Not being alive then, it was also interesting to me to see how they portrayed the MLK assassination. Was it really something that rocked middle-class white America? Granted, many of these folks aren't blue-collar middle class, but it sure seemed like this resonated far more throughout the city than I had ever imagined it did.

And if Don goes, he goes off that balcony in his apartment. That's the first time I recall them focusing on the height/expanse of the balcony. And he had that exhausted look about him that I'd imagine one often sees in someone right before the plunge. Just a thought.

Like I said, Don's era has come to a close. With the impending arrival of the 70s, the reign of the alpha males is coming to a close. He'll either find peace soon, or find pavement later.

It seemed that some of the people were concerned due to the likelihood of riots.
