-That government/campaign guy REALLLY regretted his decision to marry Betty.


so what were the mores of the time on being divorced twice, back in the day? Would she and he be too shamed to do it again? once was controversial enough, if my mom's telling of history is correct

I was re-watching seasons 1 and 2 recently and I freeze framed a scene where Don's paycheck is visible. By Oct 11th, 1962, Don Draper had earned $48,400. Convert the value from 1962 to 2011 dollars (Wolfram Alpha is great) and it's $351,000. His net weekly paycheck was $947.75, or $6924.84 in 2011. He got $500,000 when Sterling-Cooper sold to the Brits - $3,653,000.

Pete, at $75 a week in 1960 is equivalent to a $30K a year salary today.

Season 5 is set to air early next year. They have already been in production. I quite enjoyed season 4 of the show. :slayer:


Yes, I thought it was much better than Season 3.

She never made regular appearances on the show so wouldn't expect it for season 5.
