Sequences in the last few episodes showing Don in his 'On the Road' phase make you long for The Further Adventures of Don Draper...
Fantastic finale to part one with Robert Morse performing 'The Best Things in Life Are Free'.
Loved the way the characters all change in fashion and appearance over the years (except Don). Fantastic attention to detail. Most interesting in its view of changing attitudes throughout; also in the way that creative ideas are developed (lots of booze).
Jon Hamm, Elisabeth Moss, John Slattery, Vincent Kartheiser, January Jones, Christina Hendricks, Aaron Staton, Rich Sommer, Kiernan Shipka, Jessica Paré.
Unique in the way people talk to each other, frequently in clipped, sardonic, elliptical conversations:
"This conversation's over. I'm really not interested."
Don talks as little as The Man with No Name, and is him.
Dedicated to Mike Nichols, and spotted at least two Graduate references.
Head of McCanns on Don: "He just walked out halfway through a meeting."
Roger: "He does that."
