Episode 75 - Steve and Dave Flood You With Analysis

This is the first excellent episode of the season I think.  Steve Agrees.

This show does a really nice job when the integrate historical stuff, in this case MLK's assassination, into the plot.

Planet of the Apes is a great movie.

Bobby is actually pretty sympathetic here.  He seems to have grown some, finally.

Ginzo's Dad sets him up on a date!

The gang being at the Ad Club of New York's awards dinner is a nice touch.  Paul Newman did host that night, and he did make the statement you see in the episode.

Mayor Lindsay was a pretty decent guy.

Henry's taking a right shift.

Randall Walsh is classic.

Peggy is an ally of sorts.  Joan, well, I'm not as sure, I think she means well.

Episode 73 - Dave and Steve Collaborate to Bring You This Podcast

Steve is not a fan of this one.

Frankly, he's right, this one is pretty stagnant, though I like seeing Arnie on screen.

This episode is framed by the USS Pueblo incident and the Test Offensive.

Megan has some news.

Sylvia has some Catholic guilt.

There are flashbacks.

There is paying for it.

There is sledgehammer symbolism.

This one has Don putting Herb in his place a bit, so there's that.

Episode 72 - Dave and Steve Remain Behind the Doorway

 

On to season premiere part 2.

Don pukes at Roger's Mom's funeral.

If Roger's life had any meaning, it doesn't any more.

Megan is going weekly on her soap.

I want to go to a New Year Party at the Drapers'.

I feel really bad for Arnie.

So Don''s doing this again is he?

One thing Don might try, and I know this is a crazy idea, is not having affairs with everyone he meets.
