Set in 1960 New York City, 'Mad Men' explores the glamorous and ego-driven 'Golden Age' of advertising, where everyone is selling something and nothing is ever what it seems. And no one plays the game better than Don Draper (Golden Globe - winner Jon Hamm), Madison Avenue's biggest ad man - and ladies man - in the business.

This show does not disappoint. It is the best show I have seen since The Wire. The character studies are wonderful, and the historical context is almost a character in its own right. The evolution of gender roles is richly explored. Bravo to Mad Men's creators. Rating: - Excellent! Missed the first season so I just had to catch up. It brings back so many memories of the 60's. Really great show, but you need to see it from the beginning. Rating: - Try it, you'll love it. This series has the best story line, the best acting, and the best of every thing. When you watch it, it is as if you are there in the 50's and 60's. I really can't put into words just how good this series is. You just have to try it and then you'll say, I love it. Rating: - One of the finest series on television MAD MEN is one of those series that is almost impossible to praise too highly. It is also one of those series that puts on display the inherent superiority of television to the movies. That is a sentiment that I find offends many, but one that more and more thinking men and women are coming to embrace as television gradually turns out one amazingly intelligent series after another. Cinema is inherently limited on how much an individual movie can achieve in developing a complex narrative just as it is limited in how deeply it can explore character. The reason is obvious: a lack of time. Delving deeply into the lives of a group of characters is a luxury movies simply can't afford. The clock is ticking. MAD MEN will, when it is finished, be a narrative of the sixties. Season One begins in 1960k, shortly before the Kennedy-Nixon election. Season Two moves almost two years ahead of that. Subsequent seasons will move the story ahead by a couple of years each time, before coming to an end at the end of the decade. The sixties was clearly the most remarkable decade of the twentieth century. The world of 1970 has more in common with today in many ways than it did to 1960. The changes in our attitudes can scarcely be assessed. At the beginning of the series women all have their place in the office as servants to the men, accept passively their roles as eye candy and objects of sexual innuendo, and aspire to no more than moving up the secretarial rank. A gay man in the office is ... Read More Rating: - useless Totally useless, because upon ordering this product it was not posted that it could not be used with my cd player. You refused to exchange it for me and I doubt if I will use your website ever again.
