‘9-1-1’ showrunner Tim Minear says he’s a fan of ‘Buddie’ but stresses it shouldn’t be the show’s focus, as it’s not romance-centered like ‘Heated Rivalry’:
“It’s a very difficult subject because I love the Buddie fans, and I am one of them. It’s different than ‘Heated Rivalry’, where that is the show — the show is about two guys getting together. That’s not what this show is. This will probably piss off people, but whatever, this is what I think. I think the possibility of [Buddie] is what’s exciting.”
Hudson Williams tells Andy Cohen that he and ‘Heated Rivalry’ author Rachel Reid received private messages and emails from closeted pro-athletes sharing their experiences after the show debut:
“It’s definitely the people who reached out anonymously, who are like, ‘I’m still in the closet.’ Hockey players, football players and basketball players— those are the ones that really kind of hit you and [make you] go, ‘This is a fun show, and it’s celebratory, but it sometimes just hitting people right in the nerve.’”

every generation sees their culture fade into the past & change into something else. it’s inevitable. but now it seems like instead of changing into another form of culture, what’s fading away is the concept of having a culture itself. we’re on a trajectory to *only having jobs*.
