Here is something a I wrote for the Guardian:

Don is somewhat horrified by Megan’s “come hither “dance, not only because he’s forced to share the hot missus’s charms with others, but also because it’s more difficult to compartmentalise. The culture is opening up and the firewalls are coming down. And for a guy like Don Draper, who posses such a fractured view of himself, walls are important. As a predictor of how things are going to turn out, look no further than the opening sequence. Mad Men has essentially always been about one thing: falling. Like the silhouetted figure plummeting down between high rises, we are all at the mercy of the drop.

All the most important Mad Men Gifs come from Bohemea, she is a muse and an artist!
