Ted Chaough must suffer! That is my most wishful goal of the season finale this coming Sunday after he ruined one of the best moments of the season, Don’s brilliant “Why I’m Quitting Tobacco” ad and the moments that followed.

I am not going to lie, after one viewing of this week’s episode of Mad Men, Chinese Wall; I can’t help but think that this was one of my least favorite episodes of the show yet.

Well crap, just when things started to look up a bit for a good portion of the family of SCDP, things go flying and hit the fan.

Focusing on the women in Mad Men’s life is a common occurrence for the show but I don’t know if it has ever been as exclusively displayed as this. Outside his interactions with Sally and Faye, Don doesn’t really have a story here and surprisingly it didn’t really hurt the episode.

So I have been hustling and bustling back and forth half way across the country these last 10 days and have neglected reviewing the last two weeks of Mad Men. Well I am here today to right that wrong in a couple of brief recaps and some bullets about the missed episodes on the site. Hope you enjoy and I will fully recap/review the final episodes of the season in a timely manor.

We have hit bottom. At least I really, really hope we have. But in hitting Don Draper’s rock bottom, we were given the best episode of Mad Men yet.

Oh, Mr. Draper. How far you have fallen and when we thought the hole could get no deeper you make it ever so. [Read more...]

A team of three is beginning to become very plainly clear to be the real heart and minds behind SCDP and one of those three doesn’t even have their name on the sign.

I think a better title for this episode would have been, “Don and Lane’s Excellent New Years Adventure.” That segment last night was hands down the funniest seven minutes or so of Mad Men in this viewer’s opinion and was a brilliant addition to an already terrific season of Mad Men.
TV Review: Mad Men 4.1: Public Relations (Season Premiere)

“Who is Don Draper?” A man who won’t meddle with the meddlers apparently, as the Season 4 premiere of Mad Men showed us.
Picking up almost a year after the coup of Sterling Cooper formed the new Sterling Cooper Draper & Price, in swanky new window filled, colorful couches, and conference table less offices, the new team is barely keeping their head above water as Lucky Strike accounts for 71% of their billings. But this episode isn’t about the new firm, as much as it is Don Draper and his importance to firm.
This story’s opening line also opens the episode as Don marginalizes and brushes off the interviewer that is writing a story about him and the firm. Draper doesn’t care and it of course comes to bite everyone in the ass. Through out the episode every familiar face tells Don how important he is and what he means to this company as Don brushes them off and suggests that his work should do all of his talking.
