    My friend @yvonnebeasley has been disappointed in #MadMen Season 5 thus far. I’ve been bummed there’s not enough Joanie.

    A #MadMen episode that focuses on Lane feels like a #FamilyGuy that focuses on Meg.

    Are we looking at an embezzlement episode on #MadMen?

    Pete to Roger: Are you drunk?
    Roger: Pearl Harbor Day. Show some respect. #MadMen

    Of departed #MadMen characters, I would have preferred to see Sal, the old art director. http://is.gd/FKglKn

    Lane’s plan to embezzle money from Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce hits a snag. Pete whines about reaction to Jaguar account. #MadMen

    I know it’s history, but the hippie mumbo jumbo of the 1960s gives me a headache. #MadMen

    Joan: Mr. Sterling, since you’re dressed for fishing, you’d have better success if you were quiet. #MadMen

    So Roger DOES know the kid was his son. He’s even tried not to be a deadbeat dad, but Joan is not playing along. #MadMen

    That girl Paul Kinsey is canoodling looks like vaguely like Cobie Smulders. Maybe I’m just seeing her everywhere since #Avengers. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:18:10
  12. newsmanone
    Paul Kinsey is trending on Twitter. Long live #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:18:39

    Megan Draper could drag me to the theater, but I don’t think she can make me like it. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:19:17

    Megan to Don: Yep. Nope. That should have been our wedding vows. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:19:56
  15. newsmanone
    Don to Megan after the play: No one has made a stronger statement against advertising than you. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:21:27
  16. newsmanone
    Paul Kinsey is trying to pass a Star Trek to Gene Roddenberry through Harry. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:23:38
  17. newsmanone
    Random theory: Will Don quit advertising? #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:27:15
  18. newsmanone
    Is Lane going to doom the company by forging checks on a loan the company didn’t authorize? #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:24:08
  19. Stoned_Phillips
    It totally does. RT @newsmanone: Don spent 37 percent of his time on #MadMen napping. This is made up, but it feels about right.
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:27:54
  20. newsmanone
    Dear @amctv, stop shoving #ThePitch down our throats. It’s terrible. You know it. We know it. Just spike it.

    Joan Harris just got severed. Divorce papers. And she flipped out on the office assistant. With an airplane. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:32:27
  22. newsmanone
    Joan: It used to be when somebody want to see me in reception, it was because they were sending me flowers. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:35:28
  23. newsmanone
    Is, at last, the Don Draper-Joan Harris hookup? Probably not, but it’s fun to play act. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:34:15

    Joan: It used to be when somebody want to see me in reception, it was because they were sending me flowers. #MadMen

    Don to Joan: Congratulations. For getting to divorced. Nobody realizes how bad it has to get for it to get there. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:36:29
  26. newsmanone
    I am loving this scene between Joan and Don. Two old friends, stars of the show who are feeling their age. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:37:14
  27. newsmanone
    Uh-oh. Paul Kinsey’s girl is coming after Henry. Wait. Did I just type that somebody is coming after Henry? #MadMen lost sanity.
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:38:06
  28. newsmanone
    A woman just said, “I’m burning for you.” To Harry. And then demanded to be taken from behind. #MadMen is off the tracks.
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:38:53
  29. newsmanone
    Joan to Don in a fedora: You and me in Midtown. You with that look on your face? Oh, Joan. I love you. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:39:54
  30. newsmanone
    This scene between Joan and Don is the sexiest damned thing that’s been on #MadMen this year INCLUDING Zou Bisou Bisou.
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:40:57
  31. newsmanone
    Don to Joan: Poor me, I struck out.
    Joan: Whose gonna believe that?
    #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:41:58
  32. newsmanone
    Oh, Joan. You are such a lady. The Joan-Don scene was like watching an old movie with Bogie and Bacall. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:44:01
  33. newsmanone
    If this Harikrishna stuff with Harry and Paul’s girlfriend makes sense to anybody, send me a message. I don’t get it. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:49:36
  34. newsmanone
    Once again, Megan tells the truth. To Don, she says: You used to love your work … you’ve loved it before you ever met me. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:50:48
  35. newsmanone
    Roger delivers someone else’s flowers to Joan. He complains about the tip. Joan replies, “Do you want a tip, too.” Joan rules. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:53:16
  36. newsmanone
    I hate this Harry-Paul story as much as I loved the Joan-Don story. It’s the #MadMen ying-yang.
    Sun, May 20 2012 22:59:40
  37. newsmanone
    Oh my god. Don is having another Carousel moment RE: Jaguar. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 23:03:10
  38. newsmanone
    Megan is the perfect wife for Don. She jump-started his passion for life and his work. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 23:04:35
  39. newsmanone
    Senior and junior partners in a firm deferred their own bonuses to help the employees. Imagine that. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 23:05:25
  40. b_scheller
    @newsmanone Still, it’s a bit of a come and go for Don. Sort of lost it last season when he became a serious douche.
    Sun, May 20 2012 23:18:39
  41. newsmanone
    @b_scheller I think the real Don Draper just stood up. #MadMen
    Sun, May 20 2012 23:15:49
  42. b_scheller
    @newsmanone Don seems like a shell of a man one way or another.

    That’s it for this week, friends. No podcast this week, but we’ll chat #MadMen soon. From the capital city of Iowa, be kind and behave.

About Daniel P. Finney

A misanthrope, iconoclast and general grouch since the late 1980s, Daniel P. Finney has been a professional paragraph stacker since 1993. He reports. He writes. He blogs. He tweets. He beats deadlines. He amuses (himself, at least.) He informs. He adapts. He keeps moving forward. He eschews gatherings. The highlights of his week are Sunday chicken wings, new comics Wednesday and naps during televised sporting events. He does not wonder if there is a player to be named later in his life and spends most of his waking hours desperately trying to be left alone.

  1. Again, way better than the actual show. Who needs to watch the whole thing with you guys on board?

  2. Thank you, but your praise goes too far. The scene between Joan and Don is must-watch television.

Your takes.
