It's really important to distinguish between Scott’s coming out and the current situation facing Shane and Ilya; the stakes are fundamentally different. Scott's revelation was spontaneous, but his exit was timed. He came out once he met his professional goals and was ready to retire. His four-year delay (only 8 months in the book) after his breakup with Kip proves he wasn't ready to come out until he knew that his professional legacy was safe. This doesn't make his coming out any less beautiful and brave, just different than Shane and Ilya's situation. Shane and Ilya are both active MLH rivals in their prime. Their relationship doesn't just affect their personal lives; it invites scrutiny regarding the 'integrity' of the game. Every play between them would be analyzed for bias or 'fixing,' potentially costing them the trust of their fans, teammates, and the league. Furthermore, unlike Scott's soft landing in North America, for Ilya, who was the captain of the Russian Olympic team, it's a matter of life and death. Coming out/being outed isn't just a PR scandal; it’s a safety crisis. If he lost his American contracts, without citizenship, he'd be forced back to a dangerous situation in Russia, potentially facing the loss of legal safety and the threat of physical violence. It's extremely important to note that Scott's courage in coming out directly enabled the relationship Ilya and Shane now share. Without his bravery, Ilya would not have envisioned a future with Shane, the cottage would be out of reach, and their love would never have had the chance to bloom.

Its difficult to explain how much this show has meant to me. It has brought me so much joy and makes me want to fall in love again.

I would definitely tune in to a rewatch with Darkwave.

I cast my vote for a rewatch too! And a readthrough of the books would be amazing if you have the time. Maybe it could be your 15k subscriber prize? Whatever you decide, I really appreciate you watching this show and sharing your experience with us. Also side note, I just discovered your Disco Elysium playthrough and have been thoroughly enjoying that too!

That Dream Daddy tank top is perfection! I can't believe we haven't been blessed with it before! Such a vibe! 😍 I always enjoy your content Austin but I can't tell you how much I appreciated you covering this show especially. It was such a television highlight for me last year!! It was also lovely to see that despite the show being a romance, you still approached it with the same level of respect and engagement as you do with all your other content. Totally agree. I'm happy to play the long-game until 2027 if it means we maintain quality! Thank goodness we have TVL this year!!! 🩷

Perfect comment, agree with everything. It's everything I wanted to say about how and why Shane and Ilya aren't ready to just come out and be public with their relationship.

It's not a re-watch. It's a reheat. And yes please. :-) And Dude... you cut the credits off too soon. Go back and watch the final shot. A beautiful role-reversal!

Thank you so much for your reaction and welcome to the cottage!! Can’t wait to see more of them in 2027. i swear time could not be passing slower. I wanted to add that, You have become my favorite reactor in a day and i plan to binge watch everything. Please check out interviews with these two they are amazing and really great duo, definitely will get laughs out of you and it always makes me jump to see connor/illya differences. ( If you upload those reactions that would be really fun too i love any content evolving around these two).

What a silly silly show. Speaks volumes about our society. Empty and for the short minded. Enjoy!

Btw. Great that you only pay attention to comments that supports the show. It shows a lot of critical thinking.

No need for insults. I've been engaging with comments, just avoiding rabbit holes of arguments that have been plaguing me with anxiety. I have *always* read your comments in previous videos and only hesitated recently as I didn't want you catching any more heat than you already had been.
