In real life, Masters finally left his wife and married Johnson because she was going to marry a perfume magnate, and we saw how crazy jealous Bill got last season when Gini was seeing other men. Perhaps Gini thinks she's giving her mother the finger by seeing whomever she wants and not trying to land Bill, but in

I happen to like pale English guys who look like they should be named Wesley Snipes, so…

I watched an episode from S2 last night and Sheen's hair was noticeably darker. I think what he has this season is his own natural salt-and-pepper shade, which as you said seems to be the only indication of the passage of time.

Yeah, is that code for "boobs and peens"? (Of course MOS features the former too, but..)

After he delivered her himself, to boot.

When I saw the title I was thinking Belinda Carlisle, not Talking Heads.

Actually Gini told Bill as soon as he walked in that Tessa was home. She was fully dressed and didn't look post-coital, so I don't think Josh Charles was there, and Gini has quite enough to deal with without adding in another married man. When she agreed to go to dinner with Bill it was because she knows how hard it

I interpreted it not as guilt over the abortion itself, but guilt that she kept such a big secret from him. You can love someone and still not want to have any more kids with them.

I had to have them track my plate number once too. Thank goodness for smartphones- now you can just take a picture of the sign for the section where you parked it.

I thought that the doctor was trying to explain that Gordon had an underlying mental illness such as biploar disorder. The coke and booze could have been his way of self-medicating.

And apparently Sarah Silverman will be back and they'll use the clinic's services to have a baby. That's pretty pro-gay for 1966.

I don't think Lisa is biologically Bill's, but I got the feeling that for that moment he wished that she was and maybe Virginia did too.

Jane was one of the secretaries at Washington U. who was among the first to be in the study, first by herself then later with Austin, which he basically used an an excuse to cheat on his wife with her. She had a thing with Lester then moved to LA to try acting, but washed out (hence her comment to Lester about wearing

Interesting. As I recall the intent of the producers of "Party of Five" was for Julia to get an abortion, but it was deemed to controversial for network TV at the time.

I believe George said something in the last episode about trying to get him a non-combat clerical position. Given that Henry isn't exactly G.I. Joe, the army would probably agree.

He's not totally sterile, he just has a low sperm count. They used cervical capping (an early form of intrauterine insemination) to conceive their kids but it's very unlikely that he would have knocked Gini up naturally.

Well, anyone who went on the MOS Facebook page and saw the promo photos of Gini in a maternity top saw this coming. But she didn't "freak out" on the table- as she said a few times during the episode she made a deliberate choice, not because they were dancing around the abortion topic but because it was the right

Actually McCann-Erickson is the real-life firm that did the Coke ad, and Weiner stated that in the fictional world of the show, Don came up with the ad. The real McCann agency even tweeted "Thanks Don, about time you came up with a good idea" after the show aired.

He did go back to McCann and wrote the Coke ad, both Matt Weiner and Jon Hamm confirmed it in interviews. Don finally found peace, but the peace he found is rooted in knowing who he is and what he's good at- being an ad man. And look at the way he's dressed in the final scene compared to the others, with a crisp white

Since they didn't mention her by name, we don't don't know for sure it's Barbara that he married. Considering their mutual hang-ups and baggage, it might not have worked out and he might have married someone shrewish just so he wasn't alone.
