What the Flick: Mad Men S06E11 "Favors"


Time for this week's What the Flick discussion about Mad Men. Lots of symbolism to go over.
This week- Mad Men Season 6, Episode 11, "Favors" was all about the past resurfacing and causing huge problems. 

What did the rat symbolize? And what scene does Cenk call the "Red Wedding" of Mad Men? Did you see the "Bob Benson Bomb" coming-- and what is Bob's true purpose and meaning in the wide scope of the show? Will Peggy get back together with Pete...or anyone else?

Is Don irretrievably broken? And what about the several online theories about Megan? Is there a chance they could still happen? 

Is it possible for Betty to be even more unlikeable?

What the Flick: Game of Thrones Season 3 Finale - "Mhysa"


Long, long review this week, but I'm not complaining. Wrap up the season with the guys from WTF.
In the Game of Thrones Season 3 finale, Tywin is challenged by Joffrey; Bran tells a ghost story; an unusual act of mercy plays out at Dragonstone; and time will tell if Daenerys is a conqueror or a liberator. With a ten month gap before Season 4 starts, what did the WTF crew think about Arya's act of violence, Shae's rebellion against Varys, and Ygritte showing how she really feels towards Jon? Find out what Ben, Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, and John Iadarola think in this discussion and review!

What was your favorite scene in this episode? What do you hope to see happen in season 4? And how do you plan to pass the time before the season 4 premiere? Let us know what you think in the comments!
