I guess I'm not really feeling the hate for Betty. She never pretended to be anything other than what she is. I was about Sally's age in 1963. My parents were the Jewish version of Don and Betty, my upbringing was similar, and my Dad's office was like the show.
Oh, I don't hate her. In season 1 I felt terribly sorry for her. Don treated her appallingly - and my sympathies remained with her all through the divorce, except in the way she treated Sally.
I'm sure that in future episodes there'll be plenty to get me back on her side.
