MAD MEN on AMC - Season 6

Glad they went with this instead of sending them to Ford to do advance work on the Pinto.

Oh wow, found this blog about vintage Chevy ads by one of their old agency guys. It hasn't been updated in about 3 1/2 years, but still there are almost 300 entries for the curious to explore.

also that bob dude is corp spy yn

adored this episode. megan's mother, roger back to his wily ways, pete's general exasperatedness, cooper asking for spirits of elderflower - so many highlights

spirits of elderflower = St Germain

Mmmm.

which is splendid in a martini with thin slices of cucumber and a dash of lime.

Also makes a beautiful margarita.

Pete was top notch this week - just waiting for smoke to start billowing out of his ears

felt like there were plenty of lolz this episode but it also seemed really all over the place, kind of slapdash

OMG Joan in this opening scene you are KILLING ME.

her being all buddy-buddy with Pete was kind of gross imho

Joan looking very 1968 in that scene. Can probably count on one hand the number of times she's worn her hair down over the entire series.

i found the way pete practically spit out the race of his father-in-law's prostitute to be an interesting juxtaposition with his reaction to the mlk assassination last week

Expected, morelike.

Pete's politics are completely self-serving, no mystery there

Roger stuffing his carryon bag w/copies of Sterling's Gold.

I want gifs of Roger talking/performing mundane tasks while smoking

also that bob dude is corp spy yn

Yeah, I thought at first that he was just a super obsequious suck up but maybe there's more to it than that. He could also be an investigator looking into Don's identity.

It occurred to me last night that Roger fooling around with an airline attendant directly led to the merger of the two firms. Go Daisy!

xpost bob is a serial killer

He could also be an investigator looking into Don's identity.

I hope this loose thread is over, tbh.

bob is a timetraveller

bob is a robot

oooh maybe bob is like Jaime in Get Smart

i'll stop now

I mean, it just seems weird to me that anyone would want to spend that much time with Pete unless there was a very good reason for it.

I liked that Pete made Bob his brothel buddy.

I love how appears at the window holding the 2 coffees

ohhhhhhhh shit I almost forgot my favorite other line from last night.

Ken Cosgrove's story about How to Make a Baby & seeing his science teacher - "It's not like he was working the slide rule or anything'

yeah the constant scenes of Bob hanging around def seems like a set-up for some big reveal

ugh I forgot that bob tried to pay for pete's hooker. I understand freebie coffees but paying for a superior's hooker??? inappropriate.

appropriate if yr bob though

Bob is obvs Jesus Christ, you guys.

Bob aka LOUIS CYPHRE

oooh maybe bob is like Jaime in Get Smart

best episodes of the series imho

I'm not sure I accepted the merger tbh; it's like the episode had too much plot for one hour.

Best line: “the apple that goes in the pig's mouth.”

Damn i love this show.

That apple line was great.

Joan telling Don off was great.

Roger doing anything was great (is that his book?).

Love this show.

fanboy

Peggy needs to ditch the zero and get w the hero imo

To quote Vanilla Ice

xposts. Yeah, that was Roger's memoir.

Joan telling Don off was great. <-- otm, best scene

liked this episode a lot more than the last couple

pete's "that negro prostitute was 200lbs!" was very bnbg, in a kind of hilarious way

I feel for Joan there, for sure. She debased herself to get the client and was finally about to see the reward for doing so and, in just a second, it all meant nothing. She should've slapped Don, imo.

just like peggy's leaving is now apparently for nothing

just when they thought they were out...

yeah Joan's scene was awesome. she knows full well that Don is just white-knighting because of her

it did seem sort of insane that she basically acknowledged her whore-dom to the entire office tho

or did she say that after she had ushered them in to the conf room
