History WMG / MadMen

* In one episode, he stated that he never wrote more than three consecutive paragraphs before in his life. On the other hand, that was when he was starting a journal, so maybe he could build from there.

[[WMG: The Draper kids will be {{SORAS}}ed if the series lasts past about 1967, possibly before.]]

[[WMG: Lindsey Pryce is related to [[{{Angel}} Wesley]] ]]

*** Events of the Civil Rights movement are seen on TV, and Paul Kinsey travels south with his African American girlfriend Sheila to take part in the marches. Nothing much about Pop Art, granted, but boss Bert Cooper owns a Rothko. Sally and Don go to a Beatles concert, and Don gets Sally a Beatles album for Christmas. The feminist movement came later.

* In one episode, he stated that he was a lousy student and never wrote more than three consecutive paragraphs before in his life. On the other hand, that was when he was starting a journal, so maybe he could build from there.

*** Word of God indicates otherwise, with Matthew Weiner and Jonathan Ingla being very clear about Megan's sincerity in the ***audio commentary for "Tomorrowland".

** This seems really close to happening as of episode seven of season 4.

** The basics of this may still happen, but as of the most recent episode Lucky Strike has dumped SCDP.

* "Megan" was a really rare name in 1940 (when she would have been born), even less so for a French-speaking household in Quebec. Either she changed her name when she came to New York, or she's Don's counterpart in more ways in one...

* Thus far, of course, we only have the evidence of "Six Months' Leave" and "The Suitcase," but it is kind of interesting that two episodes that deal with alcoholism also involve Samsonite in some major way. "Six Months' Leave" is kicked off by Freddy Rumsen passing out and pissing himself during a pitch to Samsonite, and "The Suitcase," which showcases the beginnings of Don's inevitable alcoholism (the puking should be a clue) and the depths of Duck's (every time he shows up), as well as mentioning how Freddy is now that he's joined AA (Roger isn't pleased).

** There's also the amount of turning points missed, such as the civil rights movement, the barely touched upon pop art during that era, the Beatles and Stoens, the radical feminists, and that they wrote out Sal mere four years before Stonewall. From this point of view, it rather seems that they are going out of their way ''not'' to touch upon the turning points.
