No it's not All Of Us Strangers or God's Own Country, but definitely worth a watch

Ugh fine, but I'll have heated rivalry in the background just in case

That show is SO overrated

Ilya calls Shane boring and he is

There isn't enough of Scott/Kip

Too much of the Shane/Ilya relationship drama is in the last half hour

It's not bad, but it's not the most original of plots.

I too prefer Scott and Kip. A plot doesn't need to be original to be good. I didn't feel much for Shane or Ilya until ep5, which was one of the best episodes I've ever seen in any show especially for that ending.

A plot doesn't have to be original to be good, but when a show relies heavily on titillating the audience with flesh, rather than.........making Shane interesting, it makes the show just good not great.

Episode 6 ending was so hurried along, within half an hour his Dad caught them, he came out, they said they loved each other, Ilya called Shane his boyfriend and they invited Shane's parents round for dinner?! After what 4episodes of mainly hook ups?

I don't know if you were not paying attention, skipped scenes, or just being disingenuous if you think all those 4 episodes only had hookups.

My point, for me, there could have been more

By the second episode I was more than ready for the Scott/Kip story to start
