OTTAWA – After a universally beloved first season of ground-breaking television, Heated Rivalry season two has been green-lit with a story following two new hockey players hiding their in-infidelity from everyone around them.
“There’s this negative stigma around men like this,” explained showrunner Jacob Tierney. “Just because you don’t cheat on your spouse doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be accepted in hockey. It should be about how good you are at the game, and how braindead you are as a brand ambassador.”
While the story is entirely fictional, rumours say it is based on real events, following two currently unnamed characters who send each other secret texts about their carnal desire to remain with the person they married physically and emotionally. One of the women will also be a brunette, something very frowned upon in the NHL community.
There is already criticism building online for the upcoming season, as more liberal viewers object to the subject matter being shown on television. One comment on the story reads, “I don’t want to see that on my tv. I don’t care that they love each other, I just don’t want this ‘monogamy’ agenda pushed on me.”
“Of course there will be some very steamy sex scenes,” revealed Tierney. “While the first season faced some criticism, we are prepared for people to really be outraged by the idea of a hockey player loving his brunette wife on screen. Especially in a league where that is mocked and belittled.”
