Bump. New season starts tonight! I can't wait. The season 2 finale was superb.

I hope they don't make this too inane looking to write new material. Stay with the formula.

I just love watching this show. Nothing could happen and I'd still like watching it because of the atmosphere.

Need to watch the premier again... was kinda tired watching it last night and felt like I missed something... or rather, watch the season 2 finale again then watch it.

Ok. (Ok)

Re: Mad Men set to return for Season 3 (MadMen)

Such a curious, quirky show. I think the novelty has worn off, but the office politics and history story lines still draw attention.

But, tell me you sit there and don't say to yourself, "man, what it would have been like to have that job in that era handling things like they do."

Reminder: no spoilers in here guys.

Peter Campbell gets under my skin so ****in' bad, I just wanna punch the dude in the face. Peggy was 100% right what she told him in the season 2 finale, dude's an ***.

Spoiler

I keep pullin' for my man Don to keep from hittin all that strange ***, but dude just keeps on going.

No surprise on Sal, though. If it wasn't obvious before Kosgrove had dinner at his house its pretty damn obvious now. I liked how Don handled though, he truly knows the value of a secret.

It was pretty obvious about Sal before that. (C'mon...really... flit, flit.) But the dude has that likeable class about him. When the Peter/Ken thing came off that way..... that was the best moment of this installment. You knew little priss boy was going to get bunched. And, ya, Don..... keep the lipstick off the dipstick!

Oh yeah, I had my suspicions about Sal before that, so the dinner in season 2 just solidified it for me.

I'm really enjoying Peggy's evolution as a character. It has been nice to see her character build up and gain more courage and self-esteem.

I laughed pretty hard at Betty's lesbian-tool line. Good stuff.


And the scenes every episode needs in it:
Don coming in through the door at home taking his hat off. Straight up pimp shot.
Miss Holloway walking away - looks like she's throwing her hips out of place, damn.

So, what do we think happened to Duck? Rehab?

So, what do we think happened to Duck? Rehab?

Spoiler

I'm expecting a "flash-back" episode or at least some kind of 3-month recap of what has happened. I felt like there were two things they needed to address at the beginning of the season: Duck losing his position as President of SterlingCooper and the last time we saw Peter in season 2 was sitting in a dark office with his rifle and a glass of whiskey.

Hot damn, i knew there was a reason why I liked the Mad Men intro song so much. RJd2 is the man.

I've been watching Angel and Buffy for the first time and Angel's kid is Pete Campbell. It's very weird watching him 10 years before this. I knew he was somebody but I couldn't figure out who he was, and it just hit me during the Season Four opening episode of Angel. A(n) eureka moment for sure.
