May Picks: The Movies and TV You Can't Miss1 of 26
"Pose" | Season 3 Premieres on FX on Sunday, May 2
Plot: It's 1994. As the AIDS epidemic continues to ravage New York City, Blanca must balance her relationships with her partner and her children with her new role as a nurse's aide. Pray Tell contends with unexpected health burdens. And the emergence of a vicious new upstart house forces the House of Evangelista members to contend with their legacy.
Our Take: I have learned to accept that "Pose" was always conceived as a three-act narrative, and its final season was trimmed to 7 episodes in order to accommodate filming during the height of the pandemic in New York City. Jumping forward in time to the early 1990s feels right, lest we forget this was the era of the real-world documentary Paris Is Burning. I like to imagine the fictional Blanca, Pray Tell, and all the legendary mothers and children burning up ballroom floors with the dearly departed Willi Ninja, Octavia St. Laurent, and Venus Xtravaganza. — Arno
