I am watching Mad Men on Netflix

[LawDeeDah]

11. I know what you mean.

I am sure there are a lot of men watching the show and hoping for those good ole days to be back and make snide jokes about it. You see on one of the quotes from Hamm the actor that some men Want to be like Draper.

That is how I felt at first - Is this supposed to be a history lesson of sorts, or is this just wallowing in that wonderful past where men, white straight men, considered themselves masters of the universe. The coming up with the slogan for the Jaguar account was especially hard hitting and nauseous. Knowing more about Hamm the producer/actor, I know this is a look back to the rotten times with the shiney facade but it will not be taken as education by the impossibly stunned and dense.

But I carry on -- there is Sally to watch, for one thing. She is a great actress and a bit of a balance to all the mysogynistic circle jerking. Joanie is a heroine with her strength and grace and wisdom.
