That wasn't in the book! | Off Campus review

Welcome back to Solo Movie Dates, the podcast that usually celebrates the absolute joy of hitting the cinema by yourself! But today, Natalie is diving into a very special, highly anticipated Solo TV Date to Off Campus Season 1.

We are talking about Prime’s brand-new hockey romance adaptation: Off Campus Season 1. Having just binged the series (and spent the last two weeks rereading Elle Kennedy’s beloved books), Natalie has thoughts. From the jaw-droppingly gorgeous cast to the agonizing lack of actual on-screen chemistry, we are breaking down why this adaptation feels less like a passionate romance and a bit more like a passionless, hockey-heavy dead fish.

We’re breaking down the good, the bad, the bizarre product placement, and why we desperately need for shows to stop spoon-feeding us crumbs. Grab your apple headphones, and let's get into it!
