Nathaniel: Hi Joanna and Jose! Welcome back. We'll call this Part One and it will be truly perverse if there isn't a part two since there was so very much gownage last night.
Joanna: So happy to be back! Like so many things we saw last night, my excitement runneth over.
Nathaniel: There are these precious few windows of time, see, and we're all online so we cover what we can. Speaking of windows of time... Mad Men's Emmy time passeth over. 0 for 17. So let's start with the Mad Women because they're never 0 for 17 in Nathaniel's World.
Megan Draper, Joan Holloway Harris, Marie Calvet, Peggy Olson, Betty Draper Francis
Joanna: I feel like I just saw Jessica Pare's dress on someone else. Am I crazy?
Nathaniel: Jose will know.
Jose: Maybe on her. She's been doing a lot of Jason Wu lately. But also, this is a very favored shape for red carpets, it might remind you of when Cate Blanchett won the Oscar too
Nathaniel: Oh, yes, that. I see it.
Joanna: Well it's very goddessy and I like it and her cherry popping lip. Unlike, say, Elisabeth Moss's dress which reminds me of a ravaged sofa
Nathaniel: Ravaged Sofa - ha! Some hipster band seeking a name just found it. Jessica Paré's look strikes me as a little too polished. Or maybe Jessica Paré is just making me nervous because I keep reading these theories that it was the Megan-focus of the latest season that turned Emmy against Mad Men...
