Why is Jim Cutler (Harry Hamlin) not listed here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.229.202.198 ( talk) 18:39, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
Agreed. In the seventh season, Cutler is a major character. While his private life remains unknown, he's the dominant partner in the office and gets a lot of screen time Pugnaciousignatius ( talk) 00:23, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
Clara is left out of this article. I forget whose secretary she is originally, but she was Pete's for a long time, and now she's Ken's. Colinmccormick ( talk) 20:34, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
Why is Rosemarie DeWitt's character Midge Daniels missing? She seems important enough to warrant inclusion. 87.198.16.241 ( talk) 23:08, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
It's not yet entirely clear whether Peggy gave up her baby for adoption or is letting her sister raise it. 149.79.35.227 ( talk) 21:07, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
That is not an established fact - that her sister is raising Peggy's baby. Her sister was pregnant when she was shown visiting Peggy at the hospital after she gave birth, so the baby her sister is raising could very well be her own baby, and Peggy nephew. 165.189.169.138 ( talk) 15:58, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
This page is a mess in terms of what's sectioned and what's not. It's preposterous that primary, frequent characters such as Harry Crane and Paul Kinsey are resigned to a single Sterling Cooper section, yet every single family and friend gets their own section. Bogus. Most of them, save for the Draper children and a couple of Don's hoes, shouldn't have that higher degree of notability. Who else agrees that it's more appropriate (if at all) for the employees to have sections, but not the minor characters that are less frequent and often resigned to single seasons?-- Cinemaniac 86 Dane_Cook_Hater_Extraordinaire 09:15, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
How is Conrad Hilton not listed as a character here? 76.95.33.159 ( talk) 08:12, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
As it would seem to be of interest to many, it would be fitting to include a section in which the inspiration for certain recurrent characters is explained. Although it does not appear to be true in all cases, many of the characters on the show are based on real men or women. One recent example is the character of Conrad Hilton. Because some characters have been inspired by actual persons, it causes one to wonder if this isn’t also true of other characters. Most notably, there has been considerable internet chatter regarding the character of Jimmy Barrett and whether or not he is based on an actual person or simply a composite. Much of the show’s appeal stems from the way in which it combines fictitious story lines with actual people and historical events. As this is the case, it seems entirely appropriate to add this information to the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.97.177 ( talk) 00:30, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
I think there needs to be a set definition of what secondary characters, recurring characters, and minor characters mean (I think listing Don, Betty, Peggy, Pete, Joan, and Roger as primary characters is fine). Some of the names under minor characters sound like they should be listed as recurring (and I'll admit, some of the names I added fall into that trap as well). Are minor characters merely characters that show up and have little to no character development, or characters that only appear in one or two episodes? And what's the difference between secondary and recurring? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr ( talk) 13:43, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
Dr. Greta Guttman is described in the article as "stern and Teutonic". I am curious about the latter choice of word. Teutonic is an ancient, Germanic tribe, and I would like to know how it is relevant, or where it is mentioned that her ethnicity dates back to the Teutons? If the person who added that word meant is as an adjective, I wonder what exactly they mean by it, because as far as I know, Teutonic is not an adjective. - Mdriver1981 ( talk) 03:54, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
This article has gotten out of control. It includes too much minute detail, lacks significant references, and has generally grown too long. Much of this detail might be appropriate for the wiki dedeicated to the topic but is not appropriate for Wikipedia. Anyone want to take a swing and paring it down?-- RadioFan ( talk) 18:02, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
The following sentence is used to describe both Cosgrove, Crane, and Kinsey:
He initially features as part of Pete's entourage, seeming to spend more of his time in the office drinking, flirting, and gossiping than actually working.
This seems like a mistake or at the very least, bad writing. I don't know enough about the show to decide which character this describes better. Attys ( talk) 05:48, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
I removed a suggestion that Peggy fired Joey because he made comments about Trudy's pregnancy. That happened four episodes earlier and it was clear then that Peggy was upset because she gave up a child she had with Pete. There was no reference to those comments in the episode where Joey was fired, nor any prior suggestion that he should be fired, and it was obvious that he was let go because of his harassment of Joan. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.80.114.80 ( talk) 04:57, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
I also edited Harry's section, deleting a suggestion that Harry helped Paul get out of town for his own convenience. This is another addition that doesn't make sense. Harry gave him money and advised him to leave for California immediately because he realized Paul's girlfriend was crazy and that he (Paul) needed a way out, but wouldn't be able to do it without a push. Harry's gotten pretty disgusting over the course of the show, but it seems like it was a genuine act of generosity and friendship. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.80.114.80 ( talk) 19:14, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
