Finished Off Campus? Here's what to watch next

If you found yourself falling into a low-key obsession with Off Campus, you're far from the only one.

This book adaptation feels like it's taken over the internet, with gen-Zers and millennials alike getting hot and bothered watching the coming-of-age romantic drama.

From its refreshing body positivity and messaging on sex, consent and pleasure to its addictive chemistry and yearning between characters, this show has everyone talking.

Amazon Prime announced last week that the series reached a jaw-dropping 36 million viewers in its first 12 days online alone.

But if you're like me and now you've watched (and rewatched?) Hannah and Garrett's love story — and you're painfully aware that the final chapter of The Summer I Turned Pretty is still being filmed — we've pulled together some other romances to ease the withdrawals.

1. Starstruck (ABC iview)

Why you'll love it: It's a rom-com that comes with surprising emotional depth. There's also plenty of will-they-wont-they chemistry, witty banter and relatable laugh-out-loud awkwardnesses. It's also free to stream — bonus!

Keep an eye out for: Jessie's meme-worthy post-sex dance in season one, episode two.

Yearn rating: 🔥🔥🔥🔥

2. Heated Rivalry (HBO)

Why you'll love it: Two arch-rival athletes spend years insisting they're not in love, delivering next-level electric chemistry along the way. If you were hooked on the pining in Off Campus, prepare to have your mind blown.

Keep an eye out for: The hotel scenes and the All-Star Weekend in episode five. You'll see why everyone has become obsessed with these secret lovers.

Yearn rating: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

3. The Summer I Turned Pretty (Prime)

Why you'll love it: In case you haven't watched this already, this is a pure and swoon-worthy teen love triangle with enough of a slow burn to power your winter heating bill.

Keep an eye out for: Season two, episode five. All that tension will really start to pay off.

Yearn rating: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

4. Normal People (Stan)

Why you'll love it: Irish accents, emotional intensity and romantic tension with a side of steamy-yet-tender-and-complicated sex.

Keep an eye out for: The sex scenes in episodes seven and nine will get your heart racing, but should come with a trigger warning.

Yearn rating: 🔥🔥🔥🔥

5. Ghost (ABC iview)

Why you'll love it: OK, it's not a series, but supernatural chemistry paired with chest-aching levels of longing and old-fashioned romance will convince you that love really can conquer all.

Keep an eye out for: The pottery scene. You'll 100 per cent be adding the song to your playlist.

Yearn rating: 🔥🔥🔥🔥

6. Heartbreak High (ABC iview)

Why you'll love it: It's the OG version of Netflix's hit Australian series where all the teen angst and friendship drama comes with a healthy dose of 90s nostalgia.

Keep an eye out for: Season 5. Anita + Drazic 4eva.

Yearn rating: 🔥🔥🔥
