To some Mad Men fans, I probably don't even need to tell you that tonight's episode is something you shouldn't miss ---that is if you're one of those who were able to briefly download the leaked  "My Old Kentucky Home" from the Apple iTunes store nearly two weeks before the episode is scheduled to be broadcast on television. AMC even released a statement, saying "The third episode of Mad Men's new season was made available prematurely to some iTunes Season Pass holders for a short time. We urge those who received this episode in error to please refrain from spoiling plot lines out of respect to other Mad Men fans who are looking forward to watching the story unfold."



I don't blame those who wasted no time watching "My Old Kentucky Home." But for those who didn't, you can expect Peggy to revisit her infamous dialogue: "I'm Peggy Olson and I want to smoke some marijuana." That alone might be enough to get you glued to your TV screens but the rest of the episode is just as good.

Last week on Mad Men, Sterling Cooper tried to decide if they will accommodate a very unusual request from a client while Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) worked hard on a campaign, which affected her personally. Furthermore, Betty's (January Jones) ailing father (Ryan Cutrona) arrived in town, and Don and Betty dined out with Lane and his icy wife. As for Roger, he's busy making arrangements for a wedding.

The drama continues tonight as the writers fight off boredom when they are forced to work after hours.  Meanwhile, Roger hosts a party just as Joan and Greg host a party of their own. Sally, on the other hand, has a run in with Grandpa.
