He’s observant but I wonder if he will follow through on that observation and come to the correct conclusion as to the clause.“We’re at a place where the idea of being ‘elite’ is somehow considered negative,” he tells the April issue of Elle UK. “Whether it’s Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated.”
The “Mad Men” actor added that these days, “being a[n] (censored by me) idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you’re rewarded significantly. … It’s celebrated. It doesn’t make sense to me."
I know! I’m always hoping that Sal Romano will make a little re-appearance just to let everyone know he’s okay, but it’s not really in the style of the show. As for Betty, yes, she is a character everyone loves to hate. I get so angry when she is mean to her kids. One thing I liked about Meagan Draper at the end of the fourth season was how well she treated the kids. I actually quite like Meagan so far. I thought that Peggy gave her kid with Pete up for adoption. This season has been great so far. I love the subtlety of the show. It’s always a highlight of my week. What do you think of Pete overall? I flip flop, but he ends up doing things that make me dislike him. He’s a well written and acted character though.Yes, I watch the show. I think it was a big leap for Betty to have gained weight. How the make-up artists did that is amazing. She’s a cold fish and I never could understand how Don was attracted to her in the first place. Don’s womanizing was disgusting and I was getting tired of it. I don’t know why we don’t hear more about the female copy exec.'s out of wedlock child that, supposedly, is being raised by her Mom. That part of the story was conveniently dropped. Nor is there any explanation of whatever happened to the gay writer who left the firm. I’m enjoying this season’s episodes.
I think somewhere in the series it was mentioned that the female exec;s baby was adopted, not sure when I heard that. And Betty (in real life) had a baby (whom she refused to reveal the father). I think that perhaps the scenes where she had gained so much weight was when she was pregnant. A few tops on her almost looked like maternity clothes too. I guess I am hooked on the series too unless it shows too much sex like it did in a few previous seasons. I think all and all so far it’s been pretty tame, but I’m thinking that Don and his current wife will eventually split. Anyone out there know why she’s a copywriter now? I know before their marriage she was Don’s secretary,Yes, I watch the show. I think it was a big leap for Betty to have gained weight. How the make-up artists did that is amazing.

I don’t like Pete. He’s too plasticky and reminds me of a cyborg. I liked it when he got beat up by Lane.I know!

I can’t get enough of it. It’s quite different from anything else on television. I’m really enjoying Season 5.Does anyone watch this show? I think I might be obsessed; I actually get excited on the weekends knowing that I’ll have a new episode on Sunday. I think it’s a great character study. It’s an aesthetically pleasing show as well. Just all around very well done.
I have mixed feelings about almost all the characters. Few of them are completely likable or unlikable, and it works. There have been times when I have felt sympathetic to the travails of Pete Campbell, but the episode in which Lane cleaned his clock was not one of them.I don’t like Pete. He’s too plasticky and reminds me of a cyborg. I liked it when he got beat up by Lane.
Well, that’s hardly an indicator of anything.It’s been exceptional from the first episode. As witnessed by the number of Emmys.
Pete is a slimy character to me. He knows a little about Don’s past (shown last season when he opened a package that was addressed to Don) so just waiting for him to blackmail him with the info. Also got Peggy pregnant and he plays around too much. And I did like Lane beating up on him, it’s about time.I don’t like Pete. He’s too plasticky and reminds me of a cyborg.

Pete’s problem is he doesn’t know how to enjoy life. His greatest ambition is to be Don Draper, which he’ll never do. I have felt sorry for him in the past for the way the senior partners fail to give him the respect he earns by working hard and bringing in clients. The last few episodes he appears to be attempting aggressively to rectify that, however.Pete is a slimy character to me.

All in all though I think he plays the character well. Hope he is a nice guy in reality.
If Don gets a divorce then that’ll be his third divorce. Roger’s already on his third. These guys just can’t just can’t stick to one person.Last night’s episode was awesome. The Pete/Lane fight from the previous week was ridiculous in a good way haha. I’m also wondering if Don and Megan will split eventually, but so far I like her character. She’s pretty strong-willed I think.
Peggy’s Mom got the best line, “I’m taking my cake because I’m not celebrating you shacking up.” or words to that effect. Peggy’s making it in a man’s world. I find it out of character that she would not have spoken up for what she wanted…marriage…considering she’s already been burned having a child out of wedlock.How good was last night’s episode? This show is top-notch. Oh man, I think I am obsessed.
To be honest, I thought it was a bit less interesting than the previous two episodes. A lot of the conflict seemed contrived to me. It’s not obvious to me why we should find Meghan’s father’s hang-ups so compelling, for example. And was Peggy really surprised by her mother’s reaction to her announcement that her boyfriend is moving in? Her mother has always been old-school – and Catholic. I’m glad the Heinz people finally got what they wanted, because that story line was beginning to wear out its welcome.How good was last night’s episode? This show is top-notch. Oh man, I think I am obsessed.
