mad men

i LOVE this show. i watched all of the available episodes. it's on amc of all channels. i find it hard to describe but marcia g. yerman did a darn good job in the following article. (it was on demand, that's how i watched it. however, i don't know if the season of episodes is over or what. it's no longer on demand).
it DOES show racism, sexism, anti-semitism and everything in between. yet the show is NONE of these things. it makes you cringe and draws you in at the very same time
