I was very much into t.A.T.u when I was in my teens but I didn't realize I was gay back then lol. It took a decade later, I just thought I was a huge ally lmao. I really loved that last sequence. The lighting and all the cuts. I felt bad for both Shane and Ilya. I knew Sophie Nèlisse was coming, her and François Arnaud (Scott) were the two reasons I actually began watching the show (my two favorite Qebecois actors). I remember also Queer as Folk (from the 90's)having very strong gay scenes, before The L Word and I also remember people used to say The L Word was Queer as Folk for Lesbians at the time it aired. I only watched the first season of Queer as Folk when I was in college, long after the show was already over. I also watched South of Nowhere but that was so much tamer. And believe it ot not, I still thought I was a straight ally who enjoyed gay shows lmao. Coming out to myself took way too long. I really didn't want to be gay even while I fought with my family about how being gay was okay. Maybe I was waiting for my mom to agree so I could finally feel safe to let go and figure myself out. That never came but I moved out and far away from them and that helped.

We all thought we were allies at one point I think hahaha I haven’t watched Queer as Folk. I did reacted to an episode I think! Maybe I should get back to it! And South of Nowhere alongside The L word help me so much in coming to terms and believing I could live a good life even if I fell for a girl as well ♥️ We all have different journeys. I came out to my mom when the Pulse attack happened I think. I mean officially at least. But I came out to myself in my early 20s but I was in a straight relationship so I passed as straight and that was ok for a while too. But fully considering myself bi came a long way after that

I remember the Pulse attack. That was so awful and scary. I came out to my mom and most of my family and friends (as bi though we all know I'm gay) after my first girlfriend and I broke up. Me being in the closet was a huge source of the issues that led to our break up but after it was over I just began coming out to most of my closest friends and family. The loneliness became unbearable then.

During the scene between Shane and Ilya at the beginning of the episode, Shane freaked out partly because they called each other by their first names during the intimate scene when they always call each other by their last names. It shows how their relationship is progressing. Also, you can see that Ilya was really trying with Shane because he knows that Shane is super strict with his diet (microbiotic diet) and had everything for him prepared -- the ginger ale and the Tuna Melt. Shane was very surprised when he said "you want to make me a tuna melt?" Also, it was symbolic that Shane asked for a ginger ale multiple times over the course of the episode but Ilya was the only one to give it to him. I also think this episode kind of flipped the typical dynamics on their head because in episodes 1 and 2, it was Shane that was wanting more and Ilya being more stand off-ish and Shane was getting hurt. So, now I think that Shane has taken a step back but Ilya is the one putting himself out there. We can even see that with the sex scenes at the beginning of the episode where, now, Shane is the one on top and in the shower Ilya is the one on his knees. Also, Ilya goes home alone at the end of the episode and gets off by himself, thinking of Shane. Lastly, it is such a great juxtaposition how Shane is following Rose up the stairs at the end of the episode and looks like he is about to get a root canal, whereas at the beginning of the episode, Shane and Ilya are going up those same stairs but they are going up together and they are tangled up together and passionate, etc. Very different.

This is my favorite episode

I totally understand you, and this ep was incredible, looking forward to the next one!! PS: thank you for the lore about the final song, I love it!! :D

sadly if this show was about queer women it probably would've been canceled after one season. it's funny considering how common dating among teammmates is in women's sports. seems like typically only queer women actually consume wlw shows whereas stuff like this tends to get hyped by gay men, straight women, and queer women.

Gracie

love this show but also worth noting that this show's success also comes down to the cast being majority white. i get that it's realistic for hockey, but at the same time it feels like that the reason hockey has become so popular in the romance genre is because it is one of the least diverse sports.

JuliDG

It does seem a bit unfair but idk some ppl want the show to be over just bc of that and that’s not fair imo. Yes gay men should support wlw shows more but with the straights I don’t really count them as a favorable side of the fandom lol

JuliDG

I know nothing about Hockey tbh so it’s kinda bs on why is getting more attraction. They could definitely change that up tho since this is at the end of the day a tv series.

JuliDG

You had to be there for what t.A.Tu was for us queers back in the day hahaha I’m not that old btw haha

JuliDG

With that song at the end definitely my fave so far haha

JuliDG

OMG those little details make the episode even better!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! Please continue on every episode I love reading big comments like this one ♥️

JuliDG

Yeah I had a gf as well and we broke up bc of that too. I was just not ready. I am now but finding someone is so difficult since I get anxiety by just talking to any random person and dating apps are awful haha
