Sally does look like a young Drew Barryemore. I want to see The Town.

Yes, Don is a loser, but boy! Don is hot! Though bridesmaids the movie did ruin his hotness for me, he was such a jerk in that movie!!

OOOOOOOH! Mrs Blankenship was the mom from the Karate Kid! When I saw her on the show for the first time I was screaming>> DANIEL! LOL!

Have you seen him on 30 Rock? Oh he is soooo funny! I don't even remember him from Bridesmaids because when I saw the movie, I had never seen Mad Men before.

Jon Ham is really funny on 30 Rock. His SNL apperance was really good too.

 

[CaliforniaDreamin]

My favorite Mad Men character!

I hope she wins the Emmy!!!

"People like you, well you live in the bubble".

OMG, and one of my favorite scenes in all of 30 Rock was when the door swung open.

YES! 30 Rock is one of my favorite shows!
I love him as one of Tina Fey's boyfriends! The hook hands! C'mon! Too much funniez.

I read an article yesterday about the little boy who plays their son. He is leaving the cast and he said everyone was nice but January Jones (Betty). Apparently, she has the rep of being quite the witch.

Don Draper is a cheating scoundrel, but I still have a mad crush on him. He's SO debonair. And I adore Joan (Christina Hendricks). Forget Kate Moss, I'd die to have a body like that!

I wonder how they'll deal with that. Probably will pull a Roseann and hope we don't notice

I hope she wins the Emmy!!!

Was she nominated?

I have avoided all Mad Men discussions trying not to spoil it for myself. I watched all 4 seasons in about 3 weeks. I am soooo ready for a season 5.

I really enjoyed it, I was also fascinated by the whole set and costumes aspect too. The 60s were before I was born, but I've always been retro so I just eat that stuff up too. Story line is great too (that goes w/o saying), all around awesome show!!!

(I just finished the 4th season this morning on Netflix)

I am loving this show. I was born in 1962 but remember a lot of the things from that era like the way women and blacks were treated. And there was one episode where the Drapers went on a picnic. When they were done they just shook off the blanket with their trash and left it. That was something people would have done back then. And riding in cars with no car seats or seatbelts. I used to love to lay down on the section behind the back seat under the back window. Can you imagine kids doing that now?

 

[SookieStackhouse]

I was born in the 70s and I remember being a kid climbing all over the car w/no seat belt. Back then, nobody thought anything of it, but now... yikes.

 

[redlight]

Yes, things really have changed. The picnic scene, the children wearing bags over their heads, the pregnant women smoking.....

Its more like EVERYONE smokes on Mad Men.
I remember feeling my parents were odd back then because they didnt smoke and everyone else DID

 

[Diznygrl]

I watched that picnic episode a few days ago and I LOL'd. It was kind of shocking to see them just nonchalantly shake out their trash onto the ground and leave. But funny nonetheless.

Which season has the JFK epsiode? And I'm trying to settle a bet: is Connor from Angel in the cast? (I'm sure its him).

Yep..Pete Campbell is Connor from Angel.

Sorry if this has already been said, but when does season 5 start, I can't find the date. tia

 

[Anna114]

I don't think a dates been posted. They were kind of late getting contracts settled. I think that held it up a bit.

 

[7165red]

I believe it going to be Jan.2012. It's been a awful long wait.

 

[SookieStackhouse]

ouch, that's a long time to wait! I am ready for it now!
