Mad Men 4/19 - "The Forecast"

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

What can you say about a Mad Men where the Betty scenes were the most awesome?

GLENN OMG

CAPTAIN PIKE A IS DOUCHEBAG TO JOAN OMG

EVERYBODY IS OVER OILY DON OMG

And once again, the last image is Don standing alone, stricken...is this the way every episode is going to end from now on?

Greg Brady Glenn goes to war..."We wanna watch The Brady Bunch" "Give me that!" (Betty tosses the gun into the trash) -- that was a bit much, but not without a degree of deliciousness...

I thought it was the best of the half season (but there's only been three!) There was a bit more humour than the last few. And swearing (from Sally!) How long have they been able to say "fucking"?

It was good to have some good Betty scenes again because she was a good character when the show started then faded away for a while. I like the callbacks to the earlier seasons. Joan wore a tight dress. That was a callback to all the times she wore a tight dress.

Sassy Sally is the best. I hope she's in it again. Or we get a Sally spin-off series. Or a spin-off where Ken Cosgrove opens a detective agency and Sally comes to work for him.

The AV Club reviews of these final episodes have been better than the actual episodes.

It's been sprinkled over episodes all along. In the US, they don't bleep "shit" but they bleep "fuck" and "asshole". (ANTI-GAY MUCH?) But then you can hear it all on the DVD/Blu-ray.

Tom & Lorenzo were live tweeting last night, and they pointed out that Betty was wearing a similar yellow dress both in last night's scene, and back when she cut off a lock of hair for him.

Sassy Sally is the best. I hope she's in it again. Or we get a Sally spin-off series. Or a spin-off where Ken Cosgrove opens a detective agency and Sally comes to work for him.

I'd watch that for a dollar!
