Mad Men: The Night Don Fessed Up

What’s in a name? Well, we certainly found out—whether it was Don Draper or dog food—that names really matter, especially for Betty, who finally got the truth and some emotion out of her husband. Wow, what a night! The tension between Don and Betty when he finally let her know all about her past couldn’t have been more taut if there was another woman hiding in his car in the driveway

Did David Letterman Try to Warn His Blackmailer?

The night before Joe Halderman was busted in a sting operation for trying to extort David Letterman out of $2 million, the Late Show aired a parody of a Geico ad that seems, in retrospect, rather prescient.

Mad Men: The Night Sal Could Have Gotten Laid

Thanks to Conrad Hilton, everyone was taken over by the spirit of colonization, both personal and professional, literal and figurative. Oh, Don is back to his old tricks with a crazy lady, and Sal turned down some hot action. The center of last night’s action was the powerful taking over the weak and trying to use them for their own selfish ends

Mad Men: The Night of a Million Kisses

Our favorite retro drama may not have made it to the Summer of Love yet, but it’s preparing with the Summer of First Base with this veritable snogapalooza. Pucker up, because August has everyone randy in 1963. It’s a little cruel to be showing episodes about the dead heat of summer just as the weather has taken turned as cold as Betty Draper dealing with one of her children, but she and everyone else was melting in the sweltering heat

In Praise of Television’s Bad Mothers

While we weren’t loving last night’s uneven season finale of Weeds , we were loving Nancy Botwin’s parenting skills—or lack thereof. Who wants to be raised by a boring stroller-pusher when you can have someone to bring the crazy? Bad mothers are like unhappy families, no two are alike, but they are all a whole lot of fun to watch
