Hi, If you're here and reading this, you must be a fan of the show. I grew up in the 60s, and so much of the show feels very familiar. My wife and I are hooked...
Thanks for joining the group. I hope we'll begin to have some good conversation about the show, which has probably connected with a lot of Baby Boomers, like...
Love the show!!! Can't wait for Thursday nights. I like to record it the day after from on demand, no commercials.I have to watch each show at least twice....
That's my least favorite thing...the commercials! I don't have On Demand, but I Tivo the show, then fast-forward through the commercials. Still, the little...
Hi Annie: I'd love to hear about the inconsistencies you noticed - I haven't, as yet. I can remember my sister and I (me?), riding in the backseat of our ...
I recalled the scene where a man approaches Don on the morning train to work, but I didn't remember hearing the man call Don, "Dick Whitman". Does anyone...
I remember the event. It think it will all connect once the writers bring Don's character altogether - his past with his present. I can't wait for tonight....
Hi Annie: Gotta hand it to the writers. If they're going after Hitchcock, they've been influenced by one of the best! The more I think about it, the more I...
Another terrific episode. Didn't you feel terribly sorry for Adam Whitman, Don/Dick's younger half-sibling? I don't know if it was the actor who portrayed...
I have to watch it on comcast. My hubby gets up at 3:30am. We live in Atlanta - don't know what you know about traffic patterns in Atlanta - but morning...
Annie, That's terrific that you wait for your husband so you can watch it, together. I have some friends who are complaining that some of the Mid-century ...
Sorry to hear your least favorite character is Peggy. I have a feeling this shy and naive character will learn to know the inner workings/ secrets bethind...
Maybe I'm being too harsh on Peggy. You're right in that her character serves the purpose of bringing the audience into the picture of the ways things worked...
Just caught the last episode. I felt for both Don and Adam. My husband thought he was going to pull a gun out of his bag. I said it was money - but was not...
Hi Annie: Yes, I thought he was going to pull a gun out, too. (Don being a war vet and all - when he was home and opened his drawer with a key, I thought for...
I watched the original, and always the best, Cape Fear (1962) this morning while I was summarizing a deposition. I noticed some interesting things. BTW, this...
Hello, MMers- I've completely fallen for this show, as I'm sure you all have, and I'd count myself as an addict. I had caught only parts of some episodes, so...
So good to have you here, Ray! Like Annie, I was born in the late '50s ('59), so I grew up during the sixties. We lived in a "family neighborhood" (though not...
Derek- I was just telling a friend about the dry cleaner bag, and the kids climbing around the car. I guess it's a miracle we survived the lack of safety and...
SPOILER WARNING! Well, I think this episode lays to rest the issue of Dick / Don's Jewishness, not only because of the flashback scene but because of his ...
Just a quick "Glad to have you here" to our recent members. I like reading the AMC blog, but I've always found this Yahoo Group format to be a little more...
Finally caught the show last night (had to wait for my wife!). This series is so well written, isn't it? I thought the same - Don is quite the stud, having the...
Derek- I dunno, but the same suggestion was made on the MM blog. If Claidia wasn't Jewish, that doesn't make a lot of sense in the context of how "attractive"...
I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully, all of the new members here will join in soon. Derek ... cult following that it's developing, I'm a bit surprised...
Just joined this group, and glad to be a part of it. The first episode of Mad Men really grabbed me and I've been hooked ever since. I grew up in a suburb of...
A few things about the Babylon episode that really caught me after watching it for a second time last night: 1. Betty (when in bed with Don) and Roger (in bed...
I am a new member of this group, but I have watched the show since the start and I am fascinated by it. I am interested in the different relationships that Don...
Derek, A big New York ad agency WOULD have a one way mirror room. They would use the room for conducting focus groups, as they did with all the secretaries...
