Here's an article by TVLine's Matt Webb Mitovich about the season 5 premiere of Mad Men. In the article, Jessica Paré shares her thoughts on the season premiere and gives some scoop on the rest of season 5. Here's an excerpt from the article:
And if the Season 5 opener was any indication, Mr. and Mrs. Draper’s newlywed phase is not without its hiccups. So what sort of obstacles will be thrown their way that might not be able to be solved with angry floor sex?
“Is there really any problem that can’t be solved that way?” Paré said with a laugh when presented with just that question.
Turning serious, Mad Men‘s relative newcomer points out that since this “is not a show about people that have everything they want and are just happy, obviously there will be some friction between [Don and Megan]. I think the seeds are … pretty well-sown in the first episode.”
Case in point: In the drama’s two-hour opener, Megan (Mistake No. 1!) surprised her husband with a 40th birthday party, at which she (Mistake No. 2!) serenaded him with a sexy rendition of a song, while his many “intimates” watched on with degrees of bemusement, astonishment or, yes, even arousal. (Hi, Harry.)
Megan saw the gesture as romantic; Don declared it an embarrassment.
“She’s definitely a lighter person,” Paré observes of her alter ego, who elsewhere in the premiere likened herself to a smiler adrift in SCDP’s sea of smirkers. “She has more light to her than most of the characters, while there’s a lot of sarcasm and darkness in [Don]. So we’ll definitely see more of that [sort of conflict], I’m sure.”
