I never understood this whole step porn thing, but this is ridiculous lol
It cheap to make. The "story" is simple but explains why these two people live in the same house without it being incest.
It's also probably relatable to a significant portion of the audience. I wager a fair number of people have experienced a relationship or wanted a relationship stemming from that situation.
Through no choice of yours or theirs, suddenly you are spending a lot of time with someone. From some perspective 'relatives', but pratically speaking you have a stranger who is your age move in and you are both 15 to 17 and things happen.
I had a not-blood relation suddenly happen when we were both sixteen, and we ended up dating for a bit. A bit more removed than 'siblings', but close enough to spend a lot of time together.
I'm sure that's partly true. In my experience, that's just most of what's tagged as "reality", so any other situation with anything resembling a storyline takes digging. No wonder I couldn't get into it.
