Mad Men - Season 7 (2014 / 2015 Matthew Weiner)

1969. I did not like the episode in which Don comes back to the office and is made to wait around all day whilst the staff treat him as though he's toxic; then he's finally summoned to the partners who insist he can't behave like Don anymore... and he meekly accepts. Then he has to work for Peggy...

Sally: "I'd stay here until 1975 if I could get my mom underground." That's a line that has quite ironic significance by the end.

We're going off Peggy... At least she and Don are finally reconciled over some burger pitch...

Ben Feldman (Jesus, he goes crazy..), Elizabeth Moss, Jay R. Ferguson

An Omega Seamaster Deville. There are all sorts of watches on his wrist throughout the seasons


Robert Towne is a consulting producer..

This ends episode seven - there was then a year before eight resumed... Eight was dedicated to Mike Nichols.

Bye bye Bert.. Robert Morse will be 89 on May 18.


John Dos Passos was a writer noted for his 'USA Trilogy'.

The poster is Moshe Dayan, Israeli military leader and politician:






 "Where's Don? He walked out of a meeting Wednesday and hasn't been seen again." We wondered if the ending Coke ad suggests Don's returned and that's his work. Loved Don's wanderings.. that left turn, where the nice motel veteran turns nasty, thinking he's stolen the money. And then testing high speed cars in the desert...
