The Evolution of Peggy Olson
A video montage of Mad Men's leading lady growing up.
By Hooksexup
Over Mad Men's four seasons, viewers have watched Peggy Olson grow from a modest, mild-mannered secretary from Brooklyn into a creative copywriter with a sharp pencil and a sharper mouth. Peggy's coming-of-age story has produced some of the show's most memorable moments, the best of which we've compiled here:

This is wonderful, I love Peggy
i LOL'ed. go pegs
It's too bad Armisen broke up with her.
They still treat her like the annoying little sister though.
She'll get back with Pete, don't you worry.
I hope she avoids Pete, he's such a smug and terrible character. He's the evil Wil Wheaton.
Props on the Wil Wheaton spelling. At least he doesn't spell his name Pet Campbell.
I know this is getting off topic, but I always wondered who would win in a fistfight between Wil Wheaton and Mark-Paul Gosselaar.
Meh
You missed one. The end of last season when Roger tells Peggy to get him a cup of coffee and she responds "No".
I'm not the only one who's thinking that then. Jeez, get over "Mad Men" already!
SHE IS SO AWESOME! Mad men rules! And to eggshell... if you dont like mad men..why the hell are you even here anyway?
Seems too forced. She doesn't feel like a real person with real depth. More like a modern fantasy, speaking the way someone in 2010 wishes someone would speak in 1960. I wish MM would have played peggy more subtly and not tried to make her ridiculously meek and then suddenly turn her into ridiculously bold. I guess that is the MM aesthetic tho, kind of cartoonish. Draper and Joan are also cartoonish in appearance, although their characters are more credible.
Let's face it, every episode seems like they're acting in a play, which they kind of are, that unique way the dialogue is delivered only on this particular show. The Sopranos had the same thing, where they would conspiculously interject local streets and landmarks and towns into the conversation, sounding almost like they had quotation marks around them, but you went with it.
Elizabeth Moss is a Scientologist. Thus, she is hideous and unworthy of love.
L. Ron Hubbard would be ashamed.
'he's renting my vagina' is a great line;-)
Now you say something
