Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did everyone see that the scene at the beginning of Mad Men at Young and Rubicam was straight out of the NYTimes from Memorial Day weekend, 1966? Down to the heavy-handed dialogue.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Those people who are planning to go in against Limehouse in his own home are nuts.

True story.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ha, so I saw on facebook today that my eyes did not deceive me, and my favorite local (to Kentucky) carbonated beverage, Ale 8, has been showing up on Justified. That is so awesome.

Limehouse is freaking awesome, and scary in a quiet, hasn't been unleashed way that Quarles only aspires to.

Also, how much did I love, "His initials are Boyd Crowder."

Always Anti-fascist!

wrod...that was great. Favorite parts: Rachel's groin kick,Raylan and Art, the line about "feminine virtue", and the initials thing.

I actually rewound to watch the feminine virtue line again, because I loved it so much.

I LOVE THIS SEASON!

I was so fricking jealous that wasn't mine, I reckon I had physical pangs.(But it'll look right in the report when I steal it.) Last time I felt like that, Art was chasing that guy with the oxygen tank.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Apparently that prank with the Young and Rubicon (Y&R) guys dropping water bombs on Civil Rights protestors was a real incident that the NY Times reported on.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

And so begins the rehabbing of Betty (Draper) Francis.

It was an interesting narrative gambit to write her pregnancy weight into the story (without Betty being pregnant), and made her character more vulnerable. And the cancer scare will (one hopes) give the character a pivot so she won't be so monstrous as she's been trending over the last two seasons.

January looked a lot like young Cybil Shepherd in this episode.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I have a feeling they'll just make Henry worse and worse so we'll like Betty more.

In other news: daaaaaamn, Pete. I am kind of afraid about Roger tossing him through that window.
