‘Pose’ – with fan devastation in tow after learning the MJ Rodriguez-led show was set to strut across screens for a third and final season this spring – went to ratings battle Sunday (May 2) with a double whammy of a season 3 kickoff.

As evinced by social media responses, the long-awaited return was showered with critical acclaim.  Refreshed Nielsen reports suggest that fanfare was reflected in ratings as well.
