Yes, I know Mad Men is not a scifi show (unless you consider the early ’60s a fantasy, with “Camelot” and all). But there is a connection, however precarious it may be.
My second favorite Supernatural writer, Cathryn Humphris, is now a writer (and executive story editor) on Mad Men. (Raelle Tucker, my favorite Supernatural writer, is now on True Blood.) And while I miss them on Supernatural, I’m thrilled both of them are working on more popular (and critically acclaimed) shows.
Last night I saw Catheryn’s name in the opening credits (sandwiched between two other writers), so I was hoping it would be a good episode. Oh my goodness, it was amazing! The best show of the year, maybe even the entire series. (If you’ve never seen Mad Men, this probably won’t make a lick of sense, so I’ll put it behind a cut.)
