That was beautiful, sake beautiful.
Ok. I'm going to finally watch Mad Men. I've watched seasonal one. I couldn't stick with it for some reason. I'm watching the last episode of season one.
It's a very slow burner. You have to commit. It's not like Breaking Bad where there is a clear plot and an end in mind all sorts of intense moments and what not. Mad Men is more subtle. It's basically a period piece so part of the allure is seeing the changing of the decade. But it takes more time to get into than Breaking Bad.
Also King is not a classy man so we cannot trust his opinion on classy television shows.
The blatant sexism made it hard for me to watch Mad Men.
But thats whats so good about it - it is a historically accurate representation of how things were. the fact it is shocking shows how far we have come as a society. You cant watch 12 years a slave and get put of by the slavery!
Comments like "the man who invented it made it simple enough for women to use" made by a woman are how things were!
The racism, the misogyny, the work place drinking, the smoking, the clothes, the music - its just awesome!
