I won't lie...I'm a sucker for great TV and movies. Thanks to the goodness of 'On Demand' cable, I just finished watching the first season of the Golden Globe Award-winning AMC series Mad Men after it was recommended to me earlier this year by a business associate. I've always loved advertising (Marketing Degree) so it was only natural that I was quickly drawn to this show due to the great writing, storyline, and imaginative concept...Plus...(Man Alive) who hasn't fallen in love with the stunningly beautiful January Jones...? (I Heart Betty Draper)
I'm really looking forward to watching Season 2, which starts this Sunday. Below is 'The Premise' of the show from AMC...
Set in 1960s New York, the sexy, stylized and provocative AMC drama Mad Men follows the lives of the ruthlessly competitive men and women of Madison Avenue advertising, an ego-driven world where key players make an art of the sell.
The series revolves around the conflicted world of Don Draper (Hamm), the biggest ad man (and ladies man) in the business, and his colleagues at the Sterling Cooper Advertising Agency. As Don makes the plays in the boardroom and the bedroom, he struggles to stay a step ahead of the rapidly changing times and the young executives nipping at his heels. The series also depicts authentically the roles of men and women in this era while exploring the true human nature beneath the guise of 1960s traditional family values.
Here's a trailer clip for Season 2:
So check out this show if you have a chance. It's really unlike anything else on TV right now and well worth your time. 'This Guy' gives it a two thumbs up...for what it's worth...
