One of the newer entries on the list, GLOW had strong advance reviews, the producers of Orange is the New Black, and the popularity of 80s wrestling and spandex (there's that nostalgia factor again...) to sell it ahead of its summer release (which itself helps).

You can feel the OITNB vibes all over this, which it combines with a keen attention to wrestling detail to deliver an immensely enjoyable (and easily bingeable) first season.

The cast are all fantastic, and it manages to balance its OTT elements and whackier humour with some grounded, serious dramatic beats to great effect.
