yeah...I don't get the Pete thing either...peggy has absolutely horrible taste in men


remember those shorts Pete had in Three Sundays too?! I mean, out of all the men in the office, this is the one Peggy gets stuck on...the scrawny kid in the tennis outfit

wait till season three, Keri! It's so gross! (peggy and her men, that is)

Oh gawd, I dodn't know whether to laugh or vomit when I saw the shorts...Babyface Campell. Ew.

I did like when Betty cheated on Don. I was like, Get it gurl!

Betty cheating on Don was both awesome and totally creepy. I love she goes home and munches on some chicken...such a weirdo

It was sort of creepy that she was doing everything freakin' possible to kill the baby though.

And the Don-sympathizer in me is a little sad that about her cheating--point of no return for the Draper marriage, you know? And him coming back all baptized and changed!

I hated Bobbie for dragging Don back to his cheating ways!

I couldn't stand Bobbie, period. She made me like Rachel!

And January Jones is cool and all, but she seriously couldn't act her way out of a paper bag in season two. How did she still get nominated for awards for it, and Christina Hendricks got nothing?

I almost wish she had died in that car accident!

But, retrospectively, Melinda McGraw was wonderful as Bobbie, even though I hated the character, she did a very good job.

But the Barretts sucked--I was so happy when Don punched Jimmy in the face!
The thing about January Jones for me was I constantly felt like shouting SHOW SOME EMOTION YOU FRIGID WOMAN!

and then I realized that was why January Jones was such a good Betty--she absolutely could not show a single emotion (her people being Nordic and all)

I still haven't decided if that makes her a good actress or a terrible one.

But Christina Hendricks totally deserved an award for S2! She was great in it!

But I also thought John Slattery should of got one for S1 (I think he was nominated for 6 months leave--but Long Weekend was better) and that didn't happen either...and Vinnie K, in any season!

I can't stand January Jones' acting...I want to slap her across the face to get her to emote. Did you see her on SNL? Talk about secondhand embarassment...

January Jones was really really truly horrible on SNL but so is everyone (except Jon Hamm, obviously). Though on SNL they really don't having anything to work with so I don't try to judge to harshly.

The jury's still out on what I think about her but I'm inching toward "no talent ditz" more and more. On the episode commentaries she's the least intelligent, least insightful, least funny thing I ever heard--it's almost embarrassing to sit through
