Mad Men, a first look

Vanity Fair

I love the style and seduction that the show girls of older times used. The slow way they would take off a glove, finger tip by finger tip. Absolutely gorgeous. I love the classic style, the curves, the simple things that women did to rile people up. It had to be a little more subtle, otherwise they wouldn't be considered even slightly classy.

I'm not impressed by the way kids are running around with plastic bags over their heads, being admonished for throwing the clothes on the floor. Then the pregnant woman smoking and drinking cup after cup of coffee while talking about a divorcee that moved in down the street and how it's going bring down the value of the houses.

This is only my first watch but I feel angry and intrigued at the same time.
