On the one hand, if anyone had gotten sick, it surely would have spread fast. On the other hand, most folks working on a production are living paycheck to paycheck. So I was worried about how they are going to survive.

The show’s co-creator Steven Canals went on to reveal that changes are on the horizon when production resumes. He told Variety:

The place on our show where the biggest impact will be felt will be the ball scenes: Those scenes have 125 to 150 background actors. That’s tricky, because that’s such an important and critical part of our show and the narrative. We’re just, only now, having conversations of ‘Is there a world where we forgo these things?’”

Their words come as lead MJ Rodriguez, who plays Blanca Evangelista, lost both her grandmother and aunt to the global health crisis.

I love this show. It’s amazing. Great job on recreating the 80’s and the 90’s. Your right on point!!!! I’m a lady, and I’m jealous of all the ladies on the show. They have banging bodies and make me feel ashamed at times. Keep up the great work Mr.Canalas et al. I’m going to be in the Brooklyn area specifically Bedford Stuyvesant area. Will you be filming? Please advise via email. Ty.
I watched this show back to back episode for episode for episode with my wife. We are excited to see the new season. They’ve done a wonderful job and every single fan will wait as long as we have to. This show changes perspectives and enhances unity within this entire fan base. Not only communities who share common interests but also people who aren’t familiar with that scenery. Thanks for all your determination and sincerity to us viewers!
This season should probably be the hardest season to watch as Blanca is now full blown and a few others like Ricky, Praytell and Electra(?) have been diagnosed with H**. We have lost an entire generation of amazingly talented and vastly creative people especially in the early 90s, so I hope the series will proceed accordingly- much to our dismay- by showing the dreadful and sad demise of the aformentioned and possibly more, like some members of the Council. Since this show is pretty authentic and real to the A*** crisis, then there will be some shocking moments, even more so than Candy’s murder. Man, how I wish that I could write one episode, or even just a scene on this show! It is so incredible. Looking forward to Season 3.
Why are the acronyms for Acquired Immune Deficiency and. Human Immunodeficiency V**** infection blocked on my post?! Seriously?!

One of the best shows on tv and the best on IPlayer. I love the story and characters. Brilliant acting and real life drama.
I love this show so much!! And i been waiting checking all listings i cant wait for yall to come back!! But in the meantime stay safe #POSE #TEAMBLANCA
I’m ecstatic about Pose it helps me understand what my brothers left our small town in MO for. They died of A*** in 91 & 98 thank you for this show I constantly watch the first two seasons and think of my brothers. Again thank you with love!
It’s hard for a small town boy to hide his true self in am environment that condemns his very existence. Your brothers were able to experience freedom during their short lifetime. God bless you for being a loving sister. My condolences to you on your loss. May they forever live in your heart.
I like the show, and I appreciate that the kissing scenes will be cut back on.
The show is so much better than that. Thank you.
I am sorry to hear about MJ’s loss. Hope the cast and crew stay safe.
I wish I was rich. I would pay the check to check peeps wages. I live that life too. I really love this show.
Can’t we be creative in making this happen the world is waiting
