Mad, mad, Mad Men conspiracies
By Maybe I’m just up far too early for human thinking to be in work, but I stumbled across this article and I can’t say I don’t find it compelling. Megan Draper’s playing an actress who’s now gone blonde — at least for one of her roles — and Sally Draper was reading Rosemary’s Baby and Charles Manson Bob Benson keeps showing up in inappropriate places. I fully believe this season’s headed for some horrible end.
Of course, every season’s been headed for some horrible end only to have it narrowly averted by characters hewing to convention. (For example, taking your young, attractive babysitter with you on vacation violates all sorts of decorum that marrying her afterwards retroactively assuages.) Point being, since I can’t comfortably dissect Mad Men visually at the moment, I thought I’d at least provide a venue for people to speculate wildly about how the season’s going to end.
