Let's remember that Ted is the guy who called Don while pretending to be Bobby Kennedy. Ted is the guy who hired an actor to pretend to be a military hero. Ted broke the terms of agreement with Honda in order to one-up Don's pitch. Ted grilled Kurt (or Smitty?) about Don's style and got reallly defensive when he heard…

But with Hader, Sudeikis and Armisen gone, so too are my hopes for a new "What Up With That?" sketch. No Lindsay Buckingham? No Saxophone Guy? No Tracksuit Dancer? No thanks.

I feel unfair judging Hayden Christensen by his work in the prequels. This was the same series that turned Liam Neeson, Natalie Portman and Ewan MacGregor into three of the worst actors in town for the duration of the franchise. The dialogue and directing were poison.

Paul Walker once occupied the same position as Megan Fox and Channing Tatum. Sex idiots. They don't have a genuine personality or any charisma, that way you can project your fantasies onto their abs and scowls without any of their specifics getting in the way. See also: Denise Richards.

It must kill you when people watching sports at a bar start to cheer. The players can't hear!

Eh. Dawn might be the only person who calls Don "Mr. Draper". Maybe Meredith does? Joan did until SCDP, but she hangs her hat on professionalism and heirarchy.

@eric827:disqus Vanilla ice cream aside, everything we've seen of Roger's childhood points to an idyllic, warm environment. He's still a self-obsessed manipulative shitheel, he's just so much better at it than Pete. I guess it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.

@avclub-68e2d80b9b9b5fb87b80f88eff74eece:disqus Plenty of men of Roger's generation have called the Japanese clever, sneaky or crafty in a way that doesn't diminish their racism at all.

I hope Mariah Spears, the tiny krumper from last year's auditions, will be back this year. I want to see her do choreography.

I feel that you're giving the producers far to much credit.

Shankman is streets ahead of Tasty Oreo in my books. But then again, Tasty Oreo is my least favorite television personality in the world.

Yeah, Betty was not interested in Roger, not by a long shot. She was feeling cornered, and doing what she was taught to do when cornered: bat her eyes, laugh at jokes, keep her guard up.

Oh, God. That was indeed one of the best SNL sketches of the last five years.

Sorry, the all-out Glee meltdown is scheduled for next week. Move along.

"What has CBS done in 90 years that's ever caught anyone's attention?"
I mean… Lucy, Star Trek, All in the Family, Carol Burnett, The Twilight Zone, M*A*S*H, and regardless of whether you watch or like them, The Good Wife and How I Met Your Mother have CERTAINLY caught…

Maybe Eliza Coupe can come be on Suburgatory.

Honestly, my least favorite thing that a human can do is pretend not to understand something in order to be pedantic, as in "No, I've never heard of 'I'll Be Watching You'. Are you sure that's a Sting song? I've never heard it! Oh, 'Every Breath You Take'? Yeah, I know THAT song!"

Dammit, @avclub-eac75edc18b8546c46893fe4b75ab995:disqus , can you be in charge of these things from now on?

Don's respect for Joan won't be around for much longer, anyhow. Now that they're (relatively) equal in the office, and her chief concern is no longer making sure his life goes smoothly, he'll see her as just another Not-Don to disregard.

The whole country's been drinking!
