They did it on purpose. They're costuming geniuses over there, because it really works with his character.

Yup. I don't think a little whipped cream skit or steering the dinner conversation means you have "it". Lots of actors are perfectly suited for commercials but will never land more than a bit part as 'Trauma Nurse #2' on a random episode of Law and Order: SVU, let alone go on to become a big star. She could land all

You've pretty much said everything in brain, except more succinctly and with less "like"s.

Ooo, that's a good point!

You know, if Megan really wanted strings to be pulled for her, she'd have to talk to Harry in TV. Don could get her commercials, but Harry knows TV execs.

He could've presented it better then. I assumed that we've still never seen Megan actually act (barring the "Just Taste It Skit") because she's actually only average. When Don pulled out the reel I thought we were finally going to see her do a monologue or something, but no, it was just her smiling and blinking,

Me too. I was happy they didn't gloss over Peggy's contributions to their company.

She's within her right to want it all, but her behavior when Don (rightfully) wouldn't give her a leg up was frankly, whiny. He clearly said to her that it would be awkward, that the people who wrote and art directed the ad (Ginsberg and Stan) know who she is and why she'd be the top pick wouldn't be fair to them and

I think that's a nice difference between them. Betty really wanted to be wanted or needed. She needed validation. She never had dreams to be a model, she was a chubby kid who was picked on by her mother who taught her that a woman's worth was in being beautiful-aka being desired. She got that validation through

Megan's wallowing "This is all I'm good for" line totally made me want to shake her and tell her to snap out of it. In light of the fact that she actually was pretty good at her copywriting job, it just made her seem even more whiny. I'm so glad they had her shrewd, all knowing mother there to balance out her self

No, but they could've been twins, which I thought was a nice touch.

The last interaction the two of them had was a drunk Lane harassing her about her bikini, and Joan kicking him out of her office. If the last thing someone did before they killed themselves is try to flirt with you, and the last thing you did was tell them to GTFO, it stands to reason that that might linger on in your

It still may. They had Don come up with "It's Toasted" for Lucky Strike even through in reality Lucky Strike had been using that slogan since World War I.

I loved her mom! First telling Megan to get over herself, acknowledge that she's luckier than most women and start to move on, then telling Roger she'd fuck him (something she'd get to enjoy) but not baby sit, AND then telling Don that his problem's with his wife are not her problems just because she's the mother? She

"Feminists? Like, they hate guys right? I'm not a lesbian or anything!"

Not feminist, just a very left leaning pseudo-intellectual. All in that pool along with feminists as liberal types conservatives hate.

Yeah, but it's most distilled form I think of Maggie Gyllenhaal's hippy liberal mama in Away We Go. Still a feminist stereotype, but fun!

If anything, attachment parenting (on the surface) sounds very liberal and granola-y (co-sleeping, and slings), and feminism is often thought of as liberal and granola-y.

Huts or no huts, you'd think a dude would notice if the person he lives with and sleeps with is on their period. Add in the fact that it's common knowledge that it happens once a month and it's not hard to keep track if you're trying.

Ooo, nice choice! That one was super cute.
