Mad Men

A Bumpy Transition and a Surprising Departure

In this episode of Mad Men, "Lost Horizon," Don runs away from his troubles once again, Peggy and Roger drink and roller skate the day away, and Joan finally reaches her breaking point, with shocking consequences.This is a big, and heartbreaking, episode for the Mad Women on the show. With Don out on another walkabout and most of the side characters off the scene, the episode becomes a vehicle for Joan and Peggy's stories.

Like any award show though, the Golden Globes can leave things out, resulting in huge snubs. Here are some of the biggest shows and actors that the Golden Globes forgot in 2016. 1.

2016 Golden Globe Nominations: New Shows 'Mr. Robot,' 'Outlander' and More Dominate

Welcome to the Golden Globe Awards, where the TV nominees are always delightfully insane. There's no other awards show where you can see total unknowns like Narcos, Mozart in the Jungle and Casual score major nominations. Where else can the CW get TWO nominations in the same category? Where else can Starz's more
