The Heated Rivalry premiere wastes absolutely no time turning the tension all the way up. From the very first scene, the chemistry between Shane and Ilya is magnetic, messy, tender, and downright explosive. It’s sexy, beautifully shot, and emotional; It’s the kind of queer sports drama that hooks you instantly and refuses to let go. If this premiere is any indication, we’re in for a wildly addictive season.

Alexandra Daddario shines as always, and while there’s room for improvement (looking at you, cheesy magic effects), the season starts with a captivating foundation.
