Umm, it does?
Cable Drama: Still Waiting for the Cable Guy to Show Up with the Thread Name...
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
Not literally -- he's referring to the closeup on the "Don Draper" nameplate.
And I cannot believe that you think it impossible for a child to be abused by his biological parents.
Oh, that's not at all what I think. It just seemed to me that his "father" was treating him like one might treat a nephew or something. I don't mean in terms of abuse, but just the remoteness if that makes sense. I just felt like that man didn't really seem part of the household if that makes any sense.
Let me be specific. I thought that the behavior of Draper's "parents" was in direct opposition to the gender relationships between all the married men in the ad agency. When the hobo came to the house, the "wife" spoke first, the husband was in the background. The wife invited the hobo in and the wife gave him $$, that the husband took from the hobo but lied about it.
If it were Don Draper and his wife, he wouldn't have allowed her to give $$ to a stranger. He wouldn't have bothered with "let him work for it first" lie when his intent all along wasn't to give him $$. It seemed to me given the gender dynamics that the wife had the power and that the husband couldn't/wouldn't assert his authority. This is in pretty stark contrast to Don, Pete, etc. in the present.
They have a strange relationship and the "husband" didn't quite seem like he belonged.
From Zap2it's TV Gal:
Joel Murray is the ad man who let Peggy write the copy on "Mad Men." He was Danny on "Still Standing" and Pete on "Dharma & Greg." Paul Sculze was the homeless man in Don's flashback. He was Father Phil Intintola on "The Sopranos" and Ryan Chappelle on "24."And all this week's bonus points go to Ginny who recognized Barry Livingston, Ernie on "My Three Sons," as one of the guys in the art department.
West Coast people: The Closer runs about 2-3 minutes long, so set your DVRs accordingly.
I love the way her team works.
It did?
I could swear I saw the whole thing.
Huh.
I love the way her team works too.
I lost the very last seconds, despite the fact that I had taped Saving Grace right after it.
I liked the way this season ended, but it wasn't the exciting ending of last season. I think I was expecting a little more.
I thought I watched through the end credits. Did they do something afterword type thing?
