5 Mad Men: Should Sally Draper Live With Don?
It seems like Don Draper has been with them all: from the innocent, angelic blondes to the fiery, passionate brunettes. While he might not have a type, we've certainly seen some themes of attraction. We've been waiting impatiently to find out what Mad Men season 5 will bring for Don and his engagement to Megan. Perhaps his bad boy days are over, but we aren't placing any bets! In the meantime, Read more
It was layoff mania on last night's Mad Men. Don Draper's advertising agency had to start downsizing to stay afloat, and plenty of people feared losing their jobs. To top it all off, because of Don's latest publicity stunt (a write-up in The New York Times in which he claims to refuse to work with tobacco companies because of moral reasons), Don is no longer a client of Faye's. That's because Read more
Should daddy's girl have gotten her way? In last night's episode of Mad Men, the tension between Sally and Betty mounts and the child boards a train destined for Don. While the ad man indulges his daughter to a point, he turns her down when she asks to live with him — even when she pleads. What is your opinion?

Does the father of a woman's children always tug on her heartstrings? In last night's episode of Mad Men, Betty gets jealous when she runs into Don and his date. While the mother of three is remarried and has primary custody of the kids, her feelings for her ex are still apparent. Is it impossible for a mom to completely get over the person with whom she procreated? Photo courtesy of AMC Read more
It was a call of shame rather than a walk for Don Draper in last night's episode of Mad Men. After a long (and hard to recall) celebratory evening for winning an advertising award, Don is snapped out of his slumber when Betty phones him to ask why he hasn't yet picked up their children. The hungover father of three fakes sick and spends the day dazed and confused on his sofa instead of with his Read more
Divorce continues to divide the Draper family in last night's episode of Mad Men, but both parents have moved on. Don distracts himself with work and a steady flow of women while Betty looks to Henry for support. Despite the adults' ability to move on, it's much more difficult for their kids. In a sweet letter to her father (on her brothers' behalf), Sally tells Don what she wants most for Read more
Divorce divides the Draper family as season four of Mad Men premiered last night. While Don puts long hours in the office and lives in the city, Betty continues to reside in the former couple's suburban home with their three children — Sally, Bobby, and Gene — and her new husband, Henry. Though the young mother's primary concern seems to be her marriage, and Betty has questionable (at best) Read more

Mad Men's Don Draper spends a lot of time not talking, which does the rare double duty of adding to his appeal while reducing him to a total ass. But when he does talk, his words are elegant, philosophical, and — if you think about — really great advice! Even so, when they're all put together in this montage above, Don sounds more like a Read more
I've showed you how I'd wire Bruno and Weeds' Nancy Botwin, but now I'm going to take it back old school — real old school — and hook you up with my tech picks for Mad Men's dashing yet complicated hero, Don Draper.
