They'...I hope they get to that point next year. They've dropped little hints to it over this season and last season where Don essentially completely lost his mojo. And they've given little hints that some of his charm is wearing off - last season was the first time he tried to put the moves on a girl who laughed at him, a subtle suggestion that he isn't as irresistible anymore as he believes himself to be.<br /><br />My big hope is that we get to see some actual psychological carnage in this series before it ends in a couple of year. If the point of the show is to take us into the 1970s and the new-ish world, you've got to have a couple of casualties. And by that I mean metaphorical ones, not the real kind like Lane ended up being.<br /><br />Although, honestly, what I really want to see at the end of this show is a final shot from behind of Peggy, sitting on a couch, drinking her scotch reflecting the animated image of Don that we see in the credits.<br /><br />Basically, I'm Team Peggy all the way is what I'm saying.Clovishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09630640582674493366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27899397.post-46075062160370915382012-06-25T21:03:13.473-04:002012-06-25T21:03:13.473-04:00I definitely agree that Mad Men doesn't do muc...I definitely agree that Mad Men doesn't do much to acknowledge the times they are a changing, but I think that's kind of the point. <br /><br />For the most part, all these people are woefully unprepared for what's happening (and coming). One day Don Draper is going to wake up and find himself hopelessly out of touch--which was touched on a lot this season--at the Rolling Stones concert, Don competing with the younger copy writers, etc. <br /><br />They aren't prepared, they aren't dealing with it, and it's going to bite them in the ass.Maggie Catshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09883765124150271927noreply@blogger.com
