It tries hard but has so many dramatic and comedic holes it’s ultimately a minor effort. Midge is a horrible person and parent. Don Draper and her would totally hit it off. Her ex is an annoying parasite and really pointless to the story except for midge to get a quick carnal pit stop.
This series has to end with the character of true comedic timing and commentary taking the stage. Susie is the soul of the show and the brave, damaged, fearless character that makes the cardboard cut out of midge occasionally interesting. She deserves a spin off series.
