Weiner's end-game for his leading man does not appear to be brightly lit. Nor is Season 6 of Mad Men off to a particularly sparkling start creatively while we wait for the worst to come.April 09, 2013
There is much deathly foreboding and foreshadowing in play (as always...), but also smaller elements of rebirth and renewal.June 26, 2013

If all this sounds heavy and ponderous, then the fault is mine alone, because Mad Men is also about pleasure -- primarily for those viewers who have invested so much in these rich characters over the past five seasons.April 04, 2013
The series always proves energetic when depicting Don's trippy business trips.
