On arriving in Detroit, Don finds Ted Chaough, from Cutler Gleason and Chaough at the same bar, where the two quickly realize that General Motors intend to give the account to McCann-Erickson, and are only meeting with SCDP and CGC to create the appearance of a fair bidding process and take any worthwhile ideas the two smaller agencies may have.

After their success, Don and Ted declare a nonplussed Peggy the copy chief of the new firm and task her with writing the press release announcing the merger of the two companies.

The stimulant affects staffers in different ways, including Don who stays at the office, looking for an old advertisement whose images and message were inspired by the prostitute, and honing a pitch to renew his affair with Sylvia, instead of working on the Chevy proposal. Megan must leave Don's children alone in the apartment to go to a meeting, with Sally as babysitter. Sally interrupts a disheveled burglar (Davenia McFadden), who pretends to be their "Grandma Ida".

Megan learns that Mitchell has dropped out of college and has been classified as 1-A, making him eligible for the military draft. Don then discusses Mitchell's situation at a client dinner that evening with Chevy, and the next morning Ted informs Don of a connection he has in the Air National Guard that can help with Mitchell's situation, but only agrees to help if Don drops Sunkist. Don tries to contact Dr. Rosen and gets Sylvia instead, who is overjoyed that Don has intervened. Julie informs Sally that she wrote a love letter to Mitchell, signed Sally's name, then slipped it under door of the Rosens' apartment. Sally goes back to the building and receives keys for the apartment building from the doorman.

While upland hunting in Michigan with two Chevy executives, Ken Cosgrove is accidentally shot in the side of his face with birdshot. Back in New York, Ken confides to Pete Campbell that he can no longer deal with the personal stress that Chevy is causing him. Pete sees this as his opportunity to finally handle Chevy and suggests to Ken that he manage the account. The firm's partners agree to the arrangement, and have Bob Benson on the account, too. Pete learns from Duck Phillips that Bob lied about his background. Pete tells Bob of his discovery, but reveals nothing to the firm so that he can maintain control over Bob. Don takes a day off from work, and Harry Crane calls to tell Don that Sunkist wants to expand their print ad campaign to television. Don initially cites the conflict with Ocean Spray, but changes his mind after seeing Ted and Peggy at a movie together. Don tries to make it up to Ted by backing him up during a pitch to St. Joseph Aspirin, but warns Ted that his affection toward Peggy has been clouding his judgment. Betty informs Don that she and Henry are considering sending Sally to boarding school for girls. Betty and Sally take an overnight trip to visit a school. The next day, while driving home, Betty informs Sally that the school's feedback about her was positive.
7813"In Care Of"Matthew WeinerCarly Wray and Matthew WeinerJune 23, 2013 (2013-06-23)2.69[17]

Stan tells Don he is offering to relocate to California to support Sunkist and build a west coast presence for the agency "one desk at a time." The agency receives an RFP from Hershey's Chocolate and Jim assigns Don to make a pitch. After spending a night in jail—over a drunken fight with a preacher trying to force Don to heed him—Don tells Megan he knows he's lost too much control of his life and wants to move to California, suggests she could pursue her acting career there and they can start over as they once were. Pete receives a telegram saying that his mother has fallen from a cruise ship and is lost at sea, and later finds out she married nanny Manolo; Pete thinks Manolo killed her and angrily lets Bob know he holds him responsible for what happened. Bob endures Pete's nasty barbs when they head to Detroit, but then comes up with a cunning way to get revenge on Pete: knowing Pete is barely able to drive, Bob tells the Chevy execs that Pete should demonstrate said (lack of) skills on a new floor model vehicle, where Pete ruins the car as well as any future he had on the Chevy account, which is then assigned to Bob. Ted comes to Peggy's apartment and says that he wants to leave his wife and be with her; they sleep together. Ted later reconsiders and decides he wants to move to California with his family, ostensibly to manage Sunkist but also to distance himself from his feelings for Peggy.

Ted asks Don to approve the arrangement but is rejected. Don then makes a brilliant pitch to Hershey executives, but as they prepare to leave, Don reveals his real childhood (as an orphan raised in a brothel whose sole pleasure of normalcy was the occasional Hershey bar for collecting johns' coins for one of the girls) and tells Hershey's they don't need an ad campaign. He then decides to give Ted the Sunkist account. Ted informs Peggy and Don informs Megan of the Sunkist news, which infuriates both women. The partners have a meeting on the morning of Thanksgiving and tell Don that his unpredictable behavior has forced them to insist that he take a mandatory leave of absence of at least a few months, with Peggy filling in for Don due to Ted's impending move to run the agency's new satellite branch in Los Angeles. Pete visits Trudy on Thanksgiving and they have a peaceful goodbye before he heads off to his new life as the junior member of the L.A. office. Joan invites Roger over for Thanksgiving dinner, but to be in Kevin's life and not hers. Following the partners' meeting, Don picks up his children and shows them the now-dilapidated brothel he grew up in.

