So, how can I read the actual reviews, or is it just me who has that "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Binge" blocking half the screen?

Only 4 were credited. The first year, there were Bobbies that were just in the background without any lines. I remember reading (or maybe it was on the commentaries) there were more Sallies the first year, but Kiernan Shipka was so good they never needed to use any of the others. (The kids in the pilot were the

Also, Marguerite Moreau played a prostitute in season 2 (the only other role I've seen her play).

The Chip'N'Dip actually belonged to Matt Weiner's mother.

They didn't do exteriors because it was filmed in LA. Matt Weiner did once say he always intended for the show to be shot in LA, so unless HBO insisted on NY, I don't think there would be more exterior shots.

Maybe. But Boardwalk Empire started a few years after Mad Men, and by the time BE got going it felt somewhat like something that had been done before. I always sort of felt that BE would have been a bigger hit if it had aired about 5 years earlier than it did.

Only the first half of season 7 has been released yet. It included one commentary track on each episode. There were no actors participating on those commentaries. Matt Weiner commented on every episode with one or two other behind-the-scenes people.

Her father was a (Jewish) candy store owner, as she told Don on their first date. She often used Yiddish expressions. And Matt Weiner explicitly said she's Jewish.

It was established in the show that Faye was Jewish.

Yes. Mad Men focuses heavily on creative and accounts, but media is equally important, and always has been. Harry started out as a media buyer, and created the TV department out of that. He expanded on what was already established. And when they formed SCDP, Harry was brought over as the head of the Media

Well, the TV side of it didn't, but the rest of the media department (i.e. radio and print) did.

I think he was media, not creative or accounts. I seem to remember Harry mentioning once that Bert used to do Harry's job.

Also she knows he's ashamed of it, and wanted to hurt him.

Maybe it's too simple, but I just thought he was saying that they're playing it all the time because it's an amazing song.

Yeah, I think Don moving to California would be the unhappy ending. It's where he goes to run away. I think staying in NY (where his kids are) and actually accepting and dealing with his real life would be the happy ending.

Very uncomfortable. The friend's name was Amy. The prostitute who raped Dick was Aimee. Probably not an accident. The whole thing just came across as very creepy.

There's still a lot of confusion about that unfortunately, but in an interview with Maureen Ryan at the end of season 2, Matt Weiner confirmed that Peggy's sister is NOT raising Peggy's baby. http://featuresblogs.chicag…

It's amazing that not only was she a six-year-old who could actually act, but she really does look like she could be the child of Jon Hamm and January Jones.

Yes. I think that was in the episode when Roger had his first heart attack.

Matt Weiner actually has said that Joan's fiance raped her.
