Title: FX's 'Pose' Ratings Low - Why Aren't People Watching?
Post by: Bulldagger on June 21, 2018, 07:38:05 PM
Why y'all not watching? Dineva says homophobia. I'm personally sick and tired of faggie BS being the gay focal point.

QuoteNew series ?Pose? on FX and ?Succession? on HBO started fairly quietly, each finishing out of the top 25. Both had 0.2 ratings in adults 18-49; ?Pose? had 688,000 viewers and ?Succession? 582,000.

POSE seems like a show that would work better on Netflix (streaming platforms).

Lol, I do like being gay.  There's a uniqueness to it. I just hate the notion that being gay means being effeminate and rendered less of a man by default. We need variation, especially POC.

nobody likes a masculine gay man in ENTERTAINMENT

I mean, everyone knows straight men in general are boring

Nobody wants to see a bunch of gays that are 'straight acting' on TV. Trust me.

They clearly don't wanna see fags in skirts and heels and bad makeup death dropping in fried wigs. We've had enough.

i think people don?t wanna see one specific thing, they want to see diversity. Just like a show full of nothing but whites wouldn?t do well. Like Dineva said, the black LGBT community isn?t that big and I don?t think the average straight person cares to watch a show with characters they can?t relate to. So sadly that means gay mess within straight mess like 13 Reasons Why, which I believe is doing it right.

I don't really care much for drag or drag culture. It's not all the gay community is. I've seen fags on Facebook go up for this show and I don't see the appeal.

I saw the first episode and thought it was pretty good. The storyline can be relatable to anybody that's ever felt like an outsider or like they weren't accepted.

It probably won't be succesfuly due to the cast being primarily black and the black community will not throw their support behind this. They tend to act like anything LGBT is contagious. If you see too much of it or around it long enough then you're going to become one. Smh.

No one wants to see this mess. Now if they start telling BLACK gay mess and stop whitening up black stories then they'd have something.

Ballroom culture and drag culture are vastly different things. Modern drag culture was born out of the ballroom scene. The show is not about drag culture. In fact, none of the characters introduced thus* far are drag entertainers. Let?s be clear. You may not like the show, but please don?t conflate two distinct arenas of expression.

I hope the show gains some legs or gets moved to a streaming platform. It has potential and representation of LGBTQiA POCs in the media is important.

Then we can get into the homophobia.

then the fact that fags are really drawn into naked bodies and sex and don't care about SCRIPTS

POSE seems like a show that would work better on Netflix (streaming platforms).
Agreed. and this may have been said already, but America is always always late to the party, and slow to accept new ideas and people from all walks of life

America is just now kinda sorta accepting gay men and women kissing each other on television. Trans men and women will have to wait a few more years i suppose, in order to fully catch on as an ensemble and gripping REAL and relatable story. But i do not want them to give up on this one. Pose is special and im so happy for Janet Mock being one of the main writers there

I don't really care much for drag or drag culture. It's not all the gay community is. I've seen fags on Facebook go up for this show and I don't see the appeal.
that isnt what this is  :dead: u dont know the difference between drag and what this show is digging into? im surprised at you.

And the ratings are also low because huge names arent attached to it. If some top white actress was portraying a trans woman instead of the actual women they got for this show, then there would be even more buzz around it.

it doesnt seem interesting and i LOVE drag and drag culture .. but if i wanna see a tranny or a drag queen ill go to a drag i dont need to watch it on tv

Ballroom culture and drag culture are vastly different things. Modern drag culture was born out of the ballroom scene. The show is not about drag culture. In fact, none of the characters introduced thus* far are drag entertainers. Let?s be clear. You may not like the show, but please don?t conflate two distinct arenas of expression.

Black people won't watch it because they like to pretend that LGBT community doesn't exist most of the time and white people won't watch it cause it's a predominantly POC cast.

I agree, send the mess to Netflix or Amazon Prime.

I think the overarching theme of centering one of the most oppressed groups in existence  (poor Black and Brown queer/trans youth) is the primary reason folks aren't really tuning in. I also echo the sentiments of most of the folks in here.


For me though, it just wasn't good--granted I was only 2 episodes in but it just felt inauthentic.

It felt like everything was being thrown out at once to pull on the heart strings of folks without organically getting a feel for the characters. Beat up, kicked out, bust in the head with the bible! get aids! Like dayum can I get a feel for the character first without all of the clich? issues that we know will come throughout the show.

Then it didn't help that the acting really isn't that good, im sorry. I cringed during most of the scenes that I did see. It also doesn't help that you can tell the writers are oriented towards making these sassy catch phrases for memes or sticking power.

It isn't really gritty enough. It's like white washed to me. Like if a white man painted themselves as a trans black youth and walked into this glamorous life of competition and community.

The music is great though and I do love seeing diversity in television. Hopefully it does get picked up by some real black ass folks on Netflix cause its a no from me as it stands now.

I?m not heavily into full fledged gay culture like that. So don?t know much about the whole ballroom culture or the drag culture. It doesn?t appeal to me. No need to be surprised. I?d rather watch sports or read articles in regards to psychology.
