| Oh my gosh, I LOVE this show!
I taped the Season 1 marathon that they ran about mid- July but it was during my play so it has taken me this long to catch up. This past weekend I taped Season 2 episodes 4 & 5. Then I watched episode 1 online. Unfortunately I had to just read the recaps for the next two episodes. But I am caught up now and can hardly wait for Sunday nights. LOL This show is every bit as good as the critics have claimed. |
| Judi! ISN'T IT GREAT!? I love the show. Not too many of the charactors are likable people...but, boy, are they ever interesting!!!! |

Are there any Deb? 
Seriously, just about everyone has done something pretty bad in that show - yet somehow you want to tune in every week. 
Like any depiction these characters are to an extreme - bored housewives, womanizing executives, slutty secretaries, conniving backstabbing junior executives AND they all smoke incessantly!!!! But some of that did/does exist. I was telling Tim that I can remember people who walked around with a cigarette in their hand constantly when I was a little kid. We even had an ashtray out in our living room in case you entertained people who were smokers. It was just an accepted fact that smoking was a right. Now the tides have totally turned - even the most addicted smokers I know are made to feel like pariahs if they want to smoke. It is interesting too how they had the expectant neighbor drinking alcohol the whole pregnancy. |
OK!! I gotta watch this show!!!!!!!  Sundays??? What channel?????? |
| Its on Sunday at 9 on AMC. If you have the On Demand feature with your cable, they show it there, too. How crazy is it that the little girl makes her parents drinks? Being of a "certain" age, I remember smoking at work. Every desk came equiped with an ashtray. I even remember going to the Doctor's office and having him offer my mom a cigarette, while he smoked during the consult. And...I also remember Manager's keeping bottle of liquor in their offices, and drinking at work. That was considered very cool at the time. They have truly captured the "feel" of that era. Really well done! |

Where is the falling over and need to be revived emoticon? I thought your television only tuned into TV Land or the History Channel. :wink: The show is on Sunday nights at 9:00 central time on AMC. This Sunday they are rerunning the five episodes of Season Two starting at 4:00. Then the new episode at 9:00. It is really a great show and a mini six hour marathon is the best way to get sucked in. |
| Oh man this series just keeps getting better and better.
I love how they pull in actual events and how they affect the characters - like the women over Marilyn Monroes death or how everyone was assessing their behavior and making confessions over fear with the Cuban Missile Crisis. Okay so who saw the season finale last night? I saw Betty's big news coming. But you could have knocked me over that Peggy told Pete her news. I figured he would find it out through someone else. I cannot wait to see how he tries to get his hands on his biological child. Lastly, I loved it when Don told Paul he didn't have a contract with Sterling Cooper. Does anyone know when the next season starts? |
| I didn't get to watch, but will later in the week. How fast did this season go?! I get so wrapped up in it. I can't believe it's over!!! I think the story line with the "other" Mrs. Draper in CA is very intreging. I thought the group of people Don ran off with, was very sleazy...I LOVE IT!!!! |
| Don was on SNL this week and I thought he was great. So good, that I want to watch the show now. I hope it's available On Demand! |

It is! Not that I really know what that is. But they say it is available every episode.  |
