MAD about Mad Men

[ArtMonkDrillz]

I wish I was smarter so I could come up with something better than "holy hell," but HOLY HELL!!! What an amazing episode!!!

SPOILERS BELOW!!!

There's been a cloud of death over this whole season, so I think this was the first time in a while that we, the audience, could sort of guess what was going to happen with a character, but that certainly didn't lessen the shock. The image of Lane just hanging there is going to stick with me for awhile (not to mention the truly horrible site from the museum).

Everything about his story line was so sad and pathetic, but I think it really fit with his character. When he broke his glasses, it reminded me of the 2nd or 3rd season when his English bosses came to NYC (I think it was the infamous John Deere episode) and he quickly took them off before meeting with the higher ups. I guess he always felt like having to wear them was a sign of weakness.
Then with the car not starting after all the jokes about them was brilliant!

I don't know where the show will go from here but obviously the impact of Lane's act and Peggy leaving the company will definitely have a profound impact on Don next season.

Such a good freaking show!!!
