That could be her in three years, so the smugness about Kinsey's downfall was nagl I thought.

I just realized - he was the best Krishna recruiter ever because of his advertizing background!

What was it Peggy said? "If it doesn't come easy for him, then he shouldn't bother"? I thought that said a lot about her own attitude about work and her career.

well the implication was if a script that bad didn't come easy then maybe he should try something else

aside from the really charming joan and don love-in i found p. much everything else in this episode unconvincing. esp the hare krishna thing.
― jed_, Tuesday, 22 May 2012 23:18 (eleven years ago) link
what does that mean 'unconvincing'

i find that unconvincing
― Mordy, Wednesday, 23 May 2012 20:15 (eleven years ago) link
The Hare Krishna storyline seemed a bit sloppy. Liked seeing Kinsey but...meh. I could see how he would be the type to go exploring cults and how subcultures appeal to that character but the show seems to try and incorporate too much pop culture at once this season. Or was I just annoyed with this episode.
― *tera, Wednesday, 23 May 2012 20:18 (eleven years ago) link
given that the mid-60s was when pop culture REALLY went into overdrive, this seems entirely appropriate
― Roger Barfing (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 23 May 2012 20:20 (eleven years ago) link
They could've just found Kinsey in some storefront "cool" xtian church, but then we wouldn't have had the pleasure of his Krishna haircut.

the theater and post-play argument between Don & Megan was awesome
― sarahell, Wednesday, 23 May 2012 20:22 (eleven years ago) link
I guess my main question coming out of the episode was whether Don is throwing himself back into his work for good reasons (he really has been slacking, needs to focus) or bad reasons (Megan is too hard for him to deal with so he's gonna live at the office for six weeks). The fact that Megan was pushing him to try harder at work makes it a complicated question.

i think the joan dinner reminded him that there's more to live for than megan

hare krishnas was sort of dumb, but not out of character for this show to do something for the lols. it doesn't take itself very seriously at all, least of all this season. it is 100% soap opera now.
