Re: MAD about Mad Men

To answer JoeRedskin, I agree Henry did seem like he stepped in a pile of dog poop and his mom not liking Betty either has to add to his doubt.

Re: MAD about Mad Men

Already mentioned this to SS, but the AMC site has Betty listed as "Betty Francis". Guess they got married in the time represented by the break? Kind of hard to get her and Don back together.

Betty has just gotten bitchier and bitchier. Other than to look at, does anyone really like her character??

Re: MAD about Mad Men

I love Betty's character mainly because she's pretty cold-hearted (then again she did get cheated on repeatedly). But I'm glad they decided she wouldn't just be another pretty face, happy homemaker.

I've had a feeling that something with the kids was going to ultimately bring Don and Betty together, maybe at the end of the season. And something I heard the other day tends to confirm my suspicions

Re: MAD about Mad Men

SS to your point about the kids, it is interesting that on IDMb they are not listed out to 2010.

"Mad Men" (2007)

Don done went nut-so...I like. That weasel living in Don's house is disgraceful.

Re: MAD about Mad Men

Well, in terms of a character's "weaselness", we are talking degrees here. Don's pretty much head weasel when it comes to cheating on spouses with ole' Roger a close second. Henry, to me anyway, seems like a relatively good guy.

Interesting to see where it goes - I really think he is going to find out that being the "other guy" is a lot more interesting than being married.

Is Francis broke? Why is he telling her to find a house specially after he told her he would take care of her? He's in it for something...it's the quite ones you got to worry about.

I don't think there was an implication that she was buying the new house. I think he was telling her "Look - cut ties with this guy. Why are you still here? Get out of this house so we can start our life together."

You could be right but so far the guy (other than sleeping with another man's wife - but in this show that's almost a given - he has been pretty much up front. Once Betty made the decision, Henry's been right up front with what he wants and why. He apparently married her practically the moment the divorce was final and he's not hiding from Don. Again, I think he is the odd man out, though how they make it happen, I don't know.

I'm pretty sure they got married...I would imagine that if he married her he would make the call of moving out right away. Don's daughter will be Henry and Betty's undoing. I'm rooting against this Henry guy on the basis that he's not man enough.

So you aren't to the point when Don joins NASA and is the first man in space?

He probably hasn't even got to the one where Betty poses for Playboy.

Re: MAD about Mad Men

The lesbian scene was amazing. Very classy and tastefully done IMO.

Kind of funny you made this comment because after Sundays (8/15) show they maybe heading that way.

Is it just me or is the season a yawn fest.
