""We're going to see what's feasible. If [ Jacob Tierney, the showrunner] can find a way to make the source material work in a way that gets us something sooner or something special, I'm sure he will. "I would love to have this back for the holidays next year, but that likely is not going to happen. We can't rush the process. We won't be able to repeat the magic if we push him.""

Heated Rivalry is a Canadian LGBTQ+ sports drama that premiered at the end of November and quickly became a hit. The series follows rival ice hockey players Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, portrayed by Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, who engage in a secret affair and fall in love. Season two was greenlit before season one finished airing. The show's impact inspired viewers to come out, including hockey player Jesse Kortuem. The concept of a stand-alone episode to bridge seasons one and two has "come up". Bell Media is assessing feasibility while emphasizing that production cannot be rushed to preserve the show's quality; a holiday return next year is considered unlikely. Jacob Tierney has written "zero" scripts for season two to date.
