Official "Mad Men" Season 5 Discussion Thread

[Honga Ciganesta]

Been a fan of Alexis Bledel since Gilmore Girls season one

Shame she's not as slutty as most chicks in the game, everyone shytting on her performance here though, smh. Also comparing her to Betty which I can see. Don cheated because he had a cold bytch at home, and other reasons, Pete cheated with a cold bytch. Didn't even know that was Belding until reading this thread, goddamn. Elevator was right after Megan left, so something to do with that

*dead* at Don turning off the Beatles in disgust and '''why are you cursing''

Some bad shyt is going to happen this season, too much tension in the air.

 

[Roger Sterling]

Yeah, the "Why are you cursing?" part had me dying.

Guy was going flying off the handle for no reason.

What was the significance of the heart in the window at the end? Was the girl giving pete once last final insult?

Pretty much. On some 7th grade I Like You shyt.

She's made her way onto his suicide note.

I thought it was her way of saying "love is making me stay, to try and work it out."

 

[RickyGQ]

I think she's like Betty here too, when she would lead the dude at the horse track on and then played him out with that fake lunch. Or even with the senator, she tried to play him too but he wasn't having it.

I actually thought it was the opposite.

Senseless woman just fukking with Pete at whim.

that was slick with what they did with The Beatles bit "they are too hard to get" and they actually got them on the show.

if Pete commits that or tries to, you know Don's bout to be there comforting Trudy while Meagans away working.. Trudy who's pretty much his ideal wife.. supportive, could even convince Don to come to their house, turned a blind eye when getting cheated on, would be good at home and work and can do a mean charleston dance if need be.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

i just realized I was in the exact same situation as Pete once. She wasn't married, I didnt even know she was in a relationship but eventually I realized that that she just gave me the p*ssy to get back her ex. I cought feelings though cause she was a dime. At least I didnt show up at her house though loool.

They paid 250k for the song.

 

[Roger Sterling]

They paid 250k for the song.

Crazy. Fit perfectly though.

Nah we ain't trippin, it def meant somethin. I think it meant the moment she went into that elevator was the moment don lost her forever and can't get her back even if he tries. His work slacked but workin with her was the happiest I ever seen him on the job. He as you always seemed to drudge through the work before. Soon as she left he went straight to the office and poured a glass and I had to wonder... Damn did we see him drink at work at all this season??? I really don't remember any moments. and as happy as HE'S been, she's more or less been miserable. There was no reason for her to make that big a secret out of goin back to actin. In that final sequence don and Peggy, everybody seemed to be unhappy except for her and I don't think its just cuz she gettin to act whoever that was walkin around her is gonna come out as her mistress

if the watch the all the scenes leading up the the elevator, Don was smiling and being all :D to everybody. When megan came home late, don didnt even put her in place. He smiled it off like he was just glad that she came back to him.
