Chief Justice Roberts drops a bit of a hammer.
Now in episode 1 of Season 2 they seem to have forgotten all of the distracting plot twists and returned to form. Also the shots are even more beautiful.
Mad Men Season 1. The show is uniquely good at character, setting, vibe, and just actors delivering great dialog. The show is below average at plot. Halfway through Season 1 it appears they decided they needed a plot and the show suffered seriously as a result. 1/2

The grad is from China
Epstein and Summers referred to her by the codename "Peril"

Beautiful article on Ali Riley who has retired after an amazing career in soccer.
