Mad Men: Season 2 (2008) - 9/10

I've been watchin the second season of Mad Men with director commentary to get ready for the start of the 3rd season and have to say, this show is excellent. With amazing costumes and characters straight out of the past, the production design and dialogue is great in the advertising agency as well as in the homes of all these trouble people. The director and writers are hilarious on the commentaries telling us how they can't make these beautiful people look bad but still try, and how their choice of music to end the different episodes all makes a different to how they want the audience to feel. Showing adultry, racism, sexism, and harrassment as just another day in the office, Mad Men is one of the most fascinating character studies on AMC and TV for that matter and I can't wait to see what they come up with next.
