Jane Sterling vs. Megan Calvet (soon to be Draper)
So there was a post comparing Jane to Joan. Apart from the fact that their name starts with J, the both love / (d) Roger, and they were secretaries there really is nothing else that they have in common. Besides its not a relevant comparison. IMHO the real contest is Megan vs. Jane as they started as lowly secretaries and elbowed their way to that coveted MRS. Degree. Both are college grads, young, brunette and thin. And evoke feelings of anger (yes but its controlled anger) from the other women in the office (Joan and Peggy). We have seen Joan and Jane confrontations. The big question is for season 5 is Megan going to be a liability for Don (someone who causes problems for him in the workplace and comes between him and his children). I don't buy into the Mary Poppins/Maria Von Trapp image that she portrayed (Megan for Don is a bit of an ink blot - he sees what he wants). I do see her becoming a wedge between Don and Peggy (accusing him as others have of having an affair with Peggy). while Megan saved Don from a life of self destruction Don is no an ordinary Divorced Dad, needing a "home cooked meal and a clean house" this man has baggage that would take more than 1000 Public Storage units to fill.
