Thanks for sharing the moment and observations. Got thrown by the TBP in the middle paragraph. Is that supposed to be TPB, I’m assuming?
And I have tried to watch TPB once or twice, having spent some time in Canada. Sadly, I could not appreciate the subtleties as you have. Still, it’s not as hard to watch as ‘La Petite Vie’.

even though i don’t know this person, i still enjoyed reading that you were able to connect with a star on their real level, not their character level. awesome.

Oops, yes, it was supposed to be TPB. Damnit. Thank you!
