(xpost) The whole agency knows that Pete's bringing in more business than Roger, so it's not in Roger's interest to force a power play against Pete that would make the rest of the partners choose sides.
― I DIED, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 18:33 (twelve years ago) link
I read it as Pete had agreed to hand the account over just to be nice, throw Roger bone after he's not done much of anything for years, so then the about-turn is publicly completely legit but yet embarrassing to Roger in a way he can't really act on.

the shot of her getting out of the bathtub really felt like they were being all, 'see? she's ACTUALLY fat'
― A Little Princess btw (s1ocki), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:13 (twelve years ago) link
It was so clearly shot with a double, though.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:14 (twelve years ago) link
That part was so obvious and fake that I wonder why they bothered with it.
― Respectfully, Tyrese Gibson (Nicole), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:16 (twelve years ago) link
it was really weird because it wasn't like they were showing her hubby her body, it was clearly meant for us the viewers

Waiting for her to have a baby in episode 13 now.

writers seem to enjoy placing Betty opposite wiser, more confident, and more thoroughly emotionally restrained women (Sally's psychologist, Henry's mother). They address hard truths matter-of-factly in soft voices and she does her ice-queen-in-the-headlights routine.
― You big bully, why are you hitting that little bully? (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 20:57 (twelve years ago) link
I don't necessarily think that Henry's mother is being presented as wiser.
― Respectfully, Tyrese Gibson (Nicole), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 21:01 (twelve years ago) link
Certainly fatter.

yeah dunno if that's the right word. more mature? more in control?

more worldly and clued in to the way of this man's world methinkssame thing joan's mother was doing; this is all setting us up for generation gap freak out as we hit the summer of '69 methinks

Joan's mother was a PIA!
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 21:18 (twelve years ago) link
jealous and manipulative in both cases with these old mothers
Definitely some crazy generational strife with the old guard acting like their daughters were being rebellious when they're just living with a new set of rules
― mh, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 21:19 (twelve years ago) link
I think Henry's mother borders on a mother in law joke - she's controlling and cold, and Betty is never going to be good enough for her.
― Respectfully, Tyrese Gibson (Nicole), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 21:41 (twelve years ago) link
She really does.
