Because of that, without his wallet, they have nothing in common. Does he drink because he is lonely? Or is he lonely because he drinks?
this is a show, real life is quite different. you want to keep your face but you also have to please your bosses and you do not want to give them any excuse to let you go. no matter how good you are, anybody is replaceable.
"Do you want me to take your watch?" That made me laugh out loud. But, Roger playing organ in a dark office while Peggy is roller skating in circles around him is just surreal.
gyno Peggy’s entire arc was her trying to balance work and relationships. She had very little to gain by sleeping with most of those men while Joan literally whored herself out.
The scenes with Roger and Peggy are great... as are all the scenes with Don and Peggy... and Joan and Peggy... and Stan and Peggy... and Pete and Peggy... I think there's a theme somewhere in there.
Peggy and Roger's daughter would be around the same age. I think Peggy is the daughter Roger always wanted. They both have similar personalities and professional spirit.
Where as Don was Peggy's mentor and father figure, Roger seemed like her jovial uncle everyone loved. Superb writing, never grow tired of watching this show.
@@ritikaritu2181 Trotsky was a Communist and one of the people who led the Russian Revolution...Unions are (arguably) a communist ideal, and the aircraft mechanics strike would have been organised by a union...Peggy was making fun of the fact that Mohawk airline is heartlessly defying the union and strike, and Roger is reminding her that she works in advertising, one of the most capitalistic (and therefore anti-communist) industries that exist. So, he's basically calling her a hypocrite.
He really should stop walking with so much money in his pocket...

