Personally, the addition of Alley really ruined the show for me. She's annoying and whiny and everyone treats her like she's a 10, but she's really not attractive at all. And she's a Trump fan, ew (even in the 80s/90s). And she was sooooooo prevalent in the show. I seriously hated her character.

Regardless, Diane had probably run her course on the show.

Swords were more convenient close combat weapons than muskets. The story starts with D'Artagnan being set to duel the 3 musketeers with swords, and then they have to fight their way out of being arrested for illegal duel.

Never read the book or anything, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do actually do their job as musketeers at some point.

GLOW is such a tragedy because it's one of the few shows they did try to see through to the end, but Covid derailed things in the middle of shooting (had already shot the first episode)

Maybe they'll pull some magic and make it happen, but everyone involved has moved on to other things, it'd be hard to get it back together.
