Mad Men

Huh, I always thought that they would show two babies.
Seems like I remember an episode where the sister was on Peggy about not holding the baby.
I just thought Peggy was twisting the knife in Pete by saying she gave the baby away, and not saying that her sister was the one keeping the kid.

 

Can you link that? I've been checking the sites that I know of, but this interview sounds a lot more insightful. Thanks.

 

And I'll bump this again, before tipoff . . . it's my duty.

The 11/2 Simpsons will include a Mad Men takeoff.

You're welcome.

 

OK, finally got around to this ep. I, too, thought Peggy's sister had her baby. I think she wanted Pete to think she didn't know where it was. My take on Betty's one-nighter was she kind of got a picture of what it might be like out there for her if she didn't go back to Don. She's got a little one-up on him now and like someone else said, it was a free shot with her being pregnant. Plus, Don is really all in again. She knows that and feels the power. I thought this whole ep was a fascinating take on Pete, who I have always despised. It really allowed his humanity to show through and just show what an immature guy he was and how he might be trying to right that. I also think the merger goes through and maybe Don even does an end-around and the Brits name him to head things up. Or he takes his money from the sale and his no-contract status and heads out the door to start a new agency, where he steals all the accounts. That would be the ultimate FU for Duck, who I think is now gone. I actually loved this whole episode. It just showed a lot of little emotions that had been building up all season.

 

A good Mad Men-related article...

Your final heads-up:

Mad Men riff on Sunday night's Simpsons . . .

 

I miss this series already. There's a hole in my DVR's recorded list until, what, next summer?

 

Watching on TIVO, my screen was a little dark. Do we know it was Pete in there with the gun? My wife and I both suspected it was Duck.

 

It was Pete.

 

Pete.

Without. A. Doubt.

 

Pete had the shotgun, but Don was the one who went Duck hunting.

 

Very nice, sir.
