Mad Men Post Mortem: Man with a Plan

MM_607_MY_0122_0800So, we got some of our questions from last week answered, but were left with a few others. Like, where the hell is Dawn? What is this new agency calling itself? We still had a lot going on this week, but it wasn’t as BAG! BOOM! POW! as last week’s episode. At least it wasn’t like that for me.

Mad Men Open Thread: Season 6, Episode 3

Mad_Men_Season_6,_Promotional_PosterWelcome back, folks. Sad to see another weekend go by, but excited for a new episode of Mad Men. Last week left us with so many questions (well, me at least anyways). I’m excited to see what “doorways” our characters go through this season and where each one leads them.

If you missed out because you don’t have cable, AMC has made the premiere available online until April 30, 2013.  My comments will be a little late this week since I’ll be headed back from the airport during the show, but they will be there!

Mad Men Post-Mortem: The Doorway

Mad Men 6x1.2

“What are the events in life? It’s like, you see a door. The first time you come to it you say, “Oh, What’s on the other side of the door?” Then you open a few doors. And then you say, “I think I want to go over that bridge this time, I’m tired of doors.” Finally you go through one of these things and you come out the other side and then you realize that’s all there are: doors! And windows and bridges and gates and they all open the same way and they all close behind you.”

Mad Men Open Thread: Season 6, Episodes 1 and 2

Mad_Men_Season_6,_Promotional_PosterI am so excited that it is time for Mad Men again. We’re going to have our Open Threads on Sundays and then a Post-Mortem Post on Mondays. Big thanks to APieceoftheContinent who will be helping me out with the post-mortems this season. In the open threads we’ll talk about the show as it happens, so it will be FULL OF SPOILERS (sorry left coasters). In the post-mortems we will be digesting the previous night’s episode. Feel free to share your thoughts and links to favorite recaps in the post-mortemsn. This will also be FULL OF SPOILERS.
