0 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Mad Men 8/4/2008 I have been teaching advertising and design for over 31 years. I was just getting out of high school and attending a state university, ending up being an advertising design major when all of this stuff was going on in the ad world. So, my rememberence of the time was very vivid and remember the clash of the old and new ad styles at the time and faintly remembering hearing about the book "The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit", but not reading it. I did take a couple of trips to New York at that time to do some work for the company that I was employed, and just going to New York to try and get a job in an agency. "If you make it here, you can make it anywhere" was the theme at the time, so everyone wanted to go to New York to get a job, primarily for the experience and the couple of lines on your resume that said so. This, finally, leads up to my review of "Mad Men", which I feel comes extremely close to accurately portraying what went on at that time.Visually, it is dead-on as far as details are concerned. I remember that time period looking just like that and feeling like that. I feel that as far as portraying advertising at that time and the beginning of the Doyle Dane Bernbach period is tucked in just the right way. My only slight criticism, and this is a bias since I have been part of the industry and teaching how to become part of it, I wish there were more scenes as far as how the agency functioned and maybe a couple more follow-throughs on specific accounts in the agency. But again, that is personal. Also, maybe just a little less "soap opera" between the characters, which does add to the change in women's position in the business and the real world. Enter the working woman/mother, etc. I feel that everyone should see this show. I also wish that season two would come out as soon as possible right after it is finished. Thank You.

And it needs to be said that the best of TV in recent years -- Friday Night Lights, Damages, Battlestar Galactica, The Shield, and going back a few seasons, Everwood, Veronica Mars, Jack & Bobby -- outshines all but the absolute cream of movies. Alas, the great bulk of television programming is still the "wasteland" it was long ago dubbed, but back in the 60s, 70s and 80s when there was almost nothing worth watching on the tube, I can recall that it was every TV actor's aspiration to graduate to "features" where the best work was being done (and where the big salaries were). Today, however, for those actors fortunate enough to be working on shows like MadMen, or others of that caliber, they are already working at the pinnacle of their craft. They are collaborating daily with the most talented people in their industry -- writers, directors, producers, set designers and fellow actors -- all of whom share an artistic commitment to do great work. And it shows . . . in every aspect of every episode. Viewed from the perspective of that kind of fulfilling work experience, the only remaining lure of most movies roles could only be the money. MadMen is not just TV at its best, it is dramatic art at its best. Check it out -- preferably on DVD! Thank You. Was this review helpful?
