Are you in agreement with me that MAD MEN is the best show on television?
The story line is multifaceted and intriguing.
The acting is superb.
I can't think of better casting, costumes and set design.
Do you have favorite scenes or characters? I'd like to hear your thoughts.
I am embarrassed to say I haven not seen it yet. Can one start now? Or dod I need to watch all the old seasons on DVD. I hear it is GREAT! And I adore the clothes.
ReplyDeleteI am 100% with you. It is in my opinion, the best show on television. Sunday's episode was one of my favorites ever.
ReplyDeleteI love Don (of course), Peggy, Roger and Pete has grown on me this year!
Well, you know what I think ;-) However, I can not continue to date Don. His alcoholic behavior is really a detriment to our once, unhealthy relationship. And watching him hug the porcelain throne was just TMI for me. But!! The show is great - exhausting, but great!! In the end I believe he'll be okay and I'll give him another chance. ;-) haha xoxo to you!
ReplyDeletei too am embarrassed.
ReplyDeletei have seen bits and pieces of the show,
but never an entire episode.
i am going to rent the dvd's at blockbuster and make an afternoon of it.
maybe then i will know
what everybody is so wild about.

Best show on TV, hands-down. We started watching it a bit late over here at my house and had to rent a couple seasons from Netflix, but I am so, so glad we did! Great show---and can we just go back to dressing like ladies again? Love the wardrobe choices!
ReplyDeleteI've watched from the beginning! It is one of the few shows I watch these days (reality TV really turned me away from TV).
ReplyDeleteI love how subtle it is, and how it views that era, which in some ways represents a turning point in our country's culture, through the filter of the present day.
I tend to be drawn to the women characters - Peggy, Joan, Trudy, Betty. The expectations of women back then were so stifling!
I just adore the costumes, Betty is lovely to watch, but then they all change so frequently that I have new favs nearly each show. If I had to pick a scene, the John Deer scene was the best...morbid I know but the line that came after it in the hospital about him not being able to work anymore...classic.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Renee.
ReplyDeleteI want to watch this season but know I will be lost. I will rent the previous season or however many there are....probably 5, I have been living in a hole.... How long does it take to watch a season? See, I have been living in a hole. Thank goodness for friends like you to keep me up to speed.

Good or bad we should never forget how we have progressed since then.....skillfull writing when it pleases with a sense of unease....
