Review

the slog continues through season three, but, wait, there’s a glimmer of story and intrigue. things with betty and don draper start to really change. the firm being purchased and flipped turns into a takeover opportunity for the core cast and provides for easily the best episode of the series (the season three finale). meanwhile, decent tertiary characters are left on the outside so we can continue to only learn about the awful main and secondary characters. at least they’re finally interesting. don continues to float along like a leaf in the wind. he’s essentially a lower without self-reflection; and a liar to boot so he’s worthless all around.
