*freaks out* OMG the Mad Men preview!!! OMGOMGOMG.
Okay for some background, a previous post that I never finished:
Attention Mad Men fans of which there should be many more: can you name my favorite scene of the whole series? The one that I've now seen at least twenty times? If you know me, you'll know what it is. Anyways, I finished it, I love it and for a brief time, I was a bit obsessed with it (as in didn't want to do anything else but watch it or read about it). The thing about being obsessed is I love it, the feeling of falling and wanting more and more and never getting enough is wonderfully addicting but...at the same time it freaks me out and I'm kind of happy when it goes away. There is a depressing lack of fanfic though. This is why I am always appreciative of fanfic even if I don't always read a lot of it, when you *need* it, you WANT it to be there. Thank god for Yuletide. Anyways it was FANTASTIC, brilliant and only got better. I definitely should have watched this a year ago so when I saw Matthew Weiner a billion times during the strike, I could have told him how much I love it.
Anyways, spoilers, ( Spoilers for Season One of Mad Men revealing my favorite scene )
And then there's tonight's preview:
( Preview spoilers for Mad Men 203 )
Honestly I can't understand how this show is addicting me so much. I bought the DVDs the other day because I just *had* to have them so I could rewatch as much as I liked plus see the commentary. The DVD box set is one of the most beautiful I've seen, everything about it is so shiny and pretty. I love the extras especially Establishing Mad Men which is almost worth the cost alone. So cool to hear all about how the show came to be and to see all the writers talking about it. I'm enjoying the second season a lot so far and am especially impressed with Betty who seems to be reminding me of Pam from The Office and her journey as Peggy did last season. And I loved the scene with Don, Peggy and Sal who are probably my three favorite characters right now. I think part of the reason I like Don so much is his integrity which he keeps so well unlike certain other characters (*hates Pete*) even if it falls more in his home life.
I can't help but be reminded of Brian Kinney on this show. It's so interesting to see the straight, old-fashioned ad world when I'm used to Brian's sex sells (which DID get said haha), reach the gay market philosophy. I SO wish there was a fic crossover between them, it'd be so great.
Is it next Sunday yet? Oh and would anyone be interested in watching the episode at Vividcon on Sunday? I can't believe it's becoming one of the shows I have to see live. *loves show* |
