Talk Forum and Comments - What You're Saying

Mug.jpg

AMCtv.com awards Talk forum and blog commenters quoted in our weekly "What You're Saying" post with prizes like a Mad Men pen or a Mad Men poster (limit one per person).

The AMC interview with Melinda McGraw (Bobbie Barrett) and was the topic on Maddicts' minds this week.

• "As with all the actors and actresses on the show... a very fine job. Mad Men gives my wife and me something to share during 'our time' when the kids are asleep." --Herrit

• "I admire Melinda's ability to be a 'bee with an itch' in one scene and in the next is almost motherly or big sisterly to Peggy. I, too, hope to see her in Season Three." --rozsie

Log onto the Talk forum to join in the conversation or start a Mad Men topic of your own. As always, your comments throughout the blog are also welcome.

Betty, Don's wife, I found her to be an interesting character. In my perpective, she appears to be depressed, and feeling anxious. There are two episodes that show her hands are shaking, and trembling.
She's a homemaker, and has lost her identity. In addition, she senses that her husband Don, is not being faithful. She has total responsibility of the two children; it can be very emotionally draining raising kids. Don is hardly home, and is not emotionally fulfilling her.
I'm wondering what will happen in Season three with this couple!

I am quite sure my wife will snatch my prize away. But, that's just another way to share the experience with her. Thanks again for the excellent content!
