Why oh why did Don Draper go all 50 Shades of Gray ordering Sylvia, the woman he's having an affair with, around like a dog on last night's episode of Mad Men? Oh, how the mighty have fallen! When he asked Sylvia to crawl on the floor and get his shoes, I almost turned the channel. Thankfully, she didn't crawl, but she did get the shoes for him and put them on his feet. Is this what Mad Men has become? What happened to Don asking a hooker to slap him in the face? (I guess that was during his masochistic phase. He's come full circle now!) That face slapping scene was sexy. The tomfoolery going on last night wasn't sexy at all. It was pathetic.
I'm starting to long for the day when Mad Men wraps entirely so Jon Hamm can do comedy work full time. He's so funny but he can't be funny on Mad Men because Don Draper isn't funny. Don Draper is a jerk and a buzzkill. Is this the start of Don's fall off the building that we see in the opening credits for every show? Is this the beginning of the end for Draper? Maybe.
