Even in the psychedelic kaftan she was wearing?

Harry gave him an office and a spare tire.

Pete's going bald this season.

OMG at "say hello to Lurch and Morticia"

I wouldn't assume that Betty is being given a smaller role, only because Christopher Stanley (Henry Francis) is now credited as a regular cast member.

Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Thursday, 29 March 2012 21:23 (fourteen years ago)

(Unless the idea there is that Betty is on-screen no more than Henry is, and they don't want to officially demote January Jones, so they'll promote Christopher Stanley instead.)

Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Thursday, 29 March 2012 21:24 (fourteen years ago)

You guys, I think about the politics of TV credits a lot.

I am cool with less Betty and twice as much Sally

Weiner said they shot a bunch of Betty stuff early bcz of pregnancy and it'll basically be salted into the episodes where they have room

So they went the Frasier route.

Respectfully, Tyrese Gibson (Nicole), Monday, 2 April 2012 03:17 (fourteen years ago)

The Lurch and Morticia comment makes more sense now that I've seen the house.

So was Betty wearing her real baby fat or did they just put her in costume?

*tera, Monday, 2 April 2012 03:43 (fourteen years ago)

Loving' the jew.

LaMonte, Monday, 2 April 2012 03:49 (fourteen years ago)

Also, I think the Who would be more likely to do a Heinz beans ad.

This brings us back to the dinner/supper thread

Nicholas Pokémon (silby), Monday, 2 April 2012 04:27 (fourteen years ago)

lolromney part was funny.

Loved watching Pete burn Roger in front of the whole office.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 2 April 2012 04:28 (fourteen years ago)

best: Megan gamely saying "yes" in response to something Mrs. Heinz said in just the same way Don gamely says "yes" when he just needs the conversation to continue.

worst: Betty eating ice cream was too """on the nose"""

Nicholas Pokémon (silby), Monday, 2 April 2012 04:28 (fourteen years ago)

Don Draper saying "yes" is like my favorite thing about this show

I read this as her previously overstepping/being too modern ("well, don was divorced...") and realizing that "yes" is the correct answer, even if she found work talk exciting from a professional pov.

Waxahachie Swap (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Monday, 2 April 2012 04:40 (fourteen years ago)

Didn't Betty "Yes" her way through dinners just like that in season 1 or am I not remembering correctly?

*tera, Monday, 2 April 2012 04:51 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah, but I think she had two modes because I remember her asking which kind of wife she should be a dinner they were going to.

bettybot, meet romneybot!

Nicholas Pokémon (silby), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:04 (fourteen years ago)

worry about a season long fat-suit tbh.

stay in school if you want to kiw (Gukbe), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:05 (fourteen years ago)

the fat is a metaphor for america getting sluggish and needing revolution do u c

1 week to "Charles Dingus" (forksclovetofu), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:10 (fourteen years ago)

She said yes to Mrs. Heinz saying soemething like "We're boring hou, aren't we?", which seemed tactless.

)Dre( vs. (Eazy), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:14 (fourteen years ago)

better than peggy's fatsuit

Waxahachie Swap (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Monday, 2 April 2012 05:26 (fourteen years ago)
