[quote=Anonymous]My late stepfather was from an upper class Jewish family in New York in the early to mid-50s, and he was very much raised by his nanny/housekeeper.  His relationship with his mother was very formal, but he remained very close to his nanny throughout her life.  He visited her more frequently than he did his mother -- so that rings true to me.

I agree that the season improved after the French episodes were out of the way.  I didn't love Season 2 as much as I did the first season, but I thought it was solid once they got to the Catskills.

People talk about how Midge was narcissistic, and I agree.  But think about the characteristics that that first wave of women who broke into what was formerly a man's world had to possess.  My grandmother worked her way up from being a paralegal to a lead contract negotiator, surrounded by lawyers and union guys.  She was a huge narcissist and an alcoholic -- and her whole life was her work, to the detriment of her child (my mother, who was effectively raised by her grandmother).[/quote]
