Benson showing his true colours

seriously? They've done that storyline already. Have things gotten so bad they need to do it all over again?

Kenny getting shot in the face took up about 20 seconds of the episode. It would have been great if he'd have been killed, which I was fully expecting.

Well, i don't think Benson's full intentions have been revealed yet. I find his character intriguing.

Has Don descended deeper into alcoholism? Wasn't there a number of episodes in a previous series where he was shown being a drunken mess most of the time? That's why the short guy got hired in the first place. He even had a lost weekend in one episode.

Pouring vodka into his orange juice first thing in the morning to even get going?

Pete's story feels the strongest at this stage.

I've a theory about Benson but its mostly speculation.

I like the way in general, they all have very fleeting emotions. Moves the plot along well.

That rifle keeps popping up and he never uses it. It's driving me mental.

I hope that it's not a bunch of lame forshadowing for the point where he eventualyl eats it.

Benson is the devil and Megan is Sharon Tate. It's obvious.

I thought they were going that way in season 5 as Pete kept getting more and more miserable but I'd be surprised if they had another suicide in it. I wonder whether Pete will murder someone, they keep dropping bits about murderers in the background (remember when Sally freaked out over the nurses being murdered) and this season has had a lot of talk of mothers dying; there's a chance he may end murdering his mother given how much she's winding him up at the moment...

Funny episode. Highlights were Kenny getting shot in the face, the return of Glen and Pete's "so what"

So what?

Megan's gonna be forked Sharon Tate style, I'm telling ya. Possibly by the son of the woman Don is banging.

In the Season 6 finale, Don has a problem.

At this point i've sorta accepted that its reached the point where they are going to keep making it till it stops making a pile of money. People have invested 40+ hours in these characters at this stage and will watch it to justify that.

Pete is more or less holding it together in terms of interest.

Still going to watch it anyways.

I'm pretty sure they already announced there's only going to be one more season? Or was it 2?.. Anyway, it's still very well-made TV with complex interesting characters and strong acting, even if they seem to be running out of new directions to take it in.

 

[Jill Hives]

No doubt I'll keept watching. Highlights.
Don: I didn't mean to engage you.
Dude: But you did cuz something is on your mind. You need to talk.
Don: I don't.

Ted: I love you that deeply. I can't be around you. I can't ruin all those lives.
Peggy: Get out, just get out!
Ted: Someday you'll be glad I made this decision.
Peggy: Aren't you lucky... to have decisions.
Note: She really should have kicked him in the shins. Hard.
Pete: She did love the sea.

One more season I believe. I thought that was great. I was on the edge of my seat when Don was telling his story to the Hershey men. I'm off to punch a minister in the face.

 

[David Kronenbourg]

Pete's facial expressions in the car were amazing

I feel better knowing that.
It was a really good episode.

Peggy in dons chair as a precursor to season 7.

As soon as Pete got in the car I was sure that scene was going to end up with a cut from burning wreckage to Smilin' Bob Benson concealing a pair of wire-cutters behind his back..
