Beau, Zoe and Clauds continue their deep dive into season 1 of Off Campus, the hockey romance book adaptation based on Elle Kennedy's series of the same name.

And was the platonic chemistry between the characters actually better than the romance? Let us know your opinions, pls!

The beloved BookTok phenomenon Off Campus has finally made its way to the screen. Is this actually a strong adaptation, or just another hockey romance dressed up for TV?
