Yes. I was a heathen last year. I started TiVoing it partway through when I heard about it, but then decided that I didn't want to watch only half the season. As soon as it was out on DVD I bumped it up to the top of my Netflix queue. I figure I'll watch the last two tomorrow and then I can watch the one that got TiVoed tonight.
Cable Drama: Still Waiting for the Cable Guy to Show Up with the Thread Name...
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
So, are you saying that we can't talk about last night's episode yet? I'm disappointed - I expected to come in to a million posts.
I have to say that I loved the whole Joan trying to figure out where to put the Xerox thing and also, showing her displeasure at Peggy by putting it in her office.
And Betty seems to be going off in a new and strange direction.
I'm guessing that the person that Don sent that package to was the Rachel.
Not saying you can't. I figured I'd avoid the thread until later tonight. Although I do appreciate your thoughtfulness!
Oh, and I loved Don's scene in the elevator.
If you haven't seen it yet - those who were lamenting the presence of any commercial interruption: on Sunday at least, they played the premiere with limited commercial interruption.
Yes, I think that yesterday's only had one commercial break, at 30 minutes in. It ended at 53 minutes. In order to encourage that sort of thing, I watched the commercials afterward. Well, I let them keep running while I surfed the net.
Liked the new ep. There was one ep that I hadn't seen last season (the one where Betty models), and I realized how many little moments inform the show, and what you miss. There was a great moment when Peggy looked at Joan and said "I just realized something. You think that you're helping", and it was SO telling.
I thought that the scene with Betty and the mechanic was interesting. I don't think it's the first time that she's realized that she can use her looks to get things from men. I did find it interesting that he just gave her the fan belt for $3, and asked nothing in return.
I thought that something bad was going to happen to Betty. . . or that she was going to do something she'd regreat later. Why do Betty's scenes so often bring on the creep factor?
well, she's just so needy and vulnerable.
exactly. I told Beau - man I hope she isn't raped.
I still don't understand why Betty just didn't tell the man, can I give you $3 now and I'll bring you the other $6 tomorrow at your office.
It could also be looking at the situation with modern eyes. The kinds of things we're thinking of were almost unheard of in those days. Of course, that's contrasted by those guys in the elevator.
