‘Pose’ makes people cry on ‘This Is Us’ levels and that’s lovely

In the world of entertainment, making people cry is in. One of the highest compliments anyone can give a TV show or movie is “I was sobbing by the end,” a recommendation that speaks to the show’s emotional quality and overall worthiness in the media landscape. 

The current king of making people weep their sweet, wanted tears is NBC’s This Is Us, a show that is so famous for hurting feelings that people make sure they have tissues on hand before viewing, but summer TV has its own queen of the cry in FX’s Pose.
