access_fandomHeated Rivalry, the Canadian show about queer hockey romance, is popping up all over Dreamwidth (as well as every other platform). The Squeaky Wheel, which bills itself as "the first-ever satire publication that focuses on the experience of having a disability" channels The Onion as it mocks our disabled lives. Here’s their first take on the series:
Audio Description Ruins Family TV Night During Unexpected Sex Scene - The Squeaky Wheel
[hero photo not reproduced here; its alt text is "a family watching Heated Rivalry"]
A recent family TV night at the household of 14-year-old Sarah Mason ended abruptly when the audio description began to vividly relay the details of an unexpected and lengthy sex scene.
“It went on and on about the positions, and how much pleasure was on their faces, and so much ‘thrusting,’” said Sarah’s mother, Beverly Mason. “It was excruciating. I shut it off and told everyone to go to bed.”
I'd love to learn whether Heated Rivalry's audio description is as sexy as the Squeaky Wheel would have it.
