Mad Men is Back! Season 6 Thread

[Zeze]

I can't make up my mind if I like Peggy or not.

She's ugly and has a weird teeth and pig-like look going on. But she's so damn likable in the show and that in turn, makes her attractive.

She looks just like Mena Suvari (American Pie & American Beauty), I thought they were the same person but got hit by a truck and went on Mad Men:

Well Don is an asshole.

Good to know that I haven't missed anything since I stopped watching in season 2

Actually I tend to think that Megan (his new wife) grounded him quite well. Don with always be "Don" but Megan is less passive agressive then Betty ever was and I think that holds Don back from being his old self. Aside from that though the show isn't just about Don anymore, so you've missed quite a lot actually, especially from Season 2.

I thought Peggy looked good in the premiere.

peggy has never looked good in this show in any season, ever.

did anyone else laugh when roger started crying when he opened the shoe polish kit? i actually LOL'ed as soon as he started crying because i knew he was going to cry there but showed no emotion when his mom died. it just made me burst out for a second.

Yep. It was hilarious. The whole ending of the episode was great

I just had to do a double take when I found that that she god naked (topless) in Top Of the Lake (2013) Episode 5. Pics are readily available online.

I've always found her cute in a "different" kind of way... sort of like Janeane Garofalo.

Guess I have to wait until Community this week to get a dose of Alison Brie.

So many characters you only get a tiny bit with each one even in 90 minutes of show. I would have rather seen more miserableness from Pete living in the suburbs especially after Sandy goes off on Betty about how boring a normal life will be if she goes to college and finds a boy.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Stronger episode, lots of stuff went down. Poor Pete, I wonder how long Trudy knew or if this was the first.

So weird to see Allison Brie play a 20 year old on Community and a 30-ish (real age) on Mad Men. PVR'd this today, so only saw a few minutes.

You're avatar may be prophetic. I think Pete is going to end up in a clock tower picking people off.

Poor Pete. He wants to be Don Draper so badly but he just doesn't have the stuff for it.

Trudy knew after he had sex with that babysitter a few seasons back. When he told her "don't ever leave me alone again".

She even said as much when she allowed him to get an apt in the city so he could be more discrete, but he even fucked that up.

Joan gains a little weight -> :wub:
Betts is still a little chubby -> D:

Basically my emotions since season 5.

Haha yeah, I could see him being the "falling man" when all is said and done too, it was supposed to be Harry but MW liked the character too much or something. The end of the episode was interesting too with that Bob guy kissing up to Pete in his office, even though he's Accounts I can see Bob naturally becoming the next Don Draper right before Pete's eyes and him resenting it. Love Pete's quote to Don at the end "Don't be cute, I still have his spit in my hair!" that's up there with "Christ on a cracker"

Damn, my PVR cut off 5 minutes early because the episode ran 5 minutes late. Loved Don's passive aggressive pitch. Alison Brie also good.

 

[NFS4]

Alison Brie also good.

I :wub: her

 

[BrokenVisage]

Don is such two-faced hypocrite. And I guess this means the company did in fact get Dow?

I could have punched him dead in the face at that point. As to your second point, yes, hence Harry's commission check.

 

[momeNt]

Somebody needs to get Don's face from the swinger pitch as a reaction gif.

 

[z0mb13]

Why are the writers making don to be such an unlikeable character??

He's always been unlikeable... that's why we like him

This show has taken the same path as TWD, Suck Alley.

Pete's going bald. Heavy receding. First thing I noticed.

His perfectly coiffed hair? Oh noes!
