This show is spiraling down a pit of stupid.

TOTALLY! That was pretty fantastic.
Ya know, there was actually a lot to like about his last episode.

I have always liked Wayne Brady on the show and I like that the Marshall subplot is over. The rest was just dumb filler.
- Spoiler: show
- The bang-bang thing was clever.

I can't believe you guys are still watching this drivel.
I mean, yeah, I watched every episode through season seven and will probably finish eight and nine once they're on Netflix and I'm in some various stage of unemployment, but man, tuning in every week to watch Mad Men can be tiring and that's a good show.

I DVR it and watch it when I get around. It doesn't take much effort to watch.

Even without DVR there are TV torrent sites that post it almost immediately. And they utilize RSS so you don't even have to seek it out each week.

Quit speaking in code. The real question is how every awful contrivance (there's what, five per episode by now?) doesn't make you want to cringe and vomit from every pore.

I don't watch this show because I don't like it. That being said, Wayne Brady makes everything better.

I am holding out hope that the structure of this last season is all leading to some clever and heartfelt moment where they meet, but really I just want to see what happens in the end. It's a DVR show for sure.

The home stretch should be really solid. I fear the show's absolute best episodes are behind it. But I think the final run will be worth all this wheel-spinning.

I tried getting into this show like a year or two ago. I watched the first 7 or 8 shows from season 1, but I just couldn't do it. For me, it's a pretty unwatchable show. Sounds like the last few seasons have been pretty bad too, so I don't feel I'm missing out on anything.

Yup. That may have been the worst episode of the entire series.

The Marshall-centric episodes have been awful this year.

That was my favorite episode this season.
