Roger starts dating Sally

Don has to die at the end, right? Continuity of work in New York is not an option (because it's not an ending) and Hawaii would be a cop out.
He could yet be arrested or fired, but I'm sure pretty much any other major character dying would have a bigger emotional impact. But they don't actually need to kill anyone off for the sake of drama, they've already gone down that road, and I kind of hope they don't.
Thank fuck no one jumps out of a window by the way.

So much shit to work round in the last season as well - Sharon Tate murder, Nixon inauguration, moon landing, Stonewall riots, last performance of the Beatles maybe, Roger Sterling at Woodstock definitely.
― Matt DC, Sunday, 23 June 2013 10:39 (eleven years ago) link
Is the finale 45mins too or double length?
― Le Bateau Ivre, Sunday, 23 June 2013 11:21 (eleven years ago) link
None of that stuff really has to be addressed except for the moon landing. I know it's been said before, but the less Forrest Gump the better.
― Dan I., Sunday, 23 June 2013 11:25 (eleven years ago) link
oops i guess woodstock might be a big deal too
Sally and Glen go to Woodstock, run into Mrs. Rosen and Don doing it again as The Dead play "Turn On Your Lovelight".

Series ends with Don getting stomped to death while desperately seeking a speed-addled Sally at Altamont. Roger rides off with a Hells Angel babe. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" plays over the credits.
― something of an astrological coup (tipsy mothra), Sunday, 23 June 2013 23:24 (eleven years ago) link
...or, Don narrowly survives his Altamont stomping. But in his next big pitch, to try to dissuade Quaker Oats from promoting militarism with Cap'n Crunch, he says, "Why are we fighting? Why?"

why is it whenever a TV or movie character shares autobiographical data he must break down? As if Dick Whitman hadn't spent his adult life creating a character who can handle these moments with aplomb?
Unless, of course, he purposely wanted to self-destruct. But what the hell for?

TV guide was right

why is it whenever a TV or movie character shares autobiographical data he must break down?
It's a painful part of his past. He didn't break down, tho, really.
Obviously, he couldn't take it anymore. My guess is he's about to tell Sally about his past.
― copter (waterface), Monday, 24 June 2013 02:52 (eleven years ago) link
I mean he got overwhelmed but that was no way a breakdown
i don't know why don did that! a couple weeks ago i thought don should just move to california, but how would they do that. it's hard to look forward to another season of his toxic behavior though
pete's mom/manolo story is enjoyably batshit

what would sally's reaction be to hearing don's whole story?
shrug, right?
