They must have had so much fun shooting this. The energy is palpable.

As a girl who was raised by 4 lesbians and a fabulous Queen, this reminded me of the days I spent as a little girl, watching my godmother get ready for drag shows. She was phenomenal. Tall, hair nor dress ever out of place. Makeup was impeccable. I miss her everyday.

When Blanca said “...Linda Evangelista, who stole my look, and who I pay tribute to in return” I died

[Karbear]

This show is Amazing. I feel for all the characters, even Electra. Makes me cry every week.

Can we all be thankful for Pose bringing back this VERY underrated Miss Ross song back into our lives?

[manramen]

Blanca lost, but sometimes the point is just to challenge the unchallenged.

The way cubby walks is my fave with the hand in the air

[elomarr]

This show is what I needed in my life! It recharges my battery and makes me proud to be gay and brown! Finally something for us! 😎😀

2:30 is when Electra realizes that blanka had something special, like an attribute she didn't had

[charlesgidney]

The use of music to develop the storylines really made this a good show to watch. This battle was a clean sweep. So using "Swept Away" by Diana Ross was pure genius. Also, the look that Electra gives Blanca at 2:30 when she realizes her potential to mold Damon is priceless. The first win is in the bag but she knows that Blanca will become a forced to be reckoned with.

I just want to say that I am mexican with a very deep and strong Mexican machismo. Yes I act what you would call masculine, but am gay. And this amazing show makes me more eager to learn about my beautiful lgbtq culture. So much to learn. Not just the good but the bad, I take for granted so many things that my fellow people couldn't do years ago. I'm realizing it now and need to know more of my history.

[RatchetRalph]

This show deserves an Emmy - gives us gay boys a place to escape and be proud of who we are. <3

I was looking for the category royalty. Now that was everything!

[rosembergarias]

Great show as a straight man, i love this show. Is funny, sad, and gets the 80s in great fashion and music. The actresses and actors are stupendous.👏👏👏

[jennynotfromtheblock]

The way Cubby & Lemar just tag teamed Damon always gets me!! 😂😩

But, he held his own!

[anninurminen]

I have no idea what the actual hell this is, but I'm living for it..

[strgzr]

Latinos, Blacks, and Asians ALWAYS throwing the house down and representing! It's in our genes!

Electra's entrance into the dancing circle was

[awon]

2:31 The moment Elektra realized that she had raised another formidable mother!
