Let's talk... Betty + Joan
No! Not “like that”… *wink*
This almost piggybacks on the Don/Joan relationship… but I am always intrigued by the dynamic between Joan and Betty.
They don’t have a lot of interaction on the show, but when they do, it’s comfortable… almost friendly (at least, from my perspective).
The picture above is from Season 3/Ep. 2, when Betty is pregnant and...
Anonymous asked: Draper Daniels married his secretary, which is what Don is doing with Megan apparently. They can still base Don on him without it necessarily being Peggy he marries.

Anonymous asked: Don has never shown any romantic interest in Joan and Peggy whatsoever and I would hate for the writers to just shove one or both of those pairings into the show just because they could. What next, Peggy and Roger hooking up? Pete and Joan?

phantomantonym asked: "Wishful thinking of Don/Peggy fans"- eh, maybe. I mostly don't care one way or the other. Although Peggy deserves a lot better.
Anonymous asked: Matthew Weiner never said that Don was based completely on that Draper Daniels guy. He just took influence from him an ad man. Everything else is just the wishful thinking of Don/Peggy fans,
Re: Don/Joan
I agree with those who doubt that Don and Joan ever had an affair. There is evidence, actually, in Season 1 ep. 5 that I think can be taken at face value. Don walks out of his office and Joan, looking after him, says to Peggy:
Would she so easily pretend nothing ever happened with him, when at that point, she had already blithely hinted to Peggy about making a ‘mistake’ with Paul?...
phantomantonym asked: Madmen is based on a real life relationship between the character Don and is once-sect., Peggy. If Wiener sticks to what happened with these two, yep, eventually they actually got married. But RL Peggy made RL Don wait YEARS.
Anonymous asked: I think Don's relationship with Peggy/Joan compares to Tony Soprano's relationship with Jennifer Melfi. There's sexual tension, but it's never acted upon.
s-tanleytucci asked: You're all so silly. Don/Roger is clearly canon.
bendallyournotesforme asked: Are these people writing about Don/Peggy delusional? Did anyone watch "The Suitcase?" Don makes his stance on that clear to her because she asks him why he never propositioned her like he has so many other women. Regarding Joan, it seems unlikely that they have been together in the past or will be in the future. Their relationship is obviously friendly, but she almost seems kind of like...
panamanianmoon asked: To the person who said they didn't think Don would ever go for Peggy...I don't think Peggy would ever go for Don! Let's get real.
I agree about less of Don’s love life this season. It’s inevitably not exciting because you know he’s just going to screw it up and it’s becoming a redundant pattern. That said, while a Don/Pegs pairing could jump the shark, the only way it wouldn’t jump the shark is if it happened season 7, and actually allowed the two of them to be happy with another human being. ...
Anonymous asked: I really don't want Don/Peggy OR Don/Joan. He seems to be able to have functional relationships only with women he doesn't sleep with! Can we have more of them working together (and in general more SCDP and less Don's love life) please?
Anonymous asked: There should be no Don/Joan and no Don/Peggy EVER. Don does not need to sleep with every woman on the show. Do people want Mad Men to jump the shark?
musici asked: I don't think Don would ever go for Peggy, I mean there's tension there...but then again what do I know know.
Anonymous asked: I think Don should just be single (and mingling) for the rest of his life. He doesn't strike me as the type that needs someone.
Anonymous asked: yea no i love don/peggy the way they are, there should really be no romance between them.
Anonymous asked: But I love Don/Peggy.
Anonymous asked: Does anyone else feel like Don/Peggy seem more plausible than Don/Joan? I just don't see Don and Joan ever working out.
