That is all…
There also used to be a cartoon called ‘Angry Beavers’. LOL
This is a show that really “gets it”, when it comes to taking you back and placing you and your thoughts in a different generation. I’m a bit late to the party and have only been watching for the last month, so I began renting the original series from 6 years ago on Netflix. Very well done, and very good props and attire, etc. It just oozes the 60s. People have class. Decor is all made in America when people took pride in their work. Cars are too… It inspires me to get out and drive the Cougars, if nothing else!
Everyone smokes in the office, the train, in restaurants…everywhere. And cocktails are out and waiting on the office credenza, ready for 4:30 or any “nervous moment”. Secretarial pools, phone switchboard centers, typewriters everywhere…
In addition to wanting to drive the Cougar, I also want to wear thick black glasses, a skinny tie and black slacks, and have a drawer full of pressed and starched white shirts in my desk drawer, lol!
If you have any spare time and want to be inspired, go back in time, or really “feel” yourself in your car, I highly recommend the show. I obviously was born about 25 years too late, sigh…
My wife and I gave this show a chance since all our friends were raving about it a couple years ago. We streamed it on Netflix and made it through the first two seasons before giving up.
We did like the aesthetics. But found the show empty. Guys are all alcoholic womanizing d-bags, women get no respect but do most of the real work, everyone smokes, and that’s about all we found in it aside from cool aesthetics. It is definitely a show that promotes alcoholism, lol. It wasn’t just us, our friends were in agreement and mostly all the same way, that watching the show makes one want to sit and drink hard liquor all the time. That’s just about all they do, drink hard liquor all day every day. Which, from what I have heard from friends who work in advertising, is totally accurate and still how it works today. 
The real deal-breaker for my wife was that they work at an advertising agency that’s supposed to be a big deal, but none of the ads they came up with (at least during those first two seasons) were very clever. It was less of a problem for me, but she was really bothered by the unskilled writing in that regard.
It really does do an excellent job of recreating the vibe of a time gone past. But other than that, there isn’t so much to it. Maybe it gets better after the second season, but with so many good tv shows out there, we didn’t bother giving it any more of our time.
Same as tmh. Love the vibe and time period. But after the second season or so I gave up. But loved it up till then ha.
Those of us who lived in that era can relate to it especially the smoking and drinking. I’m just a little to young to relate to the “free sex aspect and lifestyle”
