'Glamorous' (2023) Series on Netflix

Glamorous is a Netflix series produced by CBS and created by Jordon Nardino. Starring Kim Cattrall (Sex and the City) and featuring breakthrough actor Miss Benny in a hilarious role, the series draws inspiration from The Devil Wears Prada, but with a more benevolent character. Although the show meets expectations, they are not particularly high.

The plot follows Marco, an aspiring influencer who lands a dream job with a makeup mogul. He embarks on a dazzling journey of self-discovery amidst the chaos of his work and romantic challenges.

While the show is an entertaining, glamorous comedy, it is more intriguing for its concept than its execution. As the series progresses, the comedy overshadows the plot, leaving it somewhat superficial. The acting is more convincing than the characters themselves, and the actors’ performances are more impactful than their dialogue. The series is too focused on being “glamorous” and not enough on delivering a compelling story.

Visually, the show is aesthetically pleasing, but it fails to leave a lasting impression due to its lack of innovation in content and style. The relationship between Marco and his mother is a point of connection with reality in a fantasy world, adding a touch of maturity, though perhaps not enough for some viewers.

Overall, the show is a fun mix of romance and comedy, but it loses its comedic touch as it progresses, ultimately becoming forgettable.
