Mad Men

I'm so glad that a new season of "Mad Men" has started! It's been three episodes so far and I'm totally into it. And the best part is that there aren't a ton of commercials (except for those annoying Apple Face Time commercials that have been playing non-stop lately) and the first commercial isn't until 15 minutes in. This really allows the viewer to get involved with the story rather than cutting to commercial after the first five minutes. But besides that, It's picked up right where the last season left off and you're not left wondering what's going on or where a certain storyline went. The thing I love most, besides watching Don Draper self destruct, is that it takes place in the early 60's, so the sets, the clothes and the whole culture is just fascinating to watch. I can't wait to see what Joanie wears each day! It's great to actually have a real show to watch with talented people and writers rather than the crappy reality shows that make people famous for either being a bitch, drunk, crazy or fat. I do tend to get sucked into watching those shows as well, but if there were more shows like Mad Men on TV the world might be a better place.
