But when will it be out on DVD??? Am all up to date but in Germany and can't understand the dubbed versions so am waiting on the DVD release. Let's hope not too long after it's aired?

No no - its Sunday???

catgirl1976 · 24/03/2012 19:46

AH Feck

Its Sunday in America isnt it? :(

madaboutmadmen · 24/03/2012 19:47

Depends if you're in the Us or UK, I'm in the Uk as are most of us on this thread i think. The link I've posted for Sky Atlantic says Tuesday

madaboutmadmen · 24/03/2012 19:48

Can any Americans not give the game away between Sunday and tuesday? Pretty please?Grin

catgirl1976 · 24/03/2012 19:48

It's facebook's fault :( It kept saying Sunday and it never occurred to me they were talking about the US

madaboutmadmen · 24/03/2012 21:00

Ha ha, oh well at least you won't be sat in front of the Tv tomorrow only to have your hopes dashed Wink

madaboutmadmen · 24/03/2012 21:04

Just got to the bit where Ida, Don's elderly secretary with cataracts, dies by her desk Grin. Doesn't sound funny but GrinGrin

Sorry Sunday in the us.....I will not say anything. Cracking open the whiskey and trying to think of a 60 s meal to cook up....any ideas??
Two hour special the first one I think.

Pitmountainpony · 25/03/2012 05:31

So little happens it is easy to not give the game away really....you need a whole season to do that really.

BrightnessFalls · 25/03/2012 18:00

Im very jealous of our friends in America tonight!! I hope I dont see anything about it until Tuesday. I actually tried to fool myself that I could record it and watch it at my leisure on my day off. As if! Smile

Okay as you watch it on Tuesday.......try and think of the most likely am I being unreasonable threads that the characters would have put on mums net had it been around in 1966......quite a few moments there are that the mother.....daughter.....worker in us can relate to.
Enjoy.

BrightnessFalls · 26/03/2012 15:56

No more hints, please. Ive been waiting 18 months!!

Pitmountainpony · 26/03/2012 16:26

Sorry brightness......I hope they are not hints...not meant to be.... more of a game to play as you watch- I just smiled at all those funny 60 s details ( little things said and done)that are always there in each episode that we find so shocking today- nothing plot related because of course we know the plot moves like a snail.

BrightnessFalls · 26/03/2012 18:24

No worries!!! Havent got long now. I will ask though, is it two hours straight through?

I have butterflies about it, how sad is that?? I feel like a child waiting for Christmas.

33goingon64 · 26/03/2012 21:56

Pitmountainpony, I am v envious of your evening with the cast of MM!! I am also v excited. We watched the box set in the months leading up to DS being born and then after a couple of weeks off we watched season 4. It was so nice to sit and do something normal, from our lives before being parents. Not much else would have kept me awake!

I can't wait to see if Don actually goes through with marrying Megan. I don't know why Betty is still in it, unless they get back together or something? I just love the way it shows how limited women's options were back then.

BrightnessFalls · 26/03/2012 21:59

Betty is the mother of his children, I imagine that has something to do with why she is still in it!! Smile

Yes two episodes back to back. Easy to make a cuppa and not miss any vital plot points though......
33 yes it was fascinating......hearing the cast talk. All were ....Very sweet and excited by the success of the show.....it must be fun if you are an actor to go to a theatre and have everyone clap you as tv is applause lacking.

Joan and Peggy were not there.they were all so lovely especially the little girl who was super bright but not precocious at all it seemed.....she said some very insightful stuff about her character...out of the mouths of babes and all that.
January jones was actually ...well she seemed.....very similar somehow to her character....a little prickly....she said people cross the road to avoid her in LA when she has her real life baby with her and give her not fit to be a mother looks.....I felt a bit sorry for her when she disclosed that to a theatre full of people. But every bit the cool Hitchcock 's choice blonde without trying she seemed. John Hamm..seemed.....lovely....a man of few words and seemingly modest. But what can you tell really from 2 hours of them chatting......I just know the show is great.

BrightnessFalls · 27/03/2012 15:25

I dont know what you can tell, I suspect they all have their guard up!! Smile Is she terribly thin in real life?

Im beside myself for tonight. I almost feel like getting my hair done for it!!

I'm so peeved that Sky have this now!

Where will we be able to download it from - itunes?

I'm totally in love with Don Draper - devine! Not to mention the whole glam style of it all.

Piggychunk · 27/03/2012 18:12

Just like to add............ I'M SOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!

BrightnessFalls · 27/03/2012 18:38

Oh. Are you getting ready for bed first?
