By the way, Don's totally gonna tap that Peggy ass.
Watch all of it, jackass.
Yeah, starting to get that way. I'm still a fan though.
I hope Don doesn't do Peggy, their dynamic is good as it is.
i just finished season 3 of mad men. the last 2 episodes of season 3 are in my top ten best tv episodes i've ever seen on tv ever, period.
Don Draper's the man but i like Roger Sterling. His quick wit and one liners are the best. i think he's the best actor in the series.
season 4 just wrapped up and i'm looking forward to it as well.
9/10. Not that it matters but they sound too, contemporary (most of the time). people in the sixties didn't sound or talk like they did now right? the best examples of how people sounded like in the sixties are pete campbell's wife, trudy campbell, and duck phillips, pete sounded 60's too.. or that "we interreupt this program with a special news bulliten" walter kronkite 60's sound. i dunno.
it just makes me forget that it's the sixties when they sound like their in 2010.

Agree, hands down the best character. he's a total dick, but you can't help but like him.
he can be crass but he does it with class. he's the shows comic relief.
i remember when that young brit exec lost his foot to that mower driven in the office by that drunk secretary, and one of the account execs told Sterling that the guy lost his foot and Streling goes "jezz, right when he got it in the door.."
ha..
Season One was sooo good. I loved it when Betty had her sex fantasy against the dryer. Dude, I've soo been using that trick since I was like... thirteen. It was hilarious to see a grown woman trying it for the first time. My dryer doesn't do that anymore, though. Or my dishwasher. That was the most rumbly appliance in the house! Damn you, technological advancements and silent dishwashers!
So I should keep with it then? I'm on season two, episode two, on Instant Watch, and I had to get out of it. [S:2 E:2 is when the plane crashes and Peter "Douche" Campbell's dad died in the crash.]
I am waiting and waiting and waiting.... When does this get better?! Or back to normal - that would be good too!

How about I just buy you a proper vibrator, instead of you dry-humping appliances for a thrill?
Gotta say, I thought ending with the famous "Buy the World a Coke" theme/commercial was an absolutely brilliant move. 👆
Despite the fact that Draper led an immensely tortured life(which, to be fair, was almost entirely self-inflicted, what with his enormous web of lies and whatnot), he at least seemed like he was trying to right some of the wrongs he's committed over the years during his soul-searching roadtrip across America... But then what happens? In his moment of woosah-induced clarity, he lets out a smirk, and evidently dreams up one of the most famous Coca Cola ads of all time. In the end, he just couldn't stop being "Don Draper, ad man" first--that was the only real consistency that he allowed in his life over the years.
So then the question comes: what was really his motivation for taking to the road? Was it to legitimately rediscover himself and become a better person, or was it simply to clear his mind a bit so that he could come up with some fresh ad ideas..? I suppose we'll never know...
I love the series, was not too fond of the finale. I mean..Don didn't interact with anyone! By that I mean, no scenes with him and Roger or Pete or anyone. He talked to people on the phone, that is it. The rest of the time he spent with hippies. This episode seemed like it was a mid season finale, not an ending to the entire series.
What irks me is people acting like the ending was so ambiguous because maybe Peggy did the coke commercial. Even though it was quite clearly Don. Come on now: he is told in the episode that when he comes back he can do coke. We then see Don getting all zen and shit with hippies and finding peace, we THEN see the commercial for coke with people singing about..finding peace and all that hippy stuff. Hell, people in the commercial even had outfits VERY similar to the outfits the hippies Don was hanging with had. But nope, totally Peggy!
Can't help but feel sorry for Henry too. He doesn't know Betty cheated on him and probably never will know.
Sort of feel the same for Peggy and Stan. Stan doesn't know what kind of person Peggy is. She has nor problem sleeping with married men and abandoning the child she has with said married man. She has two serious relationships in the series, both of which she cheats on the guys. She one time jerked off a random guy she met at a movie theater..inside the theater, even though she had a boyfriend. Oh did I mention the movie she was seeing where she cheated was the movie her boyfriend had begged her to go see with him? Poor Stan has no clue what he is getting into.
