Mad Men


My problem with Mad Men is I don't care about any of the shit outside of the office. I like it in the office - the dealings, the shadiness, the snapping etc. Plus, it lends itself best to the colors and decor that we like to look at re: the 1060s.

I don't care about the wives, the homes, whatever. Yes, I know they're supposed to be a way of showing us more of the main characters' depth etc, but who cares. Just gimme office scenes! Plus, it seems like all these ancillary characters are just reasons to show different types of neuroses. Gee, housewives get bored? REEEEEEEEEEEALLY???!!?!! You can't just have a normal housewife; no, it's gotta be housewife who does things like inexplicably breaks a dining room table in the middle of the day. Camon.

MORE OFFICE STUFF!!

What?! The two best scenes this season were out of the office:

1. Jimmy Barrett calling Draper "garbage" last week

2. The priest rocking out this week.
