15 Annoying Mistakes You Never Noticed In Mad Men

By James Hunt /

9. The Other Mrs Pete Campbell

Alongside her work on Community, Alison Brie is best known for being the woman who inexplicably married - and stayed that way - Pete Campbell on Mad Men, Trudy. Pete, faithful and loving husband that he is, keeps a picture of his darling wife on his desk at work. However, back in the pilot episode, the person in the frame is not Alison Brie. Pilots are obviously filmed before a cast is fully locked-in, so it€™s likely that Trudy simply hadn€™t been cast at this point. It does offer a glimpse of a world where Alison Brie isn€™t on Mad Men though, and that is a world that no one wants to live in. So who is the mystery woman portraying Pete€™s wife? None other than Matthew Weiner€™s mother.
