I love Peggy though.

I don't think there's a character on the show who can cast the first stone.

I've been so excited, but don't have cable.
I bought the season on iTunes, but don't know when the episodes will be available to watch (hopefully tomorrow).
I can't wait and will try not to ruin it for myself by reading all the recaps.
Eta: the notification just came in so I can watch it! [This message edited by Rainbows at 2:41 AM, April 14th (Monday)]

It nagged him, in particular, that none of the girls he’d known so far had given him a sense of unalloyed triumph.

It was nice to get an update on most of the characters, but the same old Don dysfunction is not even entertaining anymore.
And I had hoped they were going to write the Megan character out of the show. So many story lines could have been cultivated in the time they have wasted on that character and that relationship!

Ok, I tried keeping on with season six....woo boy, netflix quit just as Pete was having over his new neighbor as a 'guest' at his new pad, and I have never been more glad for a technical difficulty! 
Think it's going to be recaps for me....less difficult! I agree, I am just so sick of Don. And the whole infidelity culture. Someone call the wambulance for him. [This message edited by norabird at 11:33 PM, April 15th (Tuesday)]

Lydia I agree, I think too much of the show has been wasted on Megan. That character never really grows or changes, and has struggles that just aren't very interesting.

LADY V I have not seen you in ages! And your post made me LOL!
I kind of punked out for most of last season but I want to go catch up now because the premiere looked pretty good.

I don't watch Mad Men but when I saw Lady V popping in I had to check it out. You helped me a few times when I was first here and I appreciate it. Also, you made me laugh, liked that, even though half the time I didn't know WTF you were talking about (I would have to google and I've learned a lot!)

Aww, thank you. I'm glad I could help.
OMG I AM SO AFRAID STAN IS GETTING ENGAGED.
He's too happy in a not-high way. And he has plans. And that woman was in his bed last year when Peggy tried to get him to kill the rat. And there's something Ginsberg says Peggy is going to find out eventually. And I totally believe Stan can keep his personal and professional lives separate, and I don't think he and Peggy are as close as they used to be.
If he is maybe Peggy will finally be interested in him. Ugh.
