09.22.09 THIS IS WHY YOU WATCH ‘MAD MEN’

Hell yes. I’ve been waiting for this animated .gif file to materialize online since the moment I watched the most memorable scene from Sunday night’s “Mad Men.”

If you happened to miss the episode, (a) shame on you, and (b) you may want to stop reading now, as I’m about to discuss details. Or rather: detail, singular. That detail being HOLY CRAP THAT BRITISH DUDE GOT HIS FOOT SHREDDED BY A LAWNMOWER. Just when it looked like the show was about to take a compelling new turn with another personnel shake-up at Sterling Cooper, Matthew Weiner hit the brakes and did a skidding 180 by spewing blood and bone matter on employees’ faces. It was shocking, gruesome, and positively hilarious.

Note to every show on TV: sudden, violent amputation is always a nice plot twist. I really hope Pete Campbell lands a wood chipper account.

That dickbag with the beard could use an amputation. Paul something, right? He sucks.

My only regret is that Joan’s dress went relatively un-sullied.

Also, how cool was it to meet Conrad Hilton, knowing full well that his great grand-whore would one day permanently tarnish America’s good name?

I just went out and bought a John Deere 110 riding mower, and I don’t even have a lawn.

Enrico, that’s Paul Kinsey. Princeton ‘55.

I didn’t make the .gif but I grabbed the still before anyone else. http://wp.me/ pCufw-4a (kudos to whoever grabbed the HD version above) Anyone notice how Matt Weiner is on a campaign to bring more and more Sopranos into Mad Men? Dream sequences (bad), unintelligible preview montages (bad) and awesome carnage shockers (good!). Best show on TV, maybe ever.

“just when he got his foot in the door”. BRILLIANT. NOT like the Sopranos ’cause no tits. At least side-boob here and there.

But where is the .gif of Joan’s well-lit walk across the living room? That was the first time where I actually felt uncomfortable watching a fully clothed woman on teevee with other people in the room.

A gif that makes no sense! Dude count me in, I love gifs that make no sense. Mad Men drinking at work and having pointless gifs for the win!

Dan, My sentiments exactly on The Sopranos comparison. I made an observation saying Mad Men is just like The Sopranos if it took place in the ’60s and no one killed anyone (Betty’s dad notwithstanding).
But in this case, we get such a lovely amputation. Awesome!

Thank you Ufford, for posting this. You are a god amongst men. I love the splotch that hits the girl right in the forehead.

Anyone see Oprah yesterday? It was 60’s themed and they had the cast of Mad Men on it.

I was flipping the channels and it was on. Dont you judge me! Dont you dare judge me.

Strange Botwin says:

Yeah CrabApple, we all saw Oprah. Don and Betty Draper were on for God’s sake, how could we miss it? Note to self: Become Oprah’s friend, tell her about my favorite show so she will do a show about it, then make the people of my favorite show let me on the set of said show, where I can interact with everyone on the show while they are IN CHARACTER. Fucking Gayle.
