Pose

[unique1986]

BBC 2 9pm
Well looks cool.

Been wanting to watch this for ages!

Indyra is very beautiful. Love the ball scenes. The dialogue is pretty rubbish and some of the acting is dodgy but its all quite entertaining.

Enjoying it and so is my teen son

Loving the music

I’m enjoying it, loving the music.

Brilliant. The music and dancing has totally made my day.

I thought it was really good! Looking forward to the rest of the series!

I really enjoyed it! Amazing soundtrack

Enjoyed it but am confused. Are all the 'queens' female actors?

Reminds me of both Billy Elliot and Angels in America.

No, I think they’re trans. I loved it too. Bit of hammy acting but it was fun and sweet.

The transwoman who plays Angel is very beautiful. She passes well!

They’re trans. I think some of them have had similar struggles/backgrounds to the characters.

On planner

Is it worth watching

Loved this, might binge on iplayer this weekend

I know I sound ridiculous, but is this where Madonna "borrowed" vogue from???

Yes and she made no secret of it, in fact I knew about the balls because of vogue which I was obsessed with at the time!

There's a brilliant doc on Netflix about the balls and the shows.

Runs alongside an even better doc on trans ladies that reveals how many of the ladies/artistes ended up murdered in NYC during the 80s and 90s - and how relaxed the police and authorities were about finding their killers.

That sounds really interesting. Do you remember what it's called. Am useless at browsing Netflix

I loved it i was also obsessed with this scene As a teenager Madonna just made it a mainstream with vogue, If you want to watch a good documentary Paris is Burning is on you tube it is about the Balls

Paris is Burning is probably the Doc on netflix

It gets better after the first twenty minutes. It’s wonderful...may be one of the best things on tv. The credits ref Paris is Burning

The music is amazing and the first 20 minutes does not do the programme justice. Love it

I absolutely loved it. The music was fabulous and I thought the motif of Running Up That Hill was particularly clever - a song about a man and woman wanting to swap places in their relationship.

Only watched the first two so far but I have already watched Paris is Burning and I'm a Drag Race fan so I understand the setting.

I am loving it, the acting is really good and the soundtrack is brilliant. I'm hoping I can find it on Spotify.

Ryan and Brad have done a really good job and it's nice to see a couple of AHS actors in there.
