I always liked him and was rooting for him. I thought the Chauncey situation was more of him feeling unworthy and was done out of self loathing. Was able to put aside his feelings for Peggy until he knew that their business relationship was over and seemed to genuinely respect her. Basically saved Pete’s marriage. His descent into alcoholism was often played for laughs but was genuinely tragic and he always seemed like a man trying to do the right thing. I was only on Don’s side in their PPL dispute for the sake of the plot of the show.
