Mad Men Season 5 running thread

SPOILER

Will Lane Price have a cameo in the Walking Dead with that make-up scheme? That'd be all sorts of meta.

 

Never mind, the real Don Draper didn't sign anything. Thanks, Netflix Streaming, for proving quickly that I was wrong.

 

I admittedly didn't even think about the irony of Don firing a guy for forging "his" name.

 

The setup with the Jaguar not starting was great. Some throwaway lines in a couple of episodes so we know about it, but not hit over the head with it so when the car doesn't start we all get it and have a morbid laugh.

 

I really don't know if we should be talking about Sally's visit. Every little girl gets it eventually.

 

Check, and DOUBLE-check . . .

 

I just read a fairly interesting article on Jalopnik written by the VPs of Marketing and Communications for Jaguar North America detailing the highs and lows of seeing your product prominently featured on the hottest show on TV - and also see if be referred to as not reliable enough for suicide and for your company to be linked to prostitution.

I think the fireworks have ended this season - Weiner typically does a "big" episode second to last and the last ep is used to spin the story toward the next season.

 

Uh, how about a spoiler alert on that one? I'm few weeks behind.

 

It's all over the place, including this thread. It's not everyone else's reponsibility to keep silent just because you're a few weeks behind.

 

I'm guessing Betty didn't question Megan because she assumed Sally was at school and came home from there.
And haha, Holden Weiner.

 

As the guy involved in the biggest spoiler blow-up in board history, I have to say that I would think the rule is that on a current season thread for any show, aired episodes are fair game. The entire thrust of the conversations are what happened. Can't even imagine what else we'd talking about.

KJIM: Don't take that personally or anything. I'm more or less just asking to establish the ground rules going forward on threads like this, just so nobody else unfortunately stumbles into a spoiler like you just did.
