Mad Men: A Kiss Goodbye

Brian Moylan · 10/04/10 01:08PM

"Every time something good happens, something bad happens," could sum up the action of every Mad Men episode, but what happens when you can't tell the good from the bad or the personal from the professional? Total chaos ensues.

Mad Men: This Has Nothing to do with Work

Matt Toder · 10/04/10 10:25AM

Mad Men: The Authorities Come Calling

Matt Toder · 09/27/10 12:30AM

Mad Men: Death and the Maiden

Brian Moylan · 09/20/10 12:34PM

Brian Moylan · 09/13/10 02:40PM

As so often happens on Mad Men, last night was all about the ladies. Well, it was all about Don's relation to the ladies. And then there was that funky new narrative voice-over device.

Mad Men: Fables and Threats

Matt Toder · 09/13/10 12:19AM

Brian Moylan · 09/07/10 12:30PM

Of all the relationships on Mad Men, Don and Peggy's has always been one of the most complex and compelling. On Sunday night, it got even deeper and served as a catalyst for their own personal development.

Mad Men: Let's Go Some Place Darker

Matt Toder · 09/06/10 09:34PM

Last night's episode of Mad Men was dense, contentious and extremely focused, it was unexpected and captivating. Instead of filling time with subplots, the episode was all Don and Peggy. And maybe it was one of their best.
