I always wanted to watch this show but i never got around to it. Is it the kind of show you can start watching halfway through the season? 8/

Oh hellz no.
It's like a serialised drama - kind of a really, really kick-ass soap opera of sorts. Most of the episodes have their own self-contained stories but there's always a larger picture behind it, for instance when some characters get married or have affairs etc. etc. Would be really hard to keep up if you just jumped in randomly.
Haaaving said that I'm now in the process of slowly plowing through the first season. 8D

wow that is so hardcore. and it's totally the truth.
I loved the be silent and be vague and open ended about your past parts because they're so eerily true to the show :V
that man has a lot of affairs, doesn't he. I feel very sorry for Betty. :I

Quite welcome. You should check out Jon Hamm's other skits from that episode, especially Campaign Ads. It's not Mad Men related, but it's hilarious.

I don't know, it's like I'm a Jon Hamm magnet. In fact, i caught him on 30 Rock last night. YOU SEE.

NO I ONLY SAW THE ORIGINAL and he probably wasn't even alive when that was made.
Maybe he has a really small, blink-and-you'll-miss-it role?

Nah, I don't think so; he was billed up pretty high in the cast listing.
...though if it's one thing I've learned in my years of moviegoing, it's that positions on the marquee aren't necessarily correlated with screen time.
