There's a great line in the Japanese film _Tampopo_ where the male lead talks about how he came from a bad home, and all his life he'd wanted to make a good home for a wife and family. He did all that, and "then I realized I didn't know how to live in a good home. So I left."

Mad Men is probably the best-written show I've seen. Unlike something like West Wing (which I also love) where all the characters kind of speak in the same voice, all the major characters are so distinct and yet they're all really complex and believable to the point where I felt invested in all of them, and so many of the lines have double meanings beyond just what's on the surface of them. Also something about the show when it's really firing on all cylinders (e.g. episodes like The Suitcase, Shut the Door Have a Seat, The Other Woman, Waterloo, I could name like 10 more) is just transcendently good

+GiantSandles I agree and The Suitcase is purely orchestrated brilliance. On the comedy side, for stellar writing, I am in stunned awe of the the unwavering show-after-show ingeniousness of Soap, Simpsons, Larry Sanders, Fernwood2Nite, SCTV and "Night Stand with Dick Dietrick." "Louie" may join that list too. (Yeah, all right, Seinfeld too.) And then there's Buffy. (It took a LOT for me - and, I later learned, millions of others - to watch a show titled as though it was about a sassy Valley Girl teenager, or inane teen vampire crap. That show was deeply brilliant - though who'da thunkit with its campy title.)

***** I'm not massively up on a lot of those shows but Simpsons is probably the most quotable show I've seen. Louie's also interesting because it's essentially him making short films every week (although he experimented a little with longer arcs in season 4), he doesn't even really worry about continuity most of the time. It's not always perfect but the fact that it essentially is just a collation of short films most of the time and the vast majority of them are excellent is really impressive. I think the original Office would have to be up there too

+GiantSandles Setting aside the more well known ones I mentioned - SCTV is comedy legend, try to pick up a taste of that. Type fernwood 2 night into the search bar and just click the playlist. Its first entry AMERICA 2 NIGHT FULL EPISODE 1978 KDFW-TV 4 DALLAS FERNWOOD 2 NIGHT should have you marveling at its twistedness fairly quickly. (The same show FERNWOOD 2 NIGHT was renamed AMERICA 2 NIGHT.). I mean seriously. A show with "Happy Kyne and His Mirthmakers." (Thankfully, like SCTV, the campy standby gags were not overplayed.) "Soap" takes a little while longer to get in the swing of, but I'd put it second place on an all time list. Behind The Simpsons - of course.

I admire the self confidence that Matt Weiner had, that he didn't feel the need to be "cute" and end the show on a convoluted paradox. Obviously it would be a tremendous temptation, considering Matt's connection to the Sopranos and its final scene. However, except for the one final unstated implication (that Don created the closing bit), more or less everything was wrapped up tidily and nonmysteriously with closure. Had the show been run by even enormously talented J.J.A. or David Lynch, they well might have taken the finale as an opportunity to cruelly jack with the viewers' heads. Instead Matt chose the higher Whedon-ish road. Kudos to AMC for allowing him so much freedom, all along, and of course for not making the frequently chosen deplorable (and offensive to viewers) move of cutting a series off cold turkey with NO plot closure. Networks: we keep score on those things, m'kay?!

I mean, I think there's a lot of ambiguity and room for interpretation when it comes to Mad Men's ending, even more so than The Sopranos for me. To me it feels pretty clear that Tony died, and there's only so much you can take away from that. Even if you don't interpret it that way, it feels like the core takeaway remains fairly similar. The ending of Mad Men on the other hand to me feels very open, with potential to be interpreted as hopeful, cynical or both. I do think it is an ending that challenges you, not unlike The Sopranos.

I understand that this is the evolution of writing. It is a collaborative literature and it is fantastic. What I found to be outstanding was the Lucky Strike pitch. The Kodak Caroselle nostalgia journey. And Don Draper going to the nuthouse get Peggy out of there. He was sharing his own life experience when he told her. "Get out of here. you will be amazed how quickly they will all forget.. Get out of here. Most people would give Peggy heart felt support but Don shares the in the most intimate way, truth as he knows it.

To be perfectly honest this show "Mad Men" showed the true depiction of what life was during the 50s. What it didn't show is some women didn't have a maid because they didn't always marry well. So they were stuck doing "everything" because that time men were not ready to help their mates around the house unless it was to throw away the garbage or cut the lawn - maybe? Most of it all was done by the wives which didn't give them time to relax as they so-called concepts that they had it made in the shade if they married?

