Mad Men

THE EPITOME OF HOTNESS!!! And nothing less!

This has got to be one of the best shows of the year, if not ever. It's already in my category of premium series in the company of "The Sopranos" and SFU. A quality hour of entertainment that takes me on a trip to a time period that i had no clue of.

1. Let me start with COSTUMES & DECO.
The eye popping high waisted dresses the ladies wear are enough to leave you wondering. Noticed the small things like the kind of cookers they use and the glasses the drink with? Magnificent.
Then you have the brilliant cars that make you wanna jump through the screen and ride or browse the next car show with such vintage beauties.
The Producers did manage to really use a very convincing backdrop to transform the viewer to the time period intended.

2. SCRIPT
Flawless. Clever and brilliant. Joanna Lovinger (one of the script coordinator) did the same in "Six Feet Under" & "ROME".

3. PREMISE
I find it really interesting to see how people dealt along racial lines and the absurdity of the male chauvinists in the series.
How lucky are we to live in a time period where in many situations that is no longer the case. Yes, there are some male chauvinists and a lot of racism today....but it's not like you can't have a person of say African decent/ female in a good career position and as educated as his/her other counterparts
The shows gives us a nice insight into the advertising world. (Ok, am not i can justify that very well.... Who cares, the show is hot!)

4.You obviously cannot help but admire the actors who carry the show.

Jon Hamm was a great choice for this role. I've certainly got to admit that i had not heard of this dude before the show premiered. How brilliant is Christina Hendricks! Love her! Speaking of which- i scarcely knew that a network called AMC existed before the buzz of the Madison Avenue Men hit the net.

Ya, well. With a second season on the way i can hardly wait for next summer to gobble up the all new episodes.
