Betty Draper Now Officially Worst Mom in TV History

Who is Dr. Lyle Evans? (Uh… Is there any connection to how Sally is acting out and how Roger is acting out. Sally wants to make a statement about the divorce, and if Pete is right about Roger, Roger wants to make a statement about not being the top dog at SCDP.
“Mad Men” Episode 5, The Chrysanthemum and the Sword: It’s official. Betty Draper, now Betty Francis, is the worst mother in TV history. I give January Jones credit: her scene in the psychiatrist’s office was splendidly full of tics. At Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce, Roger Sterling continues to show his sensitivity. Last season he performed in blackface. This week he attacked Japanese executives from Honda.Roger invoked the name “Dr. Lyle Evans,” which has sent millions of people to Google and other resources to get the reference. Funny.
Malcolm X was killed in February.
“The Chrysanthemum” is the first episode this season not written by Matthew Weiner. It’s credited to a woman, Erin Murphy. I loved Peggy’s sort of cameo riding the Honda around and around.
Cartheiser will get himself an Emmy nomination for next season. For this one, let’s hope Jon Hamm, John Slattery, and Christina Hendricks get their statues.
