'GLOW' gets Season 3 renewal at Netflix

"GLOW" will be back in the ring with a third season.

Netflix has renewed the wrestling comedy, which features a sprawling female cast that includes Alison Brie and Betty Gilpin, for a 10-episode third installment.

Created by Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, the series is inspired by the short-lived real Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW). Netflix's fictional world tells the story of a misfit posse of women wrestlers. Brie plays Ruth Wilder, a struggling actress who finds a spot in the female wrestling show. Gilpin plays her friend, ex-soap star Debbie Eagan, who begrudgingly joins the squad.

Netflix does not release ratings data, but the comedy is a critical favorite and is up for 10 Emmy nominations at this year's ceremony, including best comedy series and best supporting actress in a comedy series for Gilpin.

The first and second seasons are currently available to stream on Netflix.
