Agreed on GOT. Wished he'd suffered more but the fact that it happened in front of everyone when he was acting like the sadistic tool he was helped a little.
Apparently the actor Jack Gleeson is quitting acting. Too bad because he'll probably have offers thrown his way albeit just the same type of character. He was so very good in the role.
I had some professors who were rather Joffrey-like...
I really like him, though. I've heard he's a total sweetheart IRL. Peter Dinklage confirmed on his AMA Reddit that he didn't like the slapping scene because he really likes Jack Gleeson.
Meghan had better start making some money soon. That house can't be cheap, and the car must have cost a mint.
This episode only took place 6 weeks after last season's finale, but the characters have moved to LA and settled in awfully quickly. Seemed off for that reason.
Weiner is messing with the fans, hinting at Megan as Sharon Tate. My bet is that in the end, Megan will have just left the house right before they were all murdered. Or if he wants to really fuck with us, he'll have Megan join Manson's cult and be involved in the murders from the other end.
What's with the new Creative Director caring so little about advertising? I don't know of anyone who would make it to the CD level without caring about advertising that little.
Poor Ken -- though his toss to Joanwas hilarious. They need to hire some new accounts people to help him out.
I don't watch anymore (I plan to catch up someday), but I saw a headline that said (POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT!!!) that Don Draper died in last night's episode. Is that true?
I wonder how Don is going to end up? Washed up or finally complete.
ReplyDeleteWho watched GOT last night?!
ReplyDeleteWoah what a night.
Ray - alltime favorite moment when Joffrey gets his!!
DeleteAlthough too quick - would have liked him to suffer a little more.
DeleteYeah, in the book it seemed he suffered more than on the show but GRRM wrote last night's episode, all in all, I'm glad he's gone.
DeleteFINALLY! I've been waiting for Jeoffrey's wedding since season one!
DeleteI mean that outfit Mrs. Draper rocked at the airport was BANANAS. Loved it! And the wheels.
ReplyDeletePete Campbell steals every scene.
I was miffed that there was no Betty.
It was a good opener, I thought. I loathe the two-hour premieres. Too slow moving.
I can't wait to see what happens to Peggy and Joan. I love the wimins.
How about Roger with his hippie drug sexcapades?!? OMG. The filth. That's how I envision Lindsay Lohan's apartment to look like. LOL.
I got home from Florida last night to no power. Supergreat. Ice cream... meet trashcan
ReplyDeleteI don't need no wheels, I don't need no gasoline.
ReplyDeleteWhere was Peggy Olsen's cat?
ReplyDeleteCan Weiner stop with the Sharon Tate/Megan Draper stuff already?
Bring me KIERNAN SHIPKA! She's the best actor on the show.

I think he's going back to college to become a professor. He is quite talented as an actor tho.
DeleteAs evil as Joff was, Ramsay Snow is so much worse and he still lives.
Might be a smart move- he could only play evil roles for a while.

Mrs. Draper rocked the show last night for sure-agreed on that outfit at the airport....almost didn't know it was her
ReplyDeleteI love that Don is playing Cyrano and nobody knows.....not even his wife
great opening.....can't wait to see how it will all resolve....
Meghan had better start making some money soon. That house can't be cheap, and the car must have cost a mint.

What happened to Ken's eye again??
Delete'Member when he was just an all around nice guy who wrote on the side? That Kenny would NEVER have treated Joan that way!
DeleteTexas, Ken was shot in the face by the GM exec's (they went hunting and, well, there was a mishap.)
ReplyDeleteThx I forgot about that. He looks like a mess this season.
DeleteOh and Neve Campbell......yes
ReplyDeleteSo is Ramsay Snow related to Jon Snow or do they give all bastard children the surname Snow?
ReplyDeleteDon will never be complete or happy IMO.
All bastard children of the North are given the surname Snow.
DeleteWas to busy Watching Game of Thrones. Without giving away any spoilers...this episode brought me such great joy at the end,I had to watch it twice.
ReplyDeletethat last scene when he said he had to leave, didnt want to leave his wife alone...and leaves her alone and it breaks her down
ReplyDeleteLOVED that part!
I don't watch anymore (I plan to catch up someday), but I saw a headline that said (POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT!!!) that Don Draper died in last night's episode. Is that true?
ReplyDeleteLoved Freddy Rumsen. :-)
ReplyDeleteSpoiler alert...
ReplyDeleteDon Draper did not die last night. Get thee to AMCTV.com to check it out! :-)
Loved the Mad Men season opener, but I admit it was hard to concentrate after that Game of Thrones stunner. Wow!
ReplyDeleteI love this time of year when both shows are on!
Yeah it was hard to pay proper attention to mm after the come down of got.
ReplyDeleteTina I wondered the same thing. I thought hmm..they do look similar. Hahaha! Thanks for clearing it up Lowkey.
ReplyDeleteThought it was ok. Glad there are only 6 more episodes this season, don't think I could sit through 12 more.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Megan will be involved with the Manson murders in any way. Weiner loves Pare too much to kill her off or turn her into a bad girl.
ReplyDeleteFreddy Rumsen - spot ON.
ReplyDeleteI also woke up yesterday and had dinner. More news most people don't care about.
