Roger is where he should be.


everyone thinks its Don that does the Coca-Cola ad? I thought it was maybe Peggy? Not really important though.
There were certain clues implying it was don's idea. The problems I had with the finale is "wait, who's this blond chick again, and what's her problem", and Peggy's completely out of character fit of romanticism. I can buy the guy falling in love with her, but the Peggy I know would have said "oh! My lunch is here" and hung up the phone.

At any rate, I've been rewatching the whole series again, and there was so much forethought put into this show. Weiner obviously had this thing written from beginning to end. It's kind of fun to notice things that didn't seem to serve any purpose at the time, but foreshadowed much later events. One of the best tv shows ever, really.
