live blogging: mad men season 5

i am finally sitting down to watch mad men.

episode 1:
why does sally keep giving those looks?what does THAT mean?lil gene is such a cutie.i like how they keep replacing the other boy. wtf?is january jones that evil?

i am cringing because i know megan draper will be singing "zou bisou" soon. ick.i cannot stand her.her face is so awkward & so not believable that of all the characters, don would marry her(i thought it would be joan if anyone).it was like megan was shoehorned in the last season at the last moment.i guess that's why everyone hates her so much.

what's up with the black gay dude? no black characters but they put HIM in?idk.


episode 2:
i am not a fan of joan's mom but joan needs to chillax. "i got my money's worth"?damn, that's cold. plus getting a little tired of the secret babies.sure, it happened a lot before the pill but i doubt it happened THAT much.i'm sure some unwed moms actually told the dads.

i dont know why they keep refusing to buy christina hendricks a 1950/60s bra.it's not that hard to find reproduction lingerie & her modern bras keep peeking out of her costumes. :-(

why do they keep talking about megan's "accent"? is she even supposed to have a french accent? i don't hear one.

is joan wearing padding?idk.she was never thin but her stomach looks huge.

i could have lived my whole life without seeing jessica pare in lingerie. for reals.i don't know what they pay her, but it's not enough.

yay! negroes!

episode 3:
yay! fat betty!

"play with pain"? that's a first. i don't like betty's new husband. he's got a shifty look all the time.

roger sterling's pop art office is amazing.

dawn is don's new black secretary.i'm sure they could've figured out a better name(& wig) for her than that.not latoya but susan would have been cute.

"it'll be easy for you.you're just one of those girls"?ummm,ok.

don + betty 4eva! megan never!
