LOL'd so much when they found all the underwear under the mattress.

If you're not drinking or trying to recover from the effects of drinking while watching a Lifetime movie, you're not doing it right. Count me IN.

Nah, she just died from being too old and too horny.

I read that as "streak" the first 10 times I read this comment (Mondays!) so I thought you were referencing the blood streak from last night and I was about to be all "grossssssssssssss". Carry on though.

Just searched "Creepy Glen" on Twitter and three people came up as potential people to follow: 1. Aforementioned Creepy Glen 2. Some other guy named Glen 3. Herman Cain You can't make this stuff up.

I do not think Don is okay with Joan's actions at all. His tone and ice cold stare right at Joan as he made that comment pretty much confirms he will never view her the same again.

Agreed. I was pretty traumatized after watching that and I don't even have a personal story about suicide. The reactions that Pete, Ken, and Harry had after they looked in Lane's office and Joan's subsequent reaction confirming her worst fears were what disturbed me the most.

Thank god Facebook didn't exist during Glen's time. He would be the sole fan of the "Don Draper's Wives" page

Ooooh good theory, friend of Messica. I just figured it was Betty continuing to be the worst via phone calls.

I honestly don't know what I was more offended by - Glen's acting or the shot of a 12 year old's bloody underwear.

Or not, because I'm just going to be disappointed that he maybe still exists.

NO SPRINKLER OR DRAMATIC DICE ROLL? This video is a travesty to (my) dance moves EVERYWHERE!

Yeah, remember what happened when Betty Elms awoke from her sleep?

That sleepy dog and I must be both suffering from that 2:30 feeling because I looked EXACTLY LIKE THAT while I watched the video.

That line bothered me, because it makes Daisy sound like much more of a romantic than she ever was.

Yes, I agree. Leo looks like he spent a little too much time baking at the tanning salon!

I respect and understand your point, but at the same time I'm kind of sick of people defending the show like it's always at 100% top notch quality. It is usually very close to great/perfection, but sometimes the episodes fall a little flat compared to others. I don't think you can blame it all on the "flow" of the season. This just doesn't only happen with Mad Men, plenty of other good shows are guilty of this.

I did however like when Jane mentioned that he has started to make up blatant lies about that night trying to trick her, like saying she would remarry right away to avoid prolonged alimony payments.

I think this was my least favorite episode of the season so far. I agree with Kelly - it just felt a bit all over the place in terms of plot. The pacing seemed really off to me too - strange transitions, moments held too long or cut too abruptly. I don't know, it was just off-putting. I actually found myself looking forward to the episode ending, which is the opposite of every other week. Also, the episode was titled Dark Shadows, which is the show Megan's friend was auditioning for, and frankly, I found that whole plot line with Megan and her friend to be unnecessary and distracting. If you're going to do the whole "people are jealous of Megan" thing, you more than accomplished that with Betty's storyline. And finally, I am all for symbolism in TV shows, but the smog was just too much. It just reminded me of that South Park episode which is not a good thing. I get it! Betty is poison! OR the smog is like the uncontrollable egos of Don & Roger, who are both willing to throw other under the bus for their own self-satisfcation! OR a million other things.

I just really hope Jorah gets to bang Dany at some point soon. Or maybe the metal mask lady? Jorah is a hunky piece of man meat and needs to get after it as badly as Jon Snow does!

But how much is he really protecting Sansa? I was hoping he would just flip over the mattress himself but then he ended up ratting the poor girl out to Cersei.

Who knew the Lannisters were also the grammar police? Tywin was even calling out Arya on "my lord" vs. "milord"
+23 | 5/14/12 2:32 PM

Also, can we talk about how great every scene between Arya & Tywin is? Just superb stuff - A++. Although I'm sure Arya had to try really hard not to laugh in disgust/contempt when Tywin said she reminded him of his daughter. "THAT CRAZY BITCH? Yeah right, old man."

I was convinced it was Bran and Rickon after the episode ended based on everyone's reaction shots and spent the next 20 min pouting and crying out "BRANNNN NOOOO". I didn't even realize it could be the farm children until I talked to a friend of mine and read a couple recaps. Either way, that was well done (literally, yikes).

I haven't read the books, so I'm crossing my fingers that Cat just castrates Jamie.

Yes. This is pretty much what I was trying to say up top. Trash, you my dawg.

There have always been a good amount of stakes related to Don and/or the office. Season 1: will people find out about Dick Whitman? Season 2: the Sterling Cooper buyout. Season 3: the end of the Draper marriage / formation of SCDP Season 4: will Don ever get his shit together? This season: A lot of commentary about the changing times. To be honest, I think this might be my favorite season so far, but I can sympathize with people that are kind of frustrated with the pacing / advancement of the story. Maybe that's why they've been focusing more on other characters, like Megan, this season. There isn't much on the line for Don this season, except the question of whether this marriage will work but they seem to be making a point of showing that it can/possibly will.

My roommate just decided to start Mad Men from season 1 and I saw Sal on the TV and suddenly was reminded how badly I needed to dust my living room.

Once he made that offhand remark about suicide, I felt like Matthew Weiner was speaking directly to the Monster Mad Men Conspiracy Club: Pete Campbell Death Prediction Chapter.
