How this season is filed

Filed by Tessa Quinn · Spoiler-Free (Mostly)

1980s women's wrestling neon: Alison Brie and Betty Gilpin turning friendship, betrayal, and spandex into industry satire. Marc Maron's broken director, ring psychology, sequins, sweat. Netflix ensemble joy — then the cancellation that still stings because the planned finale never got to pin the decade.
