Mad Men

[Ascf33]

I liked when Don called Blankenship "Ray Charles"

[MPizzle06]

Great great episode Don (apparently) did a lot of growing up, and Betty did a little bit of growing up

Seriously though...exercise? A diary?? Not drinking in the morning?!? Not sleeping with that woman?!?!?!?!? WTF??

Really a fantastic episode though, as usual

[ComeNFrmTheCold]

Really enjoying the stylistic shifts from episode to episode this season. Potentially could be the best season yet.

Well - in all fairness - Gene/Jean is an androgynous name.

Just added seasons 1-3 to my netflix queue.

I think the great thing about the show is just all the LITTLE moments throughout each episode that just really stick with you, like for example:

The competition in the pool
Crane's signed picture of Buddy Ebsen in his office
Don's introspective opening scene on the street
Don's flirtation with literature and writing finally taking form
Ash trays in the stalls
Don pausing a moment before trashing his stuff
BJ in the taxi
"and some slob who's about to have the worst dinner of his life"

This really is the best goddamn show on TV right now.

"You're a saint"

"Im an adult"


Awesome

God I love this Show...

Entourage needs to take note from Mad Men on how to do character arcs.

Can you imagine being a taxi driver while someone's doming it up in the back seat?

mad men is completely the opposite of entourage, and i love both shows. entourage is all about glitz and glamour and pretty things, mad men is a character driven period piece. character arcs are not important at all in show like entourage, which is why they are basically non existant.

Yes, but they try to do them...

Like Vince, he somehow went from doing Coke once at a part to 3 episodes later buying a pound, lol...

They could have at least made it more believable.

Sorry, back to the regular programming...

This show shits all over Entourage in literally every way possible, and I've seen every episode of both shows.

well, if you were a millionaire like vince and tried coke and liked it as much as he did, i dont find it hard to believe he would just go buy a pound.

but yeah lets stop talking about a pretty good show in the greatest show on tv's thread

yes...

Also, did anyone else want to Cunt-punch Betty at the restaurant?

[whygohome?]

i honestly do not care how big of a bitch betty is ever. i love looking at her and i wish she was in more episodes these days. that is literally my only complaint with this show.

[whygohome?]

sunday's episode was brilliant. this season might end up being the best.

i really cant stand henry. not sure why exactly but i just really dont like him. does anyone else see potential for don and betty getting back together? clearly betty is not over him at all and the way she was looking at don at the end of the episode really makes me wonder. it would be pretty stupid of her but idk it just seems like there is potential there.

also, joan has really been a huge bitch this season. she had a bit of a point when she went off on peggy but peggy usually has joan's back. she really had no reason to be such a cunt

[ComeNFrmTheCold]

Don just standing there looking all badass with his sunglasses and sports coat drapped over his shoulder. Then the Stones come on. Oh man. what a moment.

im telling ya, its the LITTLE THINGS.

[rconverse]

Just watched the first six episodes from season one. Absolutely fantastic. I love pretty much everything about this show thus far. The red head is just gorgeous. The fact that "Roger" is banging her makes me all kinds of happy.

[DJGeneral]

Cruising through season 3 right now.

My goal is to be able to watch the last 4 episodes of season 4 on TV.

Ah, why?! Miss Blakenship was hysterical.. they killed her off too early. That said, she was hilarious even in death. Bravo, Mad Men.

Not sure if I should spoiler this or not, so just being safe:

Odds that Joan is pregnant with Roger's baby? (again?)

Haha that was great too. Solid episode, some very good moments. Man this show just keeps getting better.

[whygohome?]

great episode tonight. little sally is so much like her mother its uncanny. she even looks like her.

[antsman41]

This show is just brilliant, it can not disappoint. Sally is amazing, I see an Oscar in that girls future...

I love that all the women at SCDP know how dumb Betty is about life, Don and her children.
