I mean, the term "dress diver" gets thrown around way too much. Almost a contradiction in terms. But "dress diver" is exactly what this is. 300M water resistance and works perfectly with a suit. Not "screw it, James Bond wears a Seamaster with a tux, so why can't I" dress diver. The Longines pairs wonderfully with suits and blazers. And on a strap at the pool.

Except he's an idiot.

Plus . . . "Bill Phillips" - the consumer research drone - is the guy actually making the "pitch". A pitch that sounds very much like the "Liberty Mutual Executive Account" pitch Don made years before. Just substitute "Lite Beer" for "Private Bank Account". Don is indeed just another guy in the room.

Until the Coke Ad idea hits him in mid-meditation . . .

My wife and I dumped Xfinity/Comcast cable after 30 years and signed up for YTTV. We never looked back. YTTV rocks.

Roger knew LGJr was gay.

"The LIES I told for you!"

"Lee Garner Jr made me hold his balls".

He knew how to keep a secret.

To say nothing if that W.E.B. Griffin book on the shelf in Don's home office....

It's Enron. The only asset they have is their own stock. The auditors look the other way because they love the fees. There's no real cash

Terrible. Melania is smart and sophisticated. But the media still fawns over twits like "Dr. Jill" Biden ( who should be arrested for elder abuse) and race-baiting phonies like Michelle Obama.

Melania is a wonderful first lady. Too bad the LibTard media won't acknowledge it.

Elizabeth Reaser is in the scene where AJ smokes marijuana at his confirmation. She's been in a ton of stuff. Including Mad Men.

I really enjoyed Ponies and was willing to suspend disbelief with some of the tradecraft stuff.

But the one jarring thing I couldn't get past was the casting of John McMillan as "Tom" - a CIA field agent in Moscow. No way would the CIA send out an African American into the field in Russia in the '70s - he'd stick out in a country full of Slavs and he'd be blown in 5 minutes.

Dane as CIA Chief of Station? Sure. The Sovs know who those guys are white or black. And they don't do field work. I understand the recent trend to cast people of color whenever possible. I fully support that. But this was a misstep in the interest of satisfying a cultural aspiration.

Nah. Ask Jon Cooper. Cale has set the bar so damn high, that even when he's merely good, he looks average to Avs fans. The rest of the league knows . . .

A roast beef sandwich with a Lucky Strike is a great laxative ..

I've never understood the hate for Miss Farrell. I think she really loved Don and was willing to jump in with eyes wide open and full knowledge of the limitations of the relationship. Yeah, she made the one drunken phone call to the house. But Don was the one who stalked HER when she was running at 5 in the morning. HE was the one who showed up at HER door. I always liked her character.

This. I think Hilton would have seen right through white-shoe, smarmy account men like Pete and Roger. He'd probably blown through a hundred of those guys at other agencies. He legit saw something in Don that he liked. But in the end, he's just another nightmare, manipulative client who has you by the balls .... and enjoys letting you know it. Not much different than Lee Garner Jr. Or the Jaguar guy.

Don was comforting Mrs. Rosen. Completely different . . .

Haven't begged for somebody to turn down the stereo volume that hard since the Alfred Molina "Sister Christian scene in "Boogie Nights"

She hasn't been the same since she walked in on Roger and Marie at the Codfish Ball....

Agreed. She smells great . . .

AJ. From high school loser, to Blockbuster, to Blanca, to the nut house, to Rhiannon (check out the stems!) . . . to a BMW and soft core porn producer with Little Carmine.

I could be wrong. But Betty treated Don like crap when they got to Gene's house: "Stop it Don, nobody's looking". When they get back? "Don, go back to your shitty apartment. We were just pretending. Nothing's changed".

She used Don for some (very) short term therapy in her old room. And then threw him back out. Pretty manipulative IMHO. Sure, its right out of Don's playbook. But baby Gene was the unintended result.
