Mad Men - Season 1

Currently unavailable.
Mad Men - Season 1
 

Product Description

 
Matthew Weiner, a writer and executive producer for THE SOPRANOS, may have set this series in the picture-perfect 1960s, but his characters are just as scheming as the mobsters on his last show. MAD MEN begins in 1960 on Manhattan's Madison Avenue at the fictional ad agency of Sterling Cooper. Creative director Don Draper (Jon Hamm) rules the halls of his company and the hearts of every woman he meets, while his wife, Betty (January Jones), struggles to be the perfect mate and mother in a suburb upstate. But just as in the world of advertising, Don may not be all that he appears.

In MAD MEN, the glass ceiling is dangerously low, and sexism reigns in a way that may shock modern viewers. But this isn't the prim '60s of THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW; Weiner's characters seduce, smoke, and swig with abandon--often within the walls of Sterling Cooper. MAD MEN takes equal parts substance and style to create an addictive cocktail that fully earned its freshman season wins at the Golden Globes for Best Drama...

Human zoos (Madison Ave. and the suburbs) A.D. 1960

Date of Review:  Mar 27, 2009
The Bottom Line: I am ambivalent about going to zoos and don't  like being involved with these characters, well-acted as they are.

Review: Preface
 
The 1950s are widely celebrated as being the "golden age" of television. There were some live dramas that have lived on mostly in memory (though some have become available on DVD) along with Milton Berle (a taste I never acquired),...

Mad About AMC TV's Mad Men

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: Mad Men is a look back at fast-track Madison Avenue life circa 1960 with talented cast, compelling story lines and insight into our parents' worlds.
Review: Who says summer is a dull time for television? Thanks to American Movie Classics and its original series "Mad Men," it's becoming my favorite time of the year for viewing.

With the opening season set in the spring of 1960 in the Madison...

Mad at "Mad Men"

Date of Review:  Aug 2, 2009
The Bottom Line: They bit off more than they can chew.
Review: This is one of those series where friends were talking about it so we tuned in and found it flat, badly written, poorly acted and directed, so unimpressed and critical that we rented several seasons of shows from Netflix to see how we could disagree...
