Precisely. Only there's also a lack of political correctness. Which is refreshing.

My son got us to watch the Season 5 opener last night. It reminded me of the worst office I ever worked in. I couldn't find a single sympathetic character. I couldn't even see a villain I could could be interested in. And for this I missed a re-run of "Falling Skies."

Yeah, but the whole idea of advertising is amoral. Yet how tremendously Madison Avenue has impacted our culture for the last 70 years is what is truly remarkable.

@Patrick: Read between the lines. The subtext of Mad Men is "the hippies were right, this is what they were 'dropping out' from".
Sounds pretty politically correct to me.

After hearing some really good things about Mad Men, I gave it a try.
It seems to move really slowly and not have a lot of redeeming values – like an old daytime soap that happens to be in the Sixties.
I'm glad to see I am not the only person in the world who doesn't like it.
