Joney's service job sometimes resembles a Mad man's (or at least a Mad man's secretary):
…Keep them happy (safe-keep Megan's script, give gifts at Christmas, hail cabs)
…MYOB (Stinking, falling-down drunk Don to Jonesy: "What did you see?" / Jonesy: "I didn't see anything, Mr. Draper")
…Flatter them ("What do we have

The Don/Betty one-time hook-up worked.  A Peggy/Pete romantic reunion or Peggy/Duck romantic reunion would not.

Just re-watched "The New Girl" (season 2). Peggy tells Bobbie Barrett, "I live alone, and the milk always goes bad."  Now, Peggy lives alone again, and her milk won't go bad because she'll share it with Miss Kitty. (Back then, I think people thought it was a good idea to feed milk to cats; it's not - see slide #4 http:

I don't think Pete appreciated Bob's hitting on him. I do think Pete was disappointed to learn Benson's friendship was, er, encumbered by other motives.

I can't forget Pete's white short shorts, either, the one he wore to the emergency American Airlines meeting on Palm Sunday.

Joan's inquiry about Peggy's "little boy" referred to Abe.

I'm in the process of reviewing episodes from season 1 through 6. I'm in the middle of season 2 on DVD, and season 4 on Sundays. Don has told Sally he loved her, in earlier seasons. Ted Chaough seems to be affectionate with his kids, and I get the impression the Rosens are with Mitchell (though the Rosens are also

@Abigail - agreed. Except…Betty attended a Seven Sisters College:  Bryn Mawr.

Lindsay, Terry Melcher, and Candice Bergen had all moved out before the Manson murders, and Lindsay, Melcher, and even Vincent Bugliosi have stated that Manson was well aware Melcher no longer lived at Cielo Drive. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…

The not-Jonesy doorman's a real piece of work. There goes the neighborhood.

Pete: That's disgusting. Let's pretend this never happened.

@Core Concept - This.  Also, Sally's got Don/Dick's hand-wiping-brow gesture down pat. That whole dynamic so reminds me of the Tony-Meadow Soprano exchanges during "College", that concluded with her ultimately choosing to accept Tony's fake explanations, and her ultimately learning to spin things, herself.

PFC Dinkins - "I'm not pitching for the Dodgers".

@dystopika: RE: "The Roger/Danny material seemed pointless.  Mad Men can do better than casting someone as a fucking sight gag. "

Bert Cooper likely could have figured out what Cutler was up to, but as he'd said in several earlier episodes: (1) he and Roger have already "cashed in", (2) Bert's motivated by self-interest.  Cutler gets that, which is why he didn't even mention Bert when he said Draper, Sterling, and Crane (the three he was

So glad to have you aboard, Ken.  Now, dance!

@avclub-d7b683529752a4d24d84c4941861a363:disqus : Agreed.  Pete was the anti-Don in that scene:
…Don only likes things when they're new, and
…Don generally seemed like a friend and (with Herb Rennet) a protector

Daniel J. Siegel said Lotus was going to stay in his guest house. In wondered whether that meant Danny had a property sufficiently lavish to include a guest house, or whether (more likely) Danny himself (like Kato Kaelin) lived in someone else's guest house.

Based on numerous forum posts, I think many of us like seeing Dawn. She's always warm, welcoming, nurturing, and protective with Don; respectful and faithful to Joan; and pleasant and professional with everyone else. As you pointed out, she even dresses more upbeat,

Shut yo' mouth!
