they pitched me the idea of a black comedy show about small-town sniping in seventeenth-century Puritan America, in which it is only gradually revealed that the small town is Salem and the reason Ann and Mary keep getting into fights over floral arrangements on the church beautification committee is Still Because Of That Time Grandma Was Executed For Witchcraft.

I would watch the hell out of this. It sounds absolutely delightful in a horrifying, horrifying way. Are Puritans allowed to have floral arrangements in church? That sounds like the kind of thing Puritans might think was too Papist. Maybe one of them wants floral arrangements and the other is on Team Floral Arrangements Are Papist and So Was Your Grandma and Team Yay Floral Arrangements is like YOU ALREADY HAD GRANDMA EXECUTED FOR WITCHCRAFT AND NOW YOU'RE COMING BACK WITH AN ACCUSATION THAT IS *EVEN WORSE* HOW DARE.