The late 1960's were still a decade away from the first ATMs. If you didn't get to the bank by 4pm to cash a check you had no money, so you carried a few hundred in your wallet to be safe.
You've never seen Deadwood then. Matthew Weiner is incredible but David Milch isn't from this planet. His command of the English language may even surpass Shakespeare.
It's like roger gets a "father daughter" bonding moment where he doesnt have to cash out just to spend time together. And she gets to "be on the good side" of one "the big bosses" and not get shitted on.
Roger's character arc is one of the more interesting ones for me throughout the show. I think he was always a good guy but somehow had to learn to be himself, because he was a sleaze bag in the early seasons, I couldn't stand him. Perhaps a victim to the times.
@@BigHorseFilm Roger grew up very entitled. He was spoiled by his mom and was handed the company by his dad. He expects things to be handed to him. Roger never knew how to deal with people who did not take his shit.
I've read that in the "...the lie is extra" scene Elizabeth Moss portrayed Peggy in the way John Slattery portrayed Roger. She was being Roger....with Roger!
Philippe Hunt I wouldn’t call it change, it’s just that she finally has some power and leverage to actually allow herself to be bolder. The sexism of her time kept her chained, once she gained power she showed herself more.
It’s weird. As I look back on the series my mind views the scene of Peggy skating around the empty offices with Roger playing as the actual emotional end of the show. More so to me then the actual ending that marked the end of an era.
It never hit me that the last scene of them together was Roger playing that dreamy little tune on the organ as Peggy rollerskates around the office... Such a beautiful little scene.
@@ritikaritu2181 Its a socialist thing to care more about injustices in the workplace than to actually work. He was a Marxist socialist and was banished from the Communist party
“Hey, Trotsky, you’re in advertising.” Hilarious line brilliantly set up and delivered. Also very much like “you’re the only around here that doesn’t have that stupid look on her face.” Kinda sums her up in a nutshell.
This was SUCH a great show! No special effects or elaborate sets, just great writing and characters brought to life by a crew of great believable actors! Shows of this caliber only come around once a decade or so!
@@jenlindley7780 Marvelous Mrs Maisel is like a comedy version of Mad Men. It's set in the same era as the first few seasons of Mad Men, it talks about alot of the same events happening, they talk about the same Manhattan locations. The production value is also super high, the way it was in Mad Men. They pay attention to the details of the era.
@@geneparmesan8748 Roger makes being self involved to the extent of no consideration for anyone around him.........funny. He's the polar opposite of the self involved and completely insufferable Peter Campbell........ where Pete makes you want to punch him the face for what he says.....Roger has you laughing and in danger of peeing in your pants. But in the end both seem not give a RATS BEHIND about those around them only truly concerned about how things affect them.
Nothing wrong with eating cottage cheese and ketchup while making your employees take part in your openly fetishistic love of Japanese culture. That guy was living the dream, too.
Those were lovely. I never watched this programme when it aired. Now I'm wetting my feet via youtube. I think I have a good time in my future. Peggy is my favorite character.
...not trying to be snarky, really. But her father was dead, she was unmarried, So what did she do with her paycheques if she didn't have her own bank account? Did women in this situation just cash them and walk around with huge amounts of cash on her? A pickpocket would probably scout out women coming out of a bank on paydays.
@@Circa1628 Good question, according to Forbes: "Technically, women won the right to open a bank account in the 1960s, but many banks still refused to let women do so without a signature from their husbands. This meant men still held control over women’s access to banking services, and unmarried women were often refused service by financial institutions." Mad Men takes place in New York so probably things were more progressive than in more rural parts of the country. Also considering how women were a big part of the workforce it wouldn't make sense for banks to exclude big part of the potential clientele. While that may be the case for big cities, less populated areas probably still didn't allow women to own bank accounts.
I think that women not being allowed bank accounts was not as oppressively prevalent as people think. It has been mytholgized. The fact that banks were smaller, local businesses, people were certainly treated as known individuals with known circumstances, and an unmarried woman, a widow, or anyone who would NOT need a joint account was certainly granted one if they had to have one.. It is a feminist myth. Let's move on.
Peggy Olsen went through a great deal. From having a child out of Wedlock raised in secret by her Mother/Sister. Too becoming head Copy writer in entire agency. Plus having struggled being only woman in male dominant Industry.
Wow this made me emotional. That roller skating and organ music. Watching Mad Men was such a treat. Can't believe the show last aired almost five years ago.
watching this compilation is the first time the skating scene has brought tears to my eyes. after the prior conversation, paired with the cinematography, that scene is so poignant and touching. god, i love mad men more than any tv show in history wow.
"What are you doing tonight?" "I don't know, what did you have in mind?" is a hilarious response to say to your boss. Would use it myself if it weren't for the fact I'd get #MeToo-ed out the door pronto haha.
What an amazing show.. l saw it when the first episode aired on AMC and these scenes especially love the organ, the skates, the empty broken office and Peggy & Roger it brings tears of sadness & joy all for the Love 💕 of Madmen * Have most of the season on DVD 📀 I love to watch with the commentary from the Cast.. Bravo, Well done 😍😎🤩👏
All the writing in these scenes is brilliant -- it just sparkles, but one of my favorite moments is at 6:15, when Peggy calls Roger out on his nostalgic wallowing -- she just won't go there with him -- and he gives her the side-eye and gently, wryly says "okay, hot stuff." Roger was appalling in some ways, but authentic and tolerant in other ways. What a great character and what a great delivery, in the quietest of moments.
This is one of those shows I just sort continually watch on a loop. Even if I’m reading a book or listening to music, sometimes I’ll just put it on with the sound off. Each episode is like an episodic novella and a visual treat. As for current television series, you want to check out Mrs. America if you were into Mad Men. Plunging headlong into the 70s era feminism, Mrs. America has smart writing that doesn’t feel dumbed down as well some beautiful & accurate costumes, props & vintage commercials.
One of the reasons Mad Men was so great is because all the principal characters where shown at their worst and at their best. They could have been actual real people...
I love how he said did I mention I was in the navy in that is the pope catholic stop asking stupid questions kinda way. I would have preferred working with him instead of Don too.
There are so many perfect scenes in Mad Men. But I think the scene with Peggy and Roger when he’s asking her to work up the campaign for Mohawk airlines is the most perfect
Their scenes were always my favorites just because they have so few together it's amazing how good they are. I always figured that their rapport came from a separate place where they knew each other from afar and had no need to interact with one another. Peggy loved creative people and was ambitious so she never paid mind to everything else. Roger liked shiny polished women and didn't waste his time on people he knew he couldn't get through to. He only came to Peggy out of necessity and Peggy likes to feel important. Also Roger always secretly liked strong women so when he tells Peggy that she doesn't need to make men feel comfortable he really is the best person to give her that advice. No one else in the show could have told her that not Don, not Pete, not Joan, and not even Stan. The scene with Peggy carrying the painting to her office is really played out but it was such a good image for her.
“Hey Trotsky, you’re in advertising.” Best. Line. Ever. 😂
Definitely 😂
Do you want me to take your watch?
There was also the scene when she asks him for the empty office. Roger says something like "there's a room full of men who didn't have the nerve to ask".

