Despite the streaming era supposedly producing endless viewing options, it seems hard to find a shiny, new, easygoing show to dive into. Thankfully, Netflix has a solution: Glamorous, created by Jordon Nardino (Star Trek: Discovery).
In the vein of workplace shows like Ugly Betty and The Bold Type, the show follows Marco Mejia (Miss Benny), a wannabe makeup influencer who works at a department store, longing for something more. When Madolyn Addison (Kim Cattrall), the mogul behind the luxury makeup brand Glamorous by Madolyn shows up for an impromptu makeover, she’s impressed by Marco’s vision and hires them to work for her, giving them the opportunity of a lifetime.
But Glamorous isn’t just a sweet, charming show that makes for one of the most enjoyable binge-watches in ages—it also might be the gayest show there is today, a celebration of feminine queerness that we’ve never seen on mainstream TV before.
