one couldn't die for you

William Fichtner as Jasper and Nicholas Denton as Guy Anatole

And frankly even despite that, I always thought IWTV to be very popular. I knew about all the characters despite being on the periphery. It's considered one of the best TV shows in the past decade, and I'd wager even over a decade. A lot of people know about it, even if they haven't watched it.

We just have to live with the fact that this genre not being everyone's cup of tea is a contributing factor to its more "Niche" status(i hesitate to even call it niche, it has such a HUGE fandom).

People who are comparing it to Heated Rivalry in particular confuse me, because it's way too early to tell if HR is going to have longevity. IWTV definitely has longevity. It's still being talked about among people. HR has been out for like, a month. Who knows how people will talk about it in the future, or if they would at all?

Like don't get me wrong, I like HR, but it's in the same vein as RWRB. Sure, people are hyped when it drops, but it's not going to be talked about or watched 10, 20 years down the line. IWTV is such a longstanding, established thing which has genuinely impacted pop culture and queer media, and the show continues to do that.
