First, I am not going to speak ill of the dead, let me say growing up Catholic, Francis is no John Paul II.

I guess ABC had this special in the "can" for a while now, to broadcast tonight.

John Paul II, died some 20 years, I don't remember a prime time special on his death.

> Francis: The People’s Pope <

Leftists sure do like to use the word “people” to hide reality.

North Korea: “The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea”.
ChiCom army: “The People’s Liberation Army”.

Etc.

He wasn't woke, and far from it. I know someone who wasn't even Catholic who felt compelled to grab a flight to Rome to attend his funeral. I don't hear anyone doing that for the last pope.

I have had zero idea what is on the network tv nightly schedule for over 25 years now.
i could not name a single current show..

I remember Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, Three’s Company was Tuesday night.
Love Boat was Saturday, Dukes of Hazzard was Friday...

The People’s Pope.

Those who remember Communist governments know how perfect this epithet is.

I feel the same way.
