MM Season 3 interview with Matthew Weiner: [link]

"... I am always surprised that no one asks me why I was writing about Don Draper. [Laughs] I think it's about admitting the most negative qualities in yourself and how you overcome them. ... I've always identified with Don and Peggy and all of those characters. They're multiple sides of my personality, and I'm thrilled there's an audience out there that's not threatened by investigating what's wrong with us."

Interview with Sally Draper: [link]

I can't believe the actress is really 10 years old, reading some of her responses. She sounds much more mature.

That's an interesting article, and it has some of the most polite, responsive comments I've ever seen online.

Te-Nesi Coates goes to a great deal of trouble to make that happen. Strongly moderates both his own style and the approach others make. He moderates for tone as well as specific rules.

I concur with TB. It really shows that you can have good commentary on blogs, but it takes work. It's like relationships.

I can't believe the actress is really 10 years old, reading some of her responses. She sounds much more mature.

The only answer that pinged me was this:

I think Sally's actually much better than I would be, given her situation. Sally is really, really reserved. Divorce can be terribly stressful and confusing. Add to that an emotionally unresponsive mother and a physically absent father, I think Sally's actions are pretty tame. If I was experiencing Sally's situation, I would be a complete terror of a kid.

But I can imagine that as her just repeating stuff that she's been told.

Terriers here?

Yep. How much did I love the conversation in the truck? Hilarious! and I loved the "don't judge me" at the end.

I've been converted.

I thought Terriers was in Minearverse?

Jessica is correct.

Crap! I missed an episode?
