Pose

Season 1 – 100% – In its uniqueness, almost indescribable – and possibly unrepeatable. Pose works as the most primary family drama, as a reflection of its time, as a specific social study, as a compilation of great songs, and last but not least, as a true TV milestone. It will make you laugh and cry and will shock you with a multitude of acting discoveries (Billy Porter's portrayal of Pray is already iconic) and simply won't let the viewer go. That's why I don't understand why such an extravagant event passed through television so quietly. The usual cable TV hype would fit perfectly here like never before. Season 2 – 90% – Even though the first magic of the unseen is gone, I would still have a hard time finding something better that was born in the TV series field this year. It doesn't reach the highest rating this time, because there were too many "special episodes" for a modest portion of ten episodes, but I still can't get enough and probably will never be able to. Pose is so uniquely touching and sincere at the same time that it keeps my head spinning, whether it's tears of joy or genuine sadness. Billy Porter is still the king, Indya Moore is the princess, and a special trophy should go to Angel Bismark Curiel. While Papi was more or less of no concern to me, he steals every moment in the second season and becomes one of the most lively and likable characters. Season 3 – 90% – I understand that producing crowd scenes in these times must have been hell, and the whole production must have swelled in its demanding nature, but the news that the third season would be the last season took my breath away. So even though it's a huge loss, because Pose is a series like no other, at least it will leave mostly on its own terms and whatever can be concluded in terms of the plot, will also be concluded. Each beloved character has an incredibly emotional end to their journey, sometimes sad, sometimes melancholic, sometimes genuine happy ending, but all variations are in line with the characters developed and never, not even in moments when kitsch and melodrama hold hands, do they cross the line where I would take everything away from the creators. For example, the music scene "I swear", which with a bit of bad luck could have turned into an over-the-top syrupy song, resonates with me the loudest out of the entire season. Please cast Angel Bismark Curiel and Indya Moore in all of Ryan Murphy's new projects. (06.09.2018)
