Did you people see the same film I saw?

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

May only be good if you're in the industry or can sit through tonnes of dialog.

Episode 1 was interesting enough to make me watch episode 2. That's as far as I can get. It's not funny and it seems to be concerned with how hard are the lives of wealthy women of whose lifestyles I can only dream. Yawn.

Jon Hamm is as appealing in this as he is appalling. You may feel stronger with one of those than the other, but while he is the number one character in this, there is a lot more going on here, than might meet the eye. Especially at first, you may not be able to see it. The women are as much part of the whole show as the (Mad) Men. You could even argue that they have a lot more going on at times.The show itself is slow paced though, which may not go down well with some viewers. You really have to be in the mood for the show, for the setting, the time line and all that surrounds it. I know that Jon was hated as much as he was loved by viewers. Because he had so many flaws, but was also intriguing and had that extra special charisma going for him. It's almost impossible to not be enamored by him.Some lingo may not work or may be confusing too, but in the context, you'll never lose sight of things. You don't have to be in the advertising or management business or having lived ages ago. This does work as a bit of a history lesson. And the acting is superb. Of course as with many (recent) shows, it makes sense to have watched all the seasons from the start ... it's character building, even if nuanced

Finally finished Mad Men,an outstanding TV show ,it's a 7 season one with 13 episodes each,it's a drama which takes place in the 60s filled with some suspense about advertising in general but contains a lot of relationship clichés,a lot of love scenes, i was really into it and got used so fast to the characters ,i hated some and loved some and was even neutral with some others. Each person in this show has its own flaws and qualities the main character is Don Draper who is a 40 year old handsome and Manly man ,who was raised up in a whore house and clearly he had a bad childhood,once grown up he got the chance to work in an advertising company "sterling cooper" thanks to his talent and intelligence and of course Roger who discovered him. but beside being nearly perfect,he was a damaged man always wanting to escape reality,he loves strangers ,money and the smell of new cars,he loves women,strong and independent ones,he made a lot of mistakes,he broke hearts,he hurt people including his wife Betty whom he cheated on. Don Draper is a complicated man,who doesn't love or cherish himself but in the end he got the chance to really know his true self and be more mature especially after the death of his wife. Jon Hamm is a really talented actor. Now for Peggy one of the principle characters of the show who has a strong personality ,she grew up in an old-fashioned environment and once she got a job in sterling cooper she tried to change herself to fit in,since she felt like she was the only reserved girl in the company,she tried smoking,getting out with men who weren't her type at all but she was ambitious and a little feminist in mind ,she couldn't accept the fact that men always treated women that way,they were always seen as just a body ,cooking and making love. she didn't see herself as one of those women,but in the last seasons she got to know her self better. Elisabeth Moss is one of the best actresses I've ever seen ,her performance in Mad Men was perfect. Peter Campbell as well is a great actor. The last episode was outstanding,except for the Betty part which was a little bit disturbing.
