Rating: - It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This
Totally absorbing, consuming and full of visual candy of all sorts. This show is a symphony of perfect pitch in every sense.

So buy it you won't be sorry...but zippo ... Read More
Rating: - One of the finest series on television
MAD MEN is one of those series that is almost impossible to praise too highly. It is also one of those series that puts on display the inherent superiority of television to the movies. That is a sentiment that I find offends many, but one that more and more thinking men and women are coming to embrace as television gradually turns out one amazingly intelligent series after another. Cinema is inherently limited on how much an individual movie can achieve in developing a complex narrative just as it is limited in how deeply it can explore character. The reason is obvious: a lack of time. Delving ... Read More
