Writer, Susan Weissman’s recent (11 November 2009) article in The Huffington Post, posed a question that ask, if the alluring Betty Draper character would smile before next season’s final episode
As for Betts (as her husband Don refers to her as), she's what some refer to as spoiled and self-centered. Most women like Betty who were so use to having the spotlight shone on them that they can't bare to have anyone else upstage them in the attention category, including their own children - so they create a dramatic/depressed atmosphere, starring none other than themselves. It appears that Betty doesn't smile often because she wants someone to ask her what they can do for her or give to her to make her smile. Perhaps she is frustrated with her life, because she's not doing much to contribute to her own happiness.
Anyway, Betts appears to be going from one open-wallet to another with her latest human-ATM, Hunter, the only thing is, she's not really taking much to the table is she? No, she's a pampered brat who does not work outside the home, but has the nerve to drink and smoke while watching her housekeeper cook, clean, & care for her children. Yet, she still can't seem to find a way to accomplish any goal she may have had or find anything meaningful to do with her endless free time.
