Description

I emerged from it all with reactions unexpected - the bonuses having proved far more absorbing than the show itself. We also sell a wide range of refurbished Mobile Phones and Tech from major brands like Apple, Samsung, Sony, Microsoft and much more. Totally unexpected and delightful comes a declaration of life's greatest assets - a concept totally removed from the materialism dominating hitherto. There are hours of behind-the-scenes footage, cast and crew interviews, and insightful commentaries from creator Matthew Weiner. Business executives were WASPs, housewives were the naïve property of their husbands, and working women were secretaries, sex objects, and office play things.

Aside from the detail on display, the colours are natural, the blacks deep and the images free of any crush or clipping. Associated bling and tat ain't for everyone, but if it's a show I love then the more the better for me.Yes, the series’ pacing and subject matter may not be everyone’s flavor, but solid writing and stunning performances help this one stand out from the crowd. However, Weiner runs out of steam in between, allowing a handful of soap-opera-esque subplots to sneak into the script and destabilize some of the series’ more impressive accomplishments. This is more out of incredulity of the situations that are cleverly portrayed by the brilliant casting.

Any true substance is confined to the bonuses - the moving tribute to forgotten freedom fighter Medgar Evers; in full, Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech; the lid off how the tobacco industry promoted a habit increasingly recognized as so harmful; the part advertising played in the 1964 Johnson-Goldwater Presidential campaigns: women seeking a fair deal in the workplace. Still, ‘Mad Men’ works overwhelmingly well as a remarkably-detailed period drama, a fascinating glimpse into the birth of modern corporate culture, and a tragic study of manipulation and greed. The box set is beautifully designed, with a sleek and minimalist look that is reminiscent of the 1960s era that the show is set in.

Season 6 episodes are: 'The Doorway: Part 1', 'The Doorway: Part 2', 'Collaborators', 'To Have and to Hold', 'The Flood', 'For Immediate Release', 'Man With a Plan', 'The Crash', 'The Better Half', 'A Tale of Two Cities', 'Favors', 'The Quality of Mercy' and 'In Care Of'. The chatter of crowd noises in bars, the buzz of the office and the traffic in the street create a real sense of environment and ambience. At the heart of the series is Don Draper, played by John Hamm, who provides a degree of mystery, whilst surrounded by an excellent cast of ensemble players who all totally inhabit their roles.

MAD MEN helps us to see beyond the hype, encourages us to be more aware about tactics employed by advertisers.The series’ warm palette holds up exceedingly well in spite of a variety of interior and exterior lighting schemes, allowing the characters’ yellow-hued homes to look every bit as good as the firm’s brightly lit offices. Following the escapades of the Sterling Cooper advertising agency, join the womanising, hard-drinking, chain-smoking Don Draper (played by the charismatic Jon Hamm), and immerse yourself in his life both personal and professional as you discover the ruthless competitiveness of this dog-eat-dog business world.
