A Rivalry Becomes a Long-Term Relationship With the Schedule
· New York time
Heated Rivalry, Crave's hockey romance starring Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams, has two more six-episode seasons and a movie in the works, sources told Deadline. The report says the series is filming seasons two and three as well as the film. For fans waiting for the second season, the reported plans offer considerably more than a single return date. They suggest that the story is being extended across both television episodes and a feature, with a devoted audience already invested in its characters. The distinction matters for the calendar: these are projects in the works, not episodes that have already arrived. Six episodes per season also gives each installment a defined length, even as the overall commitment grows. A romance built around rivalry has become the kind of property that inspires long-range planning. The players may be accustomed to opponents, but the production schedule is firmly on the same team. Fans asked for more time with the characters and got enough planned ice time to start thinking about a second pair of skates.
