Mad Men (TV show | 2007 to present | 5 Seasons)
Drama
If I list down the reasons why I love this show that
list can have several pages and over 100 items. But this short review will
carry only the top of that list and why you should watch it if you still don’t.
Number one reason I like it because of the historical
corporate factor which is the core plot takes place. How an advertising agency
did operated back in 1960s and how did the employees and clients were treated
and business was conducted. I can relate so much of it to today’s businesses
and still I get amused with each episode. Secondly the historical accuracy of
people, environment, technology, literature, habits, entertainment, fashion,
transport, views, attitudes etc etc that runs under the main plot. This is the
life of 60s USA and presented with details for us to fathom it. Thirdly the
plot and the script that works so well hand in hand just bring the best. The
story is dramatic and fantastic. It puts twist over twists but still doesn’t
distract you or confuse you and flow like a calm river in each episode. And
then the wonderful cast and their contribution to make this magnificent series
go live. Don Draper steals the whole pot while the rest adds the heat and spice
to boil the soup. Without those strong performers this show will not go
anywhere.
It is unfair to write few lines and rate this show in
a jiffy. Yet words can say so much but experiencing it is the best deal. Mad
Men is one of a kind show that makes TV a place in heaven amongst the crappy
shows that rules it. This is nothing else that terrific and genius. Long Live
Mad Men!!
5/5
