You know I have to hand it to Jon Hamm, because despite being extremely attractive to the point of distraction, he still manages to make me hate his (character's) breathing guts this episode. He deserves to have a shitty Christmas, quite frankly. Way to make your poor secretary feel like a whore, Don. But for once can SOMEONE, ANYONE, please turn Don down when he propositions them? I mean, for heaven's sake!
Chekhov's gun, Mad Men-style: Introduce a fairly attractive female guest star in the second episode of the season and Don will have slept with her by the end of the season. We're looking at you, blonde doctor and brunette nurse neighbor. Place your bets.
Speaking of blonde doctor, anyone else mighty intrigued by her assertion that Don will be married again within a year? I wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be true. I'd love to know what she "typed" him as...
Oh, Peggy. Your taste in hairstyles has improved dramatically this season, yet your taste in men remains dismally disappointing. I knew it wouldn't be a good sign when the "previously on" teaser chose to remind us all of your liaison with Duck Phillips.
GTFO, Lee Garner, Jr. (although making Roger dress up as Santa may have been worth it for the shot of Harry sitting on his lap. And many a gif was made!)
I have no thoughts on Glenn because he is creepy as shit and I don't even know where the writers are going with this and I'm afraid to speculate. But RUN, SALLY, RUN! It's a good thing Don is making lots of money because this is probably all going towards Sally's future therapy bills, assuming she makes it to adulthood in one piece.
Okay I realize most of this episode Don is fairly despicable but did anyone else think him calling Peggy 'sweetheart' was like the cutest thing ever? It was, come on, admit it! (P.S. Writers, don't ever make these two hook up, pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease. It's Don's one functional relationship. Okay, yes, it's based on a mutual understanding of harboring deep secrets, but functional nonetheless!)
Betty had like two lines this episode. I'm not complaining.
