I hope you are able to enjoy is as a movie, even if it ends up not being what you hoped, if that makes sense?  You'll just have to see it, Twinless is well made and funny and often sad.
To me, documentary "Three Identical Strangers" is the best "Twin" movie. I  was quite close to someone involved in data acquisition for the study.

TUBITV.COM A jaw-dropping tale of three long-lost identical brothers who are joyously reunited, only to discover an unimaginable secret about their pasts.  

Yeah, writing a book probably means having something sensational to say.  But overall is this thread really claiming Geffen treated Armstrong poorly?  I don't see that.

Did anyone read the book Going Down in La La Land?  That had a sugar daddy character that some claim was allegedly based on Geffen.
Just thinking about Armstrong's prospects, he might look into a book deal, unless he signed an NDA.

Award shows are such an enigma.     
But if you do care that the most popular show in the States right now wins an award, then yes, Heated Rivalry qualifies for these.
 
 


 
With all the fame they've already won, winning awards isn't a must, IMO.

Yes, that was a nice scene, with his mom.
People get busy making content, such as this clip, below, which added their own choice of music.
It made me think how it was Ilya that encouraged Shane to immediately go see his parents, after being discovered by his dad.   
Ilya 's perspective had to be affected by having lost both of his parents.
 
 

Well I had a busy Christmas Day so avoided this topic until I watched Ep6 today. Call me very satisfied! Where will it go? Producers/writers often amaze me with the creativity they can take and run with. They also often amaze me how quick they can “jump the shark” fingers crossed 🤞🏻 they do justice to this story in future stories. Because this season was really good 👍🏻 

I was searching for a "gay" movie on Kanopy and found a documentary film about a Montreal based gay photographer, Alan B. Stone, (1928 - 1992) known mostly for his beefcake photos.  The film is called Eye on the Guy: Alan B. Stone and the Age of Beefcake.
The film itself painted a much more in-depth story than just erotic photos.  If you like photography, history and a good documentary, I recommend it.  
After some Internet surfing I learned that many thousands of his negatives along with photographs and other of his memorabilia are archived in Montreal at the Quebec Gay Archives.   
An Alan B. Stone exhibition was curated at The International Center of Photography in NYC many years ago
by David Deitcher.  He was originally from Montreal.  Deitcher said.....
“Those pictures had the uncanny effect of conjuring feelings of terror and desire which cleaved my adolescence.
Stone’s photographs captured the city not only as I saw it, but as I longed to experience more of it.”
 
Deitcher released a book about Stone photography which I ordered. 
I doubt if I will make it to Montreal anytime soon to see the archives so am looking forward to the book.
 
Here is a nicely done essay written by Deitcher about Montreal and photography.
 
 
 

I just finished Epi 6.  I'm satisfied. ❤️
MUSIC
I enjoyed the Heated Rivalry music and just learned there is a Heated Rivalry soundtrack on Spotify and a playlist on YouTube, for those interested.
The Epi 6 intro hits at about 6 minutes with a French song I love called L'anarchie des jours heureux, by a performer from Montreal called La Bronze, a Moroccan-Canadian musician and actress.   
 
 
I love the dramatic music choice, for the scene where Scott comes out on the ice, that plays through to Ilya's "I'm coming to the cottage" at the end of Epi 5, called I'll Believe in Anything by Wolf Parade, an indie rock band from Montreal.
 
 

I started epi 2.
Will Hollander's mom turn out to be a homophobic, greedy beeotch?   Would be more interesting if she was banging one of the Russians.  Slutty mom!  Secrets!!
I appreciate the sex scenes were produced by people that actually know how it works.  😃
Kudos to Crave and HBO.  ❤️

Yeah, some folks like to complain and nitpick.  Other fans are psychopaths.  Having social media handlers is a good idea.  I wonder if that is a thing. 🙂
We can put the complainers and psychopaths on ignore though, instead of engaging with them.
Asking Hudson and Corrie personal questions about their life irritates me.  I don't want to know or need to know more than they are willing to portray in their vlogs.
The GQ article hinted that the boys aren't really raking in big money, that the Crave production was relatively small.  Kudos for their success and taking full advantage of the HBO exposure!!
The last episode is coming up in a matter of hours, and then this will die down until Season 2, sometime in 2027.

The Internet is buzzing over the performances in Episode 5.  IMDB rating for the episode is currently at 2nd highest ever for a TV show episode. 
Connor and Hudson both signed with Creative Artists Agency.  Fans are speculating where their fortunes will lead, eg HBOs The White Lotus.
The Canadiens showed a Heated Rivalry trailer on their jumbo Tron during Pride Night in Montreal.

Exactly!
By now I wonder if Netflix is regretting dropping Boots!   
No use crying over spilled milk.
At least we get Season 2 of Heated Rivalry.😃
 
 

The ensemble's Ave Maria by Franz Biebl is one of my Christmas must-listens - I hope they included it in the program! 

I felt emotions well up.
Folks at a sports bar in WEHO got excited.

I'm glad the Ilya Rozanov drama includes the fallout he could face back in Russia.  That's an important piece these days.

But that unique and rare McNUGGETS & dipping sauce chemistry that soars and sings …
