I could see him being as selfish as Betty and only caring about her and neglecting them. If so, and they run to Don for affection, would make a good subplot to season 4.

A custody battle? I hope not. That would be some boring television.

i have a feeling that this is the plot device they chose to get the show out of the house and back into the office. i think (hope) betty/the kids will just be a minor plot point from here out. they have a lot of potential to start kicking ass again with the formation of the new firm.

As far as the overall arc of the show goes, I see Betty/Don being very much like Rachel/Ross. Together in the end.

If Don took her back, I could only respect it if he brought great ruin to Henry.

There is almost no way that they'll get back together. Don Draper will clearly be on his third wife by the time he drops dead circa 1985.

The future of the new firm is far more interesting to me. It seems plausible that Don is no longer that great. Remember when he wasn't into the VW ads? Time might be about to pass him by. The show would be a disaster if they are immediately a huge, smashing success by the beginning of season 4.

Instead of outright adornment, let the construction, cut and materials do the talking.

You mean Draper will no longer be a "creative genius"? Should I still watch the show then?

I have never watched Six Feet Under but I hope that doesn't mean they fast forward into the ultra wide lapels of the 1970s.

I think the show has two more seasons in it. Hopefully Weiner and AMC will be wise and let it go after that.