I have yet to have seen so many wonderful characters that had flaws but still had some redeeming worth to their characters. That also includes the women that during that period had this fictitious concept if they marry they wouldn't have to work? Once you're married you still work - to provide a home and children. Plus children are a lot of work and involvements in church and school activities that belong to those parents - "it isn't a stay at home and do nothing type of event!" I don't know where women got that concept which crossed throughout various cultures but staying at home is not what women thought it would be. Plus there is more to being a "stay at home mom." In which I worked all the time prior to getting married which I enjoyed because I got paid. Staying at home you don't get paid but it is "assumed" you will maintain a home for the husband and the family." Imagine thinking you will be doing this 24/7 for so many years and not get appreciated and have no income or retirement? During my engagement I was concerned so I wasn't blind by that concept because dependency on others including a husband who you don't know may have a wondering eye and what happens if he leaves? You find yourself with no experience if you married early after high school or college and never went out into the world to earn a living. Did it make me ill - that 50s concept of getting married and winding up not working? That is all a false concept. No one stays home and does nothing - we make our lives better by doing all we can to provide for those we love.
@ScandinavianV

That concept that said that women had to stay at home with children wasn’t only believed by women themselves. Remember that men wanted to get home and see dinner on the table, the house clean, the kids with the homework done, and almost ready to sleep. That believe that you mention borns with the thought that women only can do two things: take care of the children and of the house. And it wasnt a party. It was a work!!! You should just see how unhappy betty was with don and how when she was with Henry needed to go out of the house and doing something for herself like studying. Also, when don goes on a trip to California he says he needs a woman because of the children. He never would have thought in a male friend of his to help him because that’s a “woman’s job” for him. And when he went to live alone, the same thing: he needed a girl to clean the house and make dinner. Sorry for my english je, I speak Spanish.

Lane was fired by Don and he should really have been up before the other directors. Much as I love Mad Men, Don's conversion to nirvana an hour after hitting rock bottom ...just doesn't hold water. Too much, too soon. Hugging Leonard did not work. No way.

The ending means that nirvana wasn't actually so. And hugging Leonard definitely worked--here was someone who could put into words the misery and loneliness that Don had carried his whole life but could never express. By this point he had already realised that most people who knew him only appreciated his charisma, his good looks and style etc, but he rarely felt that anyone knew anything about him on an emotional level. Leonard also talks about how maybe people are giving him love and he's simply unable to receive or recognise it. This clearly resonated with Don, who had sabotaged all the real relationships in his life in a reckless pursuit of what he imagined intimacy to be, all the while alienating those who truly loved him and never realising that. His final phone call with Peggy includes his reflection on his many failures in life, particularly his relationships. Don was at a loss for words after that phone call and didn't know how to react or pick himself back up--hearing a similar sentiment expressed by Leonard was something he needed to understand that he wasn't truly alone, despite the chaos of his personal life--a callback to something Anna Draper told him when she read his tarot cards.

I know it can be upsetting but it did work and very well, it was just so well written, you need to put yourself in his shoes and it works. And you missed the fact that the last part of the show tells you that there's no conversion to nirvana at all.

There’s zero evidence to suggest your timeline is correct. Don has transformed physically from looking like shit to looking cleansed. That didn’t happen in an hour. For all we know the timeline could have been a month or longer. Prior to hugging Leonard, Don had just said to Peggy ‘I can’t get out of here’. All clues point towards Don having an extended stay before the final scene.

@@cjeff3549 honestly, I bet there’s a good chance Don went back to New York, and then back to Big Sur on retreat(s). Or he stayed in Big Sur for a few weeks/months. It’s the first we see him connect with nature without polluting, so ironically, he connects more to the earth while putting together super ads for Coca Cola and other ultra polluters. But it’s the billboard message changed - you are ok, you are not alone/you have purpose. I can also see a gradual progression into Buddhism for Don, he’s been on an enlightenment path, and after getting locked up by decking that ass preacher, the lies of Christianity are easier to dismiss.

Weiner, we know we didn’t invent drugs or sex. Others have slapped those labels on us. It was our older sibs and parents who did; and they played Pied Piper so we and our families did. The Beatles? Not Boomers. But we sure bought what they sold us kids. And Weiner, your 60s aren’t that authentic. Like Mrs. Maisel, 50s and 60s style, but not quite there. Weiner doesn’t really remember it, he wasn’t born yet (or old enough to remember).
