One of the best TV series ever ends tonight. All the characters seem to be dispersing as their agency has been swallowed up by a much bigger advertising agency. Joan (perhaps my favorite character) has left in disgust with the rampant sexism of the acquiring ad agency. Pete Campbell is taking a better job with Learjet. And Don Draper just walked out of his job to take a baffling road trip. My guess is Don will jump out a window before the end of the program. I’ll miss the quirky stories and characters in Mad Men. And I’ll miss these marvelous actors. This is the end of an era.
There was a Spoiler on the net this morning: It all turns out to be a dream–the world is really run by apes!
Dan, I’m still convinced Don Draper is going to jump out a window.
Only metaphorically I’d guess. This is without doubt my favorite all-time TV show.
Patti, I share your feelings about MAD MEN. It was a show that took risks and let actors act. Now, we’re going to be stuck with a lot of Reality TV when MAD MEN is gone. What did you think of MAD MAX: FURY ROAD?
We still haven’t seen an episode, but I’m considering some binge watching of season 1.
Rick, you’re in for a wild ride with Season One of MAD MEN!
