Wow ...

Again, Megan's lifestyle is due to Don, not the other way around.

And Don WAS a man about it and took the blame.
What??? I don't think that's a fair statement and it's kind of "borderline" (TOS).

Yes, back to fighting weight...rocking horizontal stripes. Poor Betty. WTH? Where is all that impeccable taste in clothes back in Seasons 1 and 2 that she seemed to come by almost instinctively?

On the other hand, we have Megan..with the weapons of young, hip and hot in her arsenal. Betty's gonna have to bring the Princess Grace, the Jackie O. and whatever else she can find in that closet and compete with Megan on her own terms, instead of Megan's.

Megan has already proved she doesn't want to be a mother; so there won't be any children there and no need for a nanny for the kids; but she could use a good dentist. I doubt whether Betty will let the kids go to Don's apt. unless Don is there; right so, he had no business being at the office knowing his children were alone. They are not Megan's responsibility; the age difference between she and Don is surfacing. She wants a life of her own like here mother. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Don had that cough when he was a child, and maybe it is a nervous condition when he is under duress? He was under multiple issues in the last episode, plus his digressing into his past tremendously stressful experiences enduring cruelty seemed to have set him off. He doesn't handlle stress well, and drinks to avoid it.

Betty is so insecure ! the need for her to "brag" about Henry's political endeavors was lame. Don could care less.

In real life, Jon Hamm ... not the marryin' kind:

I want to see more story lines on the minor characters like Stan, Harry, Ginsberg, and Ken. I'm kind of tired of Don's (and Pete's) endless sociopathic dysfunction. And I'm still missing Paul Kinsey. I liked his 60s intelligentsia hipster-turned-HareKrishna-hippie character.

Bitchy Betty is back and I couldn't be happier. Besides, she was right about the casting couch. Don and Megan screwed up.

Just watched John Hamm on Letterman from April 26, 2013. He comes off as very friendly with a good sense of humor. He made a funny comment about his MM character at the end of Season 6. He also had a funny story about teaching eight graders.

Jon Hamm has great comedic skills especially liked him on 30 Rock.

He's been on SNL a few times -- really funny!! He's hosted, and other times just had a cameo (the fake Lawrence Welk singer). Just saw him on Graham Norton -- very quick wit! They had a Mad Men "action figure" of Don Draper -- he made comments about not letting it get too close to your other dolls!

I didn't take it as bragging. More like "please keep your nose clean and free from scandal", so as not to have an effect on the campaign.

I saw that on Graham Norton. Love love that show. Too bad they moved it from Saturday.
