A few episodes in the middle (Babylon, The Hobo Code) were quite good as the burgeoning counterculture crept in, but the first three you have to force yourself to watch the same way as if you were standing guard or something, and the last three weren't much better. We live in an age where the standards for television are higher than the standards for feature film are, and as such, I can't go along with all the rave reviews here. The pacing is off, the plot points seem a bit disorganized, and the acting leaves some to be desired. Go ahead and watch it though, after all.....it won an EMMY......lol Rating:  - I love the flawsOK, the CD is just a recording of the show's first season. If you love the show, you'll like the CD. There is additional stuff like the actors' voice over perspective of episodes. But mostly it's the writing! Rating: - Awesome showNothing much to add to my title, this is just an awesome show. I was a little sad that my set came in a plain box rather than the pseudo-zippo case mentioned in other reviews. Rating: - CompellingThis is television at its most thoughtful. It is also exciting to see and hear such thoughtful commentary on *all* the episodes rather than just one or two [*Entourage*, any one?]. Rating: - Great tv showThis show restores my faith in television again. What a great show. It's not loud, demanding, or raunchy. It's sophisticated and subtle. Where a look or a glance is priceless, and sometimes the best line of the show is what is left unsaid. In many regards the sophistication of the character development reminds me of HBO's Deadwood. Of course Deadwood was set in American frontier times and Mad Men is set in 1960's Madison Avenue. Great show. A joy to watch and rewatch. |
