Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But at least they won't get lung cancer!

I imagine any smokers on death row are rolling their eyes eternally.

It's Tuesday. There should be Buffy on my TiVo.

I'm going to go sit with Heather, in the perfect world.

Eh, in my actual world there's only Dallas. On the upside, Pam's about to fall out of the barn loft, so I have that.

Well, in the perfect world the last few seasons of Buffy wouldn't have been such huge disappointments, either. Anyway, hi!

Aw. I loved S6. Even more on rewatch. I haven't had a chance to finish 7, but I like Same Time, Same Place even with the creepy monster.

You weren't disappointed with magic is drugs?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think the rest of the pain made that secondary. As a plot point it bugged, but there was so much other heart rending familiar stuff going on, it had little effect on me.

Remember when, in S2, Angel went all evil? And, we (or most of us) went "Yep. Know that." That's what pretty much all of S6 was like for me.

ETA: Going to watch the TiVo. Not ignoring Alibelle whom I love and adore and would buy lots of pink, princessy things had I the money.

Supposing the Pope does die this time, he's apparently appointed so many of the College of Cardinals that his successor is bound to be like-minded.

I think there's been a lot of speculation about the new pope coming from a developing country, probably from Africa.

Not really. I didn't relate to what was going on at all, but that was still my favorite season because the storytelling was so strong. It was fascinating to watch. I guess that's why season six didn't work for me. Because inherently, the concept of the good guy going dark is not something that I relate to at all, so the way it's told had better work frighteningly well. And that's where I think the difference between the two seasons is.

Aww, Heather's the sweetest. Thanks for the thought. Enjoy the TiVo!
