Its just you.

Ok, maybe not just you but I've really liked it. I think seeing Don kind of lose the old school charm as most of the people around him evolve is really interesting.

Not enough Betty Draper and Roger Sterling, looking forward to their return next week.

This season has moved a bit methodically, but that's kind of always been how Mad Men operates. Don's descent is pretty remarkable to see, but I'm not sure I want to see him fade into a drunken loser.

I agree we need more Betty!

Re: MAD about Mad Men

Did anyone else get a good laugh out of Lane Pryce shouting jibberish Japanese during the Godzilla movie? (I'm assuming it was jibberish, because I don't remember learning that his character speaks the language, although I still find it funny either way).

Re: MAD about Mad Men

Season moving very slow and kinda uninspiring so far. That fuzzy brows chick is a lesbian?

It was hilarious - my wife pegged her the minute Peggy got off the elevator - "Betcha she's a lesbian and is going to make a pass at Peggy".

I agree with your assessment. Kinda wondering where they are going with this storyline.

I don't think they're going to have Peggy go lesbian, I think they're just using her as a way to introduce Peggy to a new look on life. She's going to debate leaving the office to become a real writer.

Yes! I was meaning to post here. I watched it with my mom, talk about uncomfortable TV during the Sally moment.

Ha! Yeah, that was a bit awkward.

Aside from that scene, this episode had some really funny moments. Between Don's new secretary and Peggy riding in circles around an empty studio this one had me cracking up.

Re: MAD about Mad Men

Not to get too off track on this, but does anyone else think the "Next Week on Mad Men" are totally useless. They literally give you no idea what's going to happen in the next show. I believe the format is:

Dramatic Line, Dramatic Line, Dramatic Line, Shocked Face, Dramatic Line, "To see more about next week's episode go to AMCtv.com"

My DVR always cuts off before the preview.

Agreed, yet I never find myself going to AMCtv.com for more about next week's episode
