The best directed TV show of 2025 is a queer hockey romance from Canada called Heated Rivalry.
And like the rest of the internet, host Alex Heeney has become quite a fan.
But she's been thinking a lot about what makes it good and what has made it popular, and how those two things definitely intersect, but the Venn diagram isn't just a circle.
So on today's episode, Alex talks about why she, too, was very excited for the cottage, why the show is hitting in this cultural moment, what still felt lacking — and how all of that sent her to rewatch Looking, a very different kind of show, to get the hit she was really craving.
