I’m on season 1, disc 4 of Mad Men, the Nixon v. Kennedy episode. For reasons that I don’t have to go into, I don’t rememeber, but believe, Draper’s brother might have comittted suicide. Is this so? Please, a yes or no answer only.
Yes.
Thank you. I’ve just started watching. There have probably been many Cafe Society discussions of this show, and I have hesitated to start a new one. But I’ve wanted to say something about what’s in the spoiler box above, and I might as well do it here. The interaction of the person in the spoiler box with Don Draper has to be one of the most heartbreaking, albeit brief, things that I’ve seen on TV in a long while. Here I was, thinking Mad Men would just be an amusing romp, and then they have to go and get all serious on us. The mystery man referenced gave such a touching performance, that he had this cynical idiot in tears.
Are the next seaons going to be like this. Are they worth watching?
Yes.
