Brief synopsis of Mad Men - Season 1

Mad Men is a compelling insight into the harsh reality of life in the 60s, perfectly portrayed through the dealings of a prestigious ad agency in New York's Madison Avenue. This was the era of astonishing sexism, homophobia and the last golden years of the guilt free cigarette, as mass consumerism took hold and helped form the American dream. This stunning thirteen episodes series drips with atmosphere and is a sophisticated, no holds barred drama from the producer of the Sopranos.

Rated - 5 starsHBO does it again. Superb.

A customer from Richmond , 03/07/2008

Compelling, atmospheric, and completely absorbing even as your jaw drops at the attitudes portrayed. Superb writing and acting, and stunningly sophisticated assemblage of story. The characters are wonderfully complicated, flawed, memorable. This takes TV production to a new level. Very much looking forward to Season 2.

Rated - 2 starstotally unforgiving

NCC1701 from Grampian , 13/08/2008

Somewhere this series was advertised as razor sharp black comedy. And for this I give it 2 stars.

Bleak relentless deptiction of '60's madison avenue advertising 'highflyers'.

If you want coloured film noir try this.

If you want black comedy try anything else!
