SEASON FINALE: The second season of Pose has covered a lot of ground, and the finale aims to wrap things up in equally memorable fashion. Pray Tell confronts an old trauma while preparing for a new category. Meanwhile, Bianca attempts to get House of Evangelista back together following a medical crisis. And as Ryan Murphy has revealed, the finale involves a significant time jump. 10:00 PM ET on FX
NEW EPISODE: The quarter finals continue on America's Got Talent, where viewers will learn which of the twelve performers — including three Golden Buzzer acts and a wild card — will continue in the competition as voting is turned over to the American public.
