I put Freddy on suicide watch. No way that Allison will. Hopefully, her character isn't weak enough to be worn down by all the Don Draper drunk sex - I just see her becoming jaded and perhaps turning to alcohol for comfort like everyone else. Freddy appears to be the only one there who is living honestly, without any

They had to find a way to make Jim likable again. I know I was pretty much loathing upper-level-management Jim and always loved the underachieving, doesn't-give-a-shit version.

The use of that song was absolutely perfect. I got chills as soon as I heard the first few notes of the song.

@lexicondevil - I've felt the same way about that Clorox commercial. It's like, "Oh, look at how powerful us women are - we've ALWAYS had Clorox to do our laundry." Like it's supposed to be some common bond that we all raise our fists and unite over. And also, yes, I do think it's sexist to assume that men did laundry
