The new season of Mad Men does not quite pick up where last season left off which leaves us with a huge gap to fill with wondering whatever happened to Peggy's bundle of (surprise) joy.
In the meantime, Don is getting old, facing 40, going to seed, etc. etc. At the office, the Silent generation is starting to get hints that the Baby Boomers (young folks, hipsters) are moving in and getting ready to destroy everything they've built, or at least grabbed onto and claimed for their own.
The similarities in culture shift are frighteningly similar to what we've seen in the rise of Gen-Y that I could just spit. And the real rub is that Don has already had it better at his age than any Gen-Xer ever will. More power, more money, more prestige, more secretaries. The only thing relatable about him is his emergent obsolescence.
