October 11, 2010
By early September 1965, Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce is being forced into a wartime mindset, and while Don Draper is a supreme commander when he’s not hitting the Jamesons too hard, he makes two crucial mistakes late in this episode and it’s hard to imagine any of this working out on the bright side. Sure,... Read More

Video of the Day: P—ed Jeans, “False Jesii, Part 2″
September 29, 2010
The mode of armchair art criticism I hate the most, and I hate it more than I hate many things, is the assertion that “Hell, I could do that.”

“Mad Men” Recap, 409: “The Beautiful Girls”
September 23, 2010
Well, so much for the chaste, “That’s as far as I can go right now” Don Draper, but our anti-hero is still the guy we met in “The Summer Man” — fighting his way back, regaining his power.
