Did you all know the series only goes up to series 7.

The reason why certain actors do not appear in all esps such as Peggy and Betty is all actors took a pay cut.

I didn't start watching MM until this current season, so I am so excited that Sky Atlantic are running series 1 from the start. It will be interesting to see where they all started from, and find out more to fill in the gaps.

Can't wait!

You Only Live Twice

Did we really need to see Heavy Breather Roger Naked.....did we.

Great end to the season, but felt more like the start of a new one....and I am so looking forward to the new Offices.


Lane's Legacy, 175K.....and methinks the Wife is going to be trouble, and that Photo in the Wallet....from way back, fuelling her anger....but I like how he returned, 'the ghost of'....as the Train Conductor, hitting Pete.
But Beth with the Shock Treatment, that's the sort of effect Pete has on people.
Loving Trudy's Pool.

Joan + Glasses =

Megan's Mum and Roger....Nooooooo.
Peggy looking out of her window...Nooooooo

"Don't smoke for 24 Hours"
And has Don 'Dick' walked away from Megan....Plus Adam in his day dream, with the Neck Marks, what the....


"Is this meeting over yet"

Super photo! Thanks Stansfield!

Haunting episode... poor Adam. I felt for Pete too.
It was a terrible era for women with depression. What happened to Beth was just awful. I can't believe though that Beth managed to let herself out of the hospital for the day to meet with Pete.

I agreed with Megan's mother. Megan was being a little madame. She got her commerical. I can imagine how her acting friends are going to react to it. I'm sure they'll make remarks about how her husband arranged it. Ironically she could have entered the world of commerical making and acting in them much more on her own merits if she stayed at the agency. She had a real chance with Cool Whip.

So what will happen in the next series? I hope Peggy comes back to Sterling Cooper Draper Price. I hope that Joan has her name as part of the company name.

I'm really going to miss Lane.

...not forgetting the English teacher, Miss Honey, in one of the most repeated films on TV, Matilda.

What a fabulous last three minutes. Perfect timing with the music, the lyrics fitting with each character. And 'Are you alone?' - not 'Are you single?' or 'Are you here alone?'.

Genius.

Like "The Village"
I read somewhere that Matt Weiner already has in mind that the very end will feature Don in the modern day. No idea how it will actually end though.

Good news! Season 6 starts in April so Sky Atlantic will hopefully show it round about the same time. Don Draper returns.....with or without Megan?

Hopefully without Megan. I've had enough of her.

More screentime should be given to Alison Brie.

Just read Weiner has confirmed that the entire Mad Men cast aside from Jared Harris will be back, so Peggy and Megan will be in Season 6.

Jared Harris wasn't going to return unless Don Draper used voodoo and a shovel.

I don't know - Denise Crosby managed to appear in an awful lot of star trek tng despite her character being dead

On a serious note, it's quite common to use flashbacks as a way of keeping an actor in a show.

Didn't anyone else get the impression that Megan and Don broke up at the end of the last season? She went "off" to be an actress and he went back to his batchelor ways.

Based on what they're saying during the promotionals for S6, it would appear I got that wrong?

Maybe they split up, then got back together. There might be flashbacks showing what happened.

I can't wait for S6. S5 was the best season to date.
Hope for more Peggy storylines.
