The midseason finale resisted the notion that the Golden State is the ultimate symbol of rebirth. PLUS: Watch “Mad Men: The Musical."

Between the end of WWII until the 1970's, California was a "promised land". Beautiful place with lovely weather, many activities available to people, fresh fruit, the beach and ocean.

If Mad Men were real life and I was Don, I would have already been to California and told the guy out there who hated living out there and was in love with Peggy to move back east already. NYC is cold, compact and the City in the late 1960's was dirty, crime ridden and expensive.

California went to hell the last 30 years, it is too expensive, too liberal and a government that chases small business away instead of embracing them with incentives with millions of illegals. NYC is ironically the better choice, if you can stand the winter and the cost.
