An Unedited (Mostly) And Somewhat Offensive (Well, Very Offensive) Mad Men Recap: Season 1, Episode 1
Here at The ## we faced a choice. We could not let this monumental Sunday come and go without some sort of commentary, but what stone has been left unturned? Today, we find ourselves with a daunting amount of stellar analysis of last night’s episode of Mad Men, from our friend Natasha Vargas-Cooper’s typically awesome installment of The Footnotes of Man Men over at The Awl, to Slate’s roundtable discussion, to a group of profs and academes writing in their smart but staid Higher Ed style. SO, instead of giving you a well-formed reaction, which we could provide if we were wont to do so, we’ve posted the chat that the ## masthead engaged in immediately after the end of last night’s episode. It’s fast and messy and occasionally brilliant. Shit might get weird, but stay with us. And tune in next week: We’re live-tumbling the response! So after the episode, come straight to The ##. Enjoy!
