Season 4 premiered tonight. I would have bumped the season three thread but I titled it "season 3," which no longer seems appropriate.

Who saw it? It was a stupendous hour of television. All sorts of shit has happened in the eleven months that have passed (in-story) between the formation of Sterling Cooper Draper Price and the beginning of season 4. The premeir was stepped in the juices of the sexual revolution. It also had a lot to say about the increasing role of the media in the success or failure of things. It was great to see Don fail a little bit, and it was exciting to consider the future implications at the end of Don crafting a public/media persona that is completely unlike his actual personality.

Agreed on all points.

Pretty good. Could have done without Doug Philips trying to shit in Roger's office. Although, it was slightly amusing.

yup, I just finished watching it and thought the same thing, for me that was best episode of the whole Mad Men series.

Orchiectomy -the word that its mere utterance threatens to self-fulfill.

"I'm glad this is an environment where you feel free to fail" Ouch!!

Anyone watching Peggy last night get an overwhelming urge for Swiss Cake Rolls?

Loved the handhold callback to the series premiere.

Yes, I'm that important.

Just watched "The Suitcase" and would definitely rank it up there with the top episodes for this show all time. Didn't want it to end.

I think my favorite exchange was: "Why is there a dog in the Parthenon?" "That's a roach, let's go some place darker."

Have you gone the whole series not knowing his name is Duck?

Probably. Sounds like Doug to me.

Those ducks on the wall of his office probably make more sense to you now.

Excellent episode.

Too bad I couldn't keep the interwebs from spoiling the plot.

Avoid reading about this week's White Collar if you haven't seen it yet.

Sick burn, bro.

Cite some obscure show no one watches that isn't even currently airing.

Kudos.
