‘Pose’ and ‘WandaVision’ Lead Dorian TV Award Nominations

The gays have spoken!

FX’s Pose and Disney+’s WandaVision led the second annual Dorian Award nominations yesterday. Mj Rodriguez landed a nomination alongside GALECA Dorian Award winner, Billy Porter. The other nominees for Best TV Drama are Bridgerton, The Crown, Lovecraft Country, and P-Valley. WandaVision missed out on TV Movie or Miniseries, but it did land a nod for the social media sensation “Agatha All Along” for Best TV Musical Performance.

There are some inspired nominations here. Callum Scott Howells for It’s a Sin. Ziwe for Best Current Affairs Show. I May Destroy You didn’t hit very hard at the recent guilds, but it’s coming back strong!
