Mad Men is getting depressing

It's the real thing.

Wait until you see the final scene...

ETA: I like that you don't think it was depressing that a woman was forced to give up her child, another had an abortion and a guy hung himself in his office.

You should here how Jon Hamm talks about the character. He hate who Draper is. An alcoholic, a cheat, comes and goes to work when he pleases, selfish, etc.

I actually got to a point where I only cared about the scenes where they're working on their ads cause everything else was just depressing

Laynes first attempt at suicide might've been the funniest moment of the entire series

I would like to nominate the scene with the John Deere tractor in the office. You know the one

Yeah, it had depressing scenes before but pretty funny ones as well.

Power through the last couple of episodes. The end is solid.

But I won't lie. Mad Men is my favorite show ever, and the last half season sucked arse. They got away from their bread and butter, which was relationships of the big characters, who have very little to no interaction in the last half season.

Well the partners were whoring her out

Have you rewatched it all the way through since it ended? I was disappointed with the last half until I watched it in flow of the rest of the series and by binging it. It felt more natural than it felt originally

The waitress scenes seemed less emphasized the second time around. I think the biggest issue is there were 7 episodes left and there was a pressure to wrap things up but the show didn't really try to do that so it frustrated the fans watching it in the moment, but it was exactly how it always was

I've never considered MM "depressing". Just raw and real. Matthew Wiener didn't sugarcoat anything for the audience.
