I totally missed this until FAQWife pointed it out: One of the women at the LSD party (I think the one who seemed to live there) was the mom on My So-Called Life -- Bess Armstrong.
I got to point that out to JZ and she's the biggest MSCL fan ever.
Zoe: Uh huh. River, honey? He's putting the hair away now. River: It'll still be there... waiting.
'Jaynestown'

To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Okay, that episode was much better when I wasn't falling asleep during it.

Loved Roger and Jane lying on the floor of the bedroom contemplating the ceiling together.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yeah, but I was already thinking "Oh, it's her! Who her? I'll remember in a minute," when you threw me off by saying, "Isn't that Mary Hurt? The girl's mom on My So-Called Life?" So I spent the next few minutes puzzling over whether you meant Mary Kay Place and I'd just missed a bunch of surgeries and weight losses and trying to find Sharon's mom's face in hers.
Don chasing Megan through their apartment was just harrowing to watch--they were both so furious and panicked and totally beyond all control.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Wasn't Bess Armstrong in the mini-series Lace?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Man, I fucking loved "Lace." Trashy and delicious.

Because books.
I loved the book better. Pure popcorn, but with lots of delicious period detail.

Yeah, I can't see how anyone could possibly see that as not violent. It was scary.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
It felt more desperate to me than violent--but, of course, desperation can lead to violence. I thought the Roger/Jane scenes were wonderfully surprising (who thought their marriage would end because of intimacy instead of more fighting?) and beautifully written and acted.

I concur. That was one of the scenes I had in mind when I said Mad Men gives me scenes I've never seen before.
