Mad about Mad Men

Can you imagine being an advertiser in the 60's? Living in New York, smoking cigarrettes and drinking whisky in your office? Well, in Mad Men, Don Draper and his coworkers do that everyday and also, make adversiting campains for Lucky Stryke, Maidenform, Kodak, and the best brands of that time.

Can this man be even more sexy?

Mad Men is an AMC TV serie created and produced by Matthew Weiner and starring by Jon Hamm (Don Draper), Vincent Kartheiser (Pete Campbell), John Slattery (Roger Sterling), Elizabeth Moss (Peggy Olson) and Christina Hendricks (Joan Holloway). It has won four Golden Globes and fifteen Emmys, includying the "Best Drama Serie" Award, one for each year on air. The name of the serie becomes from a word play between Madison Avenue (the place where the offices were) and Men.

I started watching Mad Men last year because a friend recommended it to me. At first, I wasn't really surprised, even I didn't understand the business and couldn't recognize wich character was wich. But at the end of the first chapter, it totally blew my mind, because something really unexpected happen. Since that day, I can't   lose the show, and I always suffer because I want to watch this serie all days of my life.

The full cast

I must admit that the first thing I love about Mad Men was the sentimental part, but now, I'm completely in love with the advertising and all the 60's stuff. The serie has a really good photo shoot and soundtrack, and sincerely, I have no relationship with that season or even the history of the United States, but  now I think it is totally awesome. Now, I have a certain idea of what really happened when John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe died, and how were the changes about the women status at society. I think you're going nuts when you watch this show. Trust me.
