Bear tattoo this, loon tattoo that... I imagine Shane with a very sensible, small lily flower tattooed on his ring finger meanwhile Ilya struts around with a PROPERTY OF SHANE HOLLANDER 24 tramp stamp
Hudson Williams & Connor Storrie of #heatedrivalry X @vanityfair
jacob tierney pointing out that tv doesn't have a lot of sex right now and that a lot of the sexual content we actually do see is rape, and that the reason why heated rivalry's sex scenes work so well is because the characters are actually equals and into each other...yeah we need more people like him as showrunners
Yuna Hollander puts Kris Jenner to shame. Momager of the year. She went from ‘I thought you hated Rozanov?’ to ‘You two homos should collab and get big money’, in two seconds flat.
No one is doing it like her.
I really appreciate how many female characters there are in Heated Rivalry. It's a story about two men on male hockey teams but there are pretty much as many supporting female characters as male. Fully half of Kip's friends are women, pretty much Ilya's only named friend is Svetlana, and Shane's biggest supporter is his mother. Even with Hayden, they make a point to include his wife even though he doesn't have a huge amount of screen time himself. A lot of shows that nominally have straight relationships don't even make a point to include so many female characters and it's refreshing that they integrate women into the story where they can even though it's a story about two men, set in a very male centric world.
I just want to make sure everyone who is enjoying Heated Rivalry knows Letterkenny exists.
FULL of women. Lots of women of color by the way. In this town of 5,000 people.
MANY of the characters in that rural Canadian town are, in some flavor, queer. In this town of 5,000 people.
Are they queer because they're swingers? Are they queer because they're poly? Are they queer because they're gay/lesbians? Are they queer because they have zero interest in any kind of sex? Are they queer because they are outside of traditional patriachal norms (as Trish the women's studies professor explains to Squirrly Dan and Squirrly Dan brings back to Wayne and Dale)?
TAKE YOUR FUCKING PICK.
But my point is that you are dealing with Jacob Teirney - a man who spent roughly 12 and 2 seasons writing shows about Hockey and Rural Life - what on the surface SEEMS profoundly masculine - but then turns out...
OH HEY! LOOK AT ALL THESE LADIES THEYDIES AND GAYDIES!
I am begging on my KNEES that fandom goes and looks at what Jacob Tierney has done. He's genuinely one of the best creators in TV right now.
Waitasec woah! Heated Rivalry has not been on my to-watch list, primarily because the only TV time I get is also family time, and I am NOT watching this show sitting next to my 14 year old son. It's just not happening. But you're telling me the showrunner (?) for HR is the same dude that did Letterkenny?
I may have to put it on a list of things to download and watch when the kid is at a friend's house, or something.
These two were in a throuple with her
There is an entire EPISODE about how the relationship doesn't work if she isn't dating BOTH of them.
Their most important relationship is with each other. It's platonic, they don't want to fuck each other? But they dont have anyone they care about more. Their ideal relationship is one woman they share so they can share a life.
Jacob Tierney's whole...thing? Has been writing "hey you know how homosocial hockey society is weird and fucked up and kinda queer - not even necessarily men fucking each other but just...men creating male societies that are Not Straight?"
Coach is part of that too. How he has no concept of how to interact socially since his wife died because she was the only woman he was connected with and since the the only interactions he has are with the hockey players? And that's it? That's his circle?
Heated Rivalry is a part of that. It's part of Jacob Tierney and Jared Keeso's...whole...EVERYTHING. They're both so deep in the hockey world had have been their entire lives and it shows in everything they've ever written because they love it so much.
But Jacob really kept the queer lens in there tight and we love him for that.
every day I get closer to watching Heated Rivalry and this may have just tipped me over the edge!!!
I am laughing so hard at myself right now because people have been sharing HR content on my dash pretty much wall to wall and I just now realized I didn't recognize him with short hair.
Welp. Shit. Guess I know what I'm watching next.
people born in 2000 should be like 12-14 now. but they’re not. that’s how fucked up our world is now
The older this post gets the funnier it becomes
My cousin born in 2000 is a licensed psychologist.
that’s how fucked up our world is now
Hollanov gifs by @rozanovs
The camera zooming in on Shane and Ilya when they sing the word “sunshine” kills me
They want their sunshine too 😭

Word of the Day (1452 words) by takeitteezy Chapters: 2/? Fandom: Heated Rivalry (TV) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Shane Hollander/Ilya Rozanov Characters: Shane Hollander, Ilya Rozanov Additional Tags: ilya talks shane through it, Ilya Rozanov Loves Shane Hollander, POV Ilya Rozanov, Flirting, Fluff and Smut, Blowjobs, shane is a slut for learning Summary: Ilya first notices it in the bathroom during the MLH awards. After Hollander had stormed off into the bathroom, Ilya had followed him, pushing his buttons until he’d finally calmed down. Letting him crowd in close and whisper promises for later. He saw a small smile creep onto Hollander’s face relishing in the feeling of being the one who put it there. Or Ilya realizes how much Shane likes his big vocabulary.
It's my 16 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
Shane’s soft “okay” after Ilya says they’ll talk after
Mr. Real Estate included :p
I’m getting the vibe that maybe I’m not…doing it for you.