Amiri Moore haha I cackled at that. The best thing about it is straight after he tells her what to do she puts him on his knees. 😂
That was the last good shot he got in during that exchange. She straight-up took him apart after that.
"You're being very demanding for someone that has no other choice." God, the amount of times I wish I could've said this to some of my bosses.
I did that one time........It was so satisfying.
She is an absolute fucking legend throughout that scene.

both of them i consider the stars of the show. Don was the lead, but to me, he wasn't the star.
"Oh my god! What is this?!"
"It's an octopus pleasuring a lady. You can have it. You can put it in your office."
$400 USD is equivalent to about $3.2k USD now, which just makes Peggy's barter more impressive

No other person could deadpan the line "it's an octopus pleasuring a lady" like John Slattery.
That painting was out of hand!

There's a few more, but not enough!
Hahaha the stark frankness of this line: "It's an octopus pleasuring a lady." hahaha

“Believe or not, I’m not scary. Organ music is scary.”
“Do you want me to take your watch?” Makes me laugh every time
The rolling skating is perfect.
In this one video we see how much Peggy changed from a meek girl to a strong woman.

It's called confidence and it comes from hard work.
I think the meek girl routine was something she acted, intentionally
Peggy: the only woman in the office that could make that much cash from Roger without laying on her back.
S.A.M on the contrary, I think she had roger on his knees
Correction: she just needed to sit in her chair.
She used her scientology powers to mind control him...

There are so many perfect scenes in Mad Men. But I think the scene with Peggy and Roger when he’s asking her to work up the campaign for Mohawk airlines is the most perfect
The series most underrated duo!
The organ music was used a lot in B movies of the day to create spooky atmospherics. There must also be a reason to show the free mason door pass.
I always loved their interactions!
I love things like this, slices of a show stitched together to better reveal layers... Great job.
I wish these two had more scenes together. They had a very entertaining dynamic.
I also really liked the scene in the earlier seasons when Peggy asked Roger for her own office.
"are you drunk?! Get your feet off that desk!"
Rodger was a brilliant character, brilliantly played, they were such a great cast.
Great compilation...although...
I miss where Peggy asked Roger for her own office...
"Oh Christ! I have a heart condition you know?!?"
Yup, and smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish.
Their scenes were always my favorites just because they have so few together it's amazing how good they are. I always figured that their rapport came from a separate place where they knew each other from afar and had no need to interact with one another. Peggy loved creative people and was ambitious so she never paid mind to everything else. Roger liked shiny polished women and didn't waste his time on people he knew he couldn't get through to. He only came to Peggy out of necessity and Peggy likes to feel important. Also Roger always secretly liked strong women so when he tells Peggy that she doesn't need to make men feel comfortable he really is the best person to give her that advice. No one else in the show could have told her that not Don, not Pete, not Joan, and not even Stan. The scene with Peggy carrying the painting to her office is really played out but it was such a good image for her.
She was the daughter he wished he had. He respected her more than anyone in the firm.
