Production[edit]
Development[edit]
On March 16, 2017, it was announced that FX had given the production a pilot order. The pilot was written by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Steven Canals all of whom will produce alongside Nina Jacobson, Brad Simpson, and Sherry Marsh. Production companies involved with the pilot include FX Productions and Fox21 Television Studios.[12] Leiomy Maldonado and Danielle Polanco will be choreographing the series' ball scenes.[13] It was later announced that Janet Mock and Our Lady J had joined the show's writing staff and were also set to produce the series.[14]
On December 27, 2017, it was announced that FX had given the production a series for a first season consisting of eight episodes.[15] On July 12, 2018, it was announced that the series had been renewed for a second season.[16]
Casting[edit]
In March 2017, Ryan Murphy and his team began casting for the series. On October 25, 2017, it was announced that transgender actors Mj Rodriguez, Indya Moore, Dominique Jackson, Hailie Sahar, and Angelica Ross and cisgender actors Ryan Jamaal Swain, Billy Porter and Dyllón Burnside had been cast in main roles. The series' production team claimed that they had assembled the largest transgender cast ever for a scripted series.[13][17] The series was expected to include over 50 transgender characters total.[1] On October 26, 2017, it was announced that Evan Peters, Kate Mara, James Van Der Beek, and Tatiana Maslany had also joined the main cast.[18][19]
On December 27, 2017, it was reported that Maslany had exited the series following the redevelopment of her part into that of a 50-year-old African-American woman. The character was then recast with Charlayne Woodard assuming the role.[20] On September 19, 2018, it was announced that Sandra Bernhard would reprise her role of Nurse Judy in season two as a series regular.[3]
Filming[edit]
Production for the series' pilot began in New York City in October 2017.[21] The following episodes of the first season were expected to begin production in February 2018.[15] Murphy directed the series' first two episodes[1] and Mock directed the sixth, thus making her the first transgender woman of color to write and direct any episode of television.[22]

Marketing[edit]
On April 12, 2018, FX released the first teaser trailer for the series. It was also announced that the series was set to premiere on June 3, 2018.[23] On May 3, 2018, the first official trailer was released.[24]
Premiere[edit]
On May 17, 2018, the series held its world premiere at the Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan.[25][26]
Influences[edit]
While a work of creative fiction, the series is "heavily inspired by" Jennie Livingston's 1990 documentary, Paris Is Burning.[27] Several of the houses and characters are based on, or named after, real people, and several people featured in the documentary also make cameos in the series, such as Jose Gutierez Xtravaganza, the inventor of voguing, who plays a judge on the pilot episode, and Sol Pendavis Williams, of the House of Pendavis.[28] Creators and producers of the series such as "Murphy, Canals and writer/producer Janet Mock all consider Paris Is Burning a text that helped inform not only the show, but also their identities when they first saw it."[28]
Pose also expands on one of Paris Is Burning's subtler themes. At various points in the film, Livingston contrasts the drag performers with ordinary, affluent New Yorkers, walking down busy Manhattan sidewalks. It’s often hard to tell which of these two groups is more “real,” which of them are fashion models or Wall Street power players and which are simply costumed as such. Pose elaborates on those subtle distinctions with a subplot involving Stan (Evan Peters), a rising star in the Trump organization with an obnoxious boss (James Van Der Beek), a pretty wife (Kate Mara), and a secret relationship with Angel (Indya Moore), a trans woman. The show aims to capture some of the diversity of New York in the ‘80s, while also emphasizing the idea that, whether rich or poor, everyone in the city is pretending, in one way or another.[29]
Reception[edit]
Critical response[edit]
The series has been met with a positive response from critics upon its premiere. On the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds a 97% approval rating with an average rating of 7.67 out of 10 based on 60 reviews. The website's critical consensus reads, "Charged with energy, poise, and confidence, Pose pirouettes between artistic opulence and deliciously soapy drama to create a fresh new addition to Ryan Murphy's lexicon."[30] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the series a score of 75 out of 100 based on 27 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews."[31]
In a positive review, Vanity Fair's Richard Lawson was effusive describing the series as "an engaging portrait of dark days met with merriment. Pain and perseverance are sewn together to create something humble yet fabulous—and, it should be shouted over all the show’s loud and glorious clamor, very much long overdue."[32] In a similarly favorable critique, Vulture's Matt Zoller Seitz praised the series' ambition, aesthetic, and spotlight on minorities saying, "it shows American audiences a world that has never been visualized on television at this length and at such an obviously grand budget level. The camera swings and swoops, glides and tumbles as in a Scorsese epic like Gangs of New York; in both the outdoor street scenes and indoor crowd scenes, it’s obvious that FX has spared no expense to get the clothes, the cars, the streets, the business signs, and even the distinctive yellow-brown glow of streetlights correct."[33] In a more mixed assessment, Newsday's gave the series two-and-a-half stars out of four and described it far less approvingly saying, "good intentions don't always lead to good TV, and a couple episodes in, that appears to be the case with Pose. This certainly isn't bad TV — Murphy isn't about to leave his longtime home with a turkey — but it's often bland TV, and oddly enough, stock TV."[34] In a negative evaluation, Slate's Willa Paskin was outright dismissive saying, "It's a TV show from one of the most canny creators working today, yet as a viewing experience it can feel like an object lesson." He continued on specifically criticizing the show's character development saying, "So many of the people on Pose are strong women, trans paragons, and this comes at the expense of them being recognizably flawed human beings."[35]
