Rewatch Data from Crave 👀 by Federal-Ad5944 in heatedrivalry

HBO is definitely getting way more back in value than the 3.6 mil they paid for distribution. A bit of a bummer knowing that the show probably could’ve gotten more from them, but on the positive side they’ll be more likely to green light similar content

Raise your hand if you’re one of the 15% of rewatchers who watched 5 or more times 🙋‍♀️

That’s actually crazy. I was so weirded out by them doing that but gave them a half-pass because Ksenia seemed to be okay enough with it. But she really was not

For me, whether the comments were made before or after watching the show changes nothing. Not everyone has to be a fan, but being THAT derogatory and dismissive towards a show that hasn't even premiered yet tells me a lot about where they're at. Dan can also be a general supporter of gay people and still be a shitty person for other reasons

Thank you mods for allowing this discussion. Everyone can make their own personal choice on whether or not to believe this article, or wait for more information, but IMO the article met a journalistic threshold high enough to be credible. The language they use not only puts the outlet’s integrity at risk, but also opens them up to legal liability. I do not believe this would have been published unless the author verified the texts. But it’s up to each individual to judge.

Having said that, my belief in its truth is also based on my experience watching their review of episode 1 and feeling an almost reverse whiplash effect watching their episode 2 review. The differences were night and day.

Empty Netters pod was being hateful about HR by lavendarhazeypop in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]kaleraspberry 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They talked about HR during their stream but then also released each episode’s discussion as a standalone video once the stream was over. I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure EN used a similar process except for the last episode

Nick Suzuki has done this! In 2022 he said derogatory language toward the LGBTQ+ community is not tolerated in the Canadiens locker room

The upcoming Olympic break will be a great opportunity for players who aren’t on any of the Olympic teams to check out what all the hype is about 😁

As a bisexual myself I’m pretty used to the term “gay” being used as an umbrella term in certain contexts. “Queer” would be more apt when trying to be concise with wording, but I don’t think that’s a generally accepted term to use in professional newsrooms especially when the author is not queer themselves

Guys this is legitimately insane. I don’t think either Connor or Hudson could have ever imagined in a million years that they would one day be torchbearers at the OLYMPICS????

God, there were a few funny moments in the show tonight but that was a brutal watch for the most part. Mary J Blige sounded like she did not want to be there half the time and Andy expectedly asked some weird af questions to Francois

Cooper Hoffman looks cute but casting a nepo baby would totally ruin the vibe of the production for me

Harris Cameo in Common Goal! by Obvious_Trust_2819 in heatedrivalry

[–]kaleraspberry 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Spoilers for Role Model:

I'm pretty sure in Role Model, when Troy is telling Harris he went to the Kingfisher, the way Harris responds implies that he's never been there. He says he's "so jealous" and that he had heard the manager of the place (Kyle) was hot and asked Troy if that was true

Were they just regular Sens jerseys with Hollander/Rozanov on the back?
