Ann Dowd is doing a good job with weak material though. A lot of her dialogue within tonight's episode can be chalked up to the equivalent of audience reaction. She's some passenger on Kevin Garvey's wild ride and just chimes in like an audience member in a movie. She's doing heavy lifting with material that might as

I'd disagree on the "are you alone? I am too" line being corny, it really worked for me. A lot of Jill Garvey's behavior and character within season one was based on her just being alone a lot of the time. Her mom was with the Guilty Remnant, and her dad is batshit crazy. I think that was an emotional beat that

"I loved the scene with Nora and the pastor in church", has Eccleston's Matt Jamison been reduced to simply "the pastor" now? Not even an acknowledgement within the blurb about their familial connection.

I'm pretty sure if Joel McHale could press a button and trade careers with Ryan Seacrest, he would. Ryan Seacrest is worth something like $300 million, whereas Joel McHale has a show on Yahoo.

"It will shock you how much it never happened."

Yeah, that rundown little dinner was in Manhattan on 3rd Avenue. As Pete said, the city's in the toilet.

The opening shot of Ken Cosgrove and a waiter, only to have the waiter move and reveal Pete Campbell, that's the sign of a good episode to come.

Yeah, Ted likely went to college in Racine, Wisconsin, and they're old buddies…

I think the delivery and importance of Hobart's line of, "You are dying… and going to advertising heaven" needs to be emphasized. That line is so ominous. What he presents to them is amazing, but it feels like death, and it is. That scene almost felt surreal like Don could wake up from a dream part way through. We've

I thought Megan's Dad was more of a drunken college professor who mingled with his students and never really cared about his wife and family to the degree that they required. My take was that he knows his wife sleeps around on him, and he doesn't care. Not sure where that falls into the beta spectrum.

I think that's honestly something that isn't being touched on enough. Pete and Harry soaring within this company, and Ken always been looked over or under-appreciated, yet of the three, Ken has always been viewed as loyal to his wife, and to the company. The guy who is the hardest worker of the three, and the best

The very married Harry Crane, who we saw cheating on his wife in the very first season of this show, insisting to Megan that he is loyal (unlike Don) before making advances on Megan.

Even tonight, Don saying he'd throw his tie over his shoulder while golfing and the clients would love it, and an annoyed Pete agreeing with him.

It's because it was never his arc, it's Peggy's. It's this ascension to power for Peggy in that season, as well as the show. We watch the rise of someone who was a secretary, to someone who is a creative force at a major agency. It was Peggy taking a stand to someone who was belittling another woman, a position she

I think that's the best use of cinematography and blocking the show has ever had, which, don't get me wrong, Girls has always had criminally underrated cinematography. Week after week, we sort of overlook the gorgeous framing and depth of field. But in particular, the scene with Adam and Hannah, with a BABY separating

Are you sure it was Jessa-Hannah Bluebell Palm? It sounded more like "Poem" to me.

I still go back and revisit that Friday Night Lights episodes, I think it's the best in the series run, and this is from someone who lost a parent at a very young age. Powerful, moving, and ultimately inspiring, much like the rest of the show.

It is nice to be intimate with others.

And remember when we thought someone's foot getting run over by a lawnmower might've been too weird for Mad Men?

To me, the strength of Peggy's pitch in terms of what it means to the viewers is just that we're seeing how far she has come. She was a secretary, she was looked down upon by everyone in that office. Here she was with everyone looking up at her. It's power, it's powerful, this whole season with her and Don and their
