GLOW’s Jackie Tohn recently spoke with Newsday; you can read a few highlights below.
Tohn comments on the popularity of the series:
“There’s a big, huge, monstrous ‘GLOW’ billboard in Times Square right now and that had me tearing up this morning. That was a dream I really never let myself dream, being on a billboard in Times Square. That was, like, too big a dream to feel attainable, that maybe this career wouldn’t ever happen for me. I’ve been at this since I was 9 and now I’m on a billboard in Times Square and I was like, ‘Hey! It happened!’ ”

Tohn comments on how her character ‘Melrose’ has changed since season one:
“Melrose in season 2 is still a wiseass who definitely always wants to be the center of attention. In season 1 she was really out for herself. There was nothing she wouldn’t do to further her own gain within the team and her own, like, kind of ‘cool’ factor. I think in season 2 she still has a mouth, but she’s much more of a team player. And she uses her full overzealousness, her ideas and her sort of producer brain [for her hopefully helpful schemes]. Like, you look at a criminal sometimes and you’re like, ‘God, if you could just use your brains for good!”
Netflix will premiere the second season of GLOW this Friday, June 29th.