Production and writing[]

Matthew Weiner and the rest of the writers began work on the sixth season in July 2012.[18] Principal photography for the sixth season began in October 2012.[19] Cast members John Slattery and Jon Hamm each again directed episodes this season; Slattery directed two, while Hamm directed one episode. Slattery had previously directed three episodes for the series, while Hamm made his directorial debut in season five with the episode "Tea Leaves".[20] The two-hour premiere had portions shot on-location in Hawaii.[21] Weiner commented on the structure of the premiere, saying, "it's really constructed like a film. It is its own story and hopefully it foreshadows the rest of the season."[3] Weiner said regarding the final 26 episodes of the series, "I can feel the end coming. I also felt like I'm not going to do 13 episodes of set-up; it should set itself up as it goes, as it always does."[3] Executive producers and writing team Andre Jacquemetton and Maria Jacquemetton, the only writers besides Weiner to be on the writing staff for every season, departed the series after the conclusion of the sixth season to develop new projects.[22]

Crew[]

Series creator Matthew Weiner also served as showrunner and executive producer, and is credited as a writer on 11 of the 13 episodes of the season, often co-writing the episodes with another writer. Erin Levy was promoted to producer and wrote two episodes. Semi Chellas was promoted to supervising producer and wrote two episodes. Janet Leahy was promoted to executive producer and wrote one episode. Writing team Andre Jacquemetton and Maria Jacquemetton continued as executive producers and co-wrote one episode together. Jonathan Igla was promoted to story editor and wrote one episode. New additions to the writing staff included co-producer Tom Smuts; staff writer Jason Grote and Carly Wray, who served as an assistant to the writers.

Scott Hornbacher, Michael Uppendahl, Jennifer Getzinger, John Slattery, and Phil Abraham each directed two episodes for the season. The remaining episodes were directed by cast member Jon Hamm, cinematographer Christopher Manley, and series creator Matthew Weiner, who directs each season finale.

Reception[]

Critical response[]

The sixth season of Mad Men received widespread critical acclaim. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 97% of 38 critics have given the season a positive review. The site's consensus is: "The passage of time has done little to dull Mad Men's rich cast of characters, who continue to confound."[23] On Metacritic, the sixth season scored an 88 out of 100 based on 28 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[24]

David Hinckley of New York Daily News had high praise for the show's longevity, claiming that "While many shows that have reached this point in the road have left their creative peak behind, Mad Men shows no such erosion. It still has things it wants to say and it still has the poetry to say them well.[25] With regard to the season's first episode, Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter stated "What’s intriguing and partly amazing about the two hour "movie" called "The Doorway" that opens the season April 7 is that Weiner has not lost his touch at writing a beautifully crafted script—jammed with the sadness and humor and personal revelations we’ve all come to appreciate. But in addition to that, he's decided to really hit home Mad Men's key theme in the first two hours with a kind of ferocity of intent we’ve rarely seen from him."[26] Jeff Jensen of Entertainment Weekly had a decidedly more mixed reaction, stating "Like Betty's frumpy frocks, Mad Men supersize episodes aren't flattering. Weiner should stick with tighter, denser storytelling packages. I hope he also delivers the season of change that the premiere seems to promise."[27] Matt Zoller Seitz of Vulture says that "It's a clever, at times tricky season opener. In "Lost"-like style, it strategically withholds key information that would help us make immediate sense of Don's behavior, which by turns suggests a prisoner, a sleepwalker, and a ghost."[28]

Jace Lacob of the Daily Beast stated that "Weiner is both archeologist and astronaut, and Season 6 of Mad Men is no exception, a beautifully realized and dazzling re-creation of our collective past and a glimpse of the infinite and unknowable."[29] Alan Sepinwall of HitFix said "It continues to be one of the most satisfying dramas in the history of the medium."[30] David Wiegland of the San Francisco Chronicle said that "Don Draper's journey has been and remains maddening, in a very good way as far as what makes a great TV show" and that "Like a great novel, Mad Men has character depths yet to plumb."[31] In a rave review, Maureen Ryan of The Huffington Post stated that "The AMC drama is full of sharp writing, ambiguous segues, effective surprises and the usual array of pitch-perfect performances."[32]

Accolades[]

For the 65th Primetime Emmy Awards, the sixth season received 12 nominations, including for Outstanding Drama Series, Jon Hamm for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Elisabeth Moss for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, Christina Hendricks for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, Robert Morse and Harry Hamlin for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series, and Linda Cardellini for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series.[33]

The season was nominated for Best Drama Series for the 2014 Writers Guild of America Awards.[34]
