    Unhappy Im obsessed with Mad Men but lost...help?

    So my L4P fam, you were right...Mad Men is an awesome show. It is the advertising version of what I deal with on a daily basis at my interactive agency.

    Anyways...I am on Season 2 at about episode 5 as I write this, but I am quite confused. Peggy (red headed assistant to Draper, now a copy writer) had a baby in the first season. Where I am at she just bailed Don out of trouble when he got in a car crash but it is now going back and forth between her in the hospital with some type of mental issue? I am very confused.

    Help? Am I missing something? What is going on with these jumps? Flash backs?

    yes they are flash backs from when she had the baby at the hospital. She got sick, but Don came by to help her. Thats why she is now helping Don with the car crash and the chick he was with. She feels she owes him. They have random flash back of him in the war aswell. It gets a little confusing if your not really paying attention. Just keep watching, it all kind of comes together

    I just re-watched this episode today. They are flashbacks. She feels like she owes Don because he has helped her considerably with her job and her child.

    And why he helped her initially ties onto the fact that he had a drunk father and no real mother. Hoping for a better future.

    IT'S BACK!! Anyone else catch the season 5 premier? I need to brush up, it's been so long since season 4, I found myself confused a few times throughout the episode. But, still pumped my favorite show on TV is finally back.

    Alright all this talk of Madmen everywhere has peaked my curiosity. I'm going to try and watch at least the pilot episode this week. Right after I re-watch the last half of Shameless.
    I don't know which is better getting paid or getting laid, all I know is while I'm doing one the others getting away.
