Bryan Cogman for (“A Night of the Seven Kingdoms”), Game of Thrones
Sally Wainwright for (“I Was Just Passing”), Gentleman Jack
Jacquelyn Reingold for (“The One with Lucca Becoming a Meme”), The Good Fight
Ryan Murphy & Brad Falchuk & Steven Canals for (“Pilot”), Pose
Ryan Murphy & Janet Mock for (“Love is the Message”), Pose

AND THE WINNER IS:


RYAN MURPHY & JANET MOCK FOR ("LOVE IS THE MESSAGE"), POSE

This is the first win and nomination for Janet Mock. This is the second win and fifthteeth nomination for Ryan Murphy. He previously won for producing Glee (2010). He was also nominated for producing American Horror Story (2012-2013), The Normal Heart (2014), American Crime Story (2016, 2018), Feud: Bette and Joan (2017), directing Nip/Tuck (2004), Glee (2009), The Normal Heart (2014), Feud: Bette and Joan (2017) and writing Glee (2010), Feud: Bette and Joan (2017) & Pose (2019).

Ryan Murphy is one of the most innovative television creators of the 2010's. While not everything he produces is perfect just about everything he puts his name behind is important. Pose as a series is a natural progression for Murphy and his inclusiveness that he features in his series. The fact that Murphy is a powerhouse in television and he can give opportunities to those considered minorities is an impressive act. Janet Mock an artist who I'd not been familiar with before Pose has really made an impact on me by her talent for directing/writing,producing that she showed in the first season of Pose. This standout writing episode was the standout episode of the season and as with most great Pose episodes featured great drama and great joy in the characters of this ballroom scene accomplishing such great feats in a time period when members of the community being represented where going through such hard times.
