Beautiful, beautiful place and a great value for those prices!! It's absolutely going to booked up for years given the rabid fans of the books/series.

For an extra fee, you can be surprised by an intruder at an uncomfortable moment not of your choosing. 😲

We finally had the time to watch this. I admit to being surprised by the level of acting work done by the two stars. And, like every series with a perfect ending, I expect they'll ruin the effect with more episodes.

The Olympic Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena includes a stadium organ.  Watching the game today, I noticed the organ medley playing included the refrain from All the Things She Said, on a loop.

This is not enough

I know hockey arenas in many places play All the Things She Said.  That the Olympic venue joined the homage to Heated Rivalry was extra cool.  👏🏻

The men's gold medal game will be on Sunday.  It may seem apropos for Heated Rivalry fans that Canada will compete in the gold medal match.

 

Circling back to the Olympics and Heated Rivalry,  Connor Storrie hosted SNL tonight.

Members of the USA men's and women's gold medal teams appeared alongside Connor.

 

Hudson Williams made a surprise appearance.  Was pretty good. 👍🏻

SNL with Storrie had a few good moments. But it seemed like all SNL shows these days, kinda MEH.

Nice to see Connor and Hudson together for a few moments. They really seem to get along well.

I noticed they have made a sequel to movie, Red, White, and Royal Blue.  That was a mildly entertaining story with two very attractive guys who fall in love. But there was little if any nudity. I don't remember seeing even half an ass. And the "sex scene" was very unrealistic.

Just wondering if the success of Heated Rivalry encouraged the powers that be in that movie to up their game a bit and make the sequel a bit more spicy. Here's hoping, because the two main characters were very good looking.

The show was hosted by “Heated Rivalry” actor Connor Storrie, and at the end of his monologue, the Hughes brothers joined him on stage and pretended they had no idea what “Heated Rivalry” was about.

“We’ve been so busy playing, we haven’t had time to see your show yet. It’s about hockey, right?” Jack said, through some missing teeth after being high-sticked late in the third period of the gold-medal game.

“Kind of,” Storrie deadpanned.

“I got my teeth knocked out in the finals. Does that happen in your show?” Jack said.

“Metaphorically,” Storrie, with a wink, said.

“What team do you play on?” Quinn asked.

When told the Boston Raiders, Jack asked what league that was in.

“The HBO,” Storrie joked.

I agree. I thought Connor did well in his skits. But the skits just weren't that funny. Even Weekend Update which I normally enjoy wasn't that funny. I realize the attack on Iran is topical. And I may just be an old fuddy-duddy. But people are dying over there.  I don't really think it's an appropriate subject for comedy.
