Any fans? My favorite show of the new decade (I've got Westwood and Battlestar Galactica lined up on netflix though), it's got everything. Production values, beautiful cinematography, great acting, nostalgic yet topical, deeply personal yet tackles some of the biggest issues of our time, the least of which is feminism. And, of course, it's the best written show on television. Advertising is based on one thing...

I really enjoyed the first 10 episodes or so, but I felt that it never really went anywhere, and kind of stalled. I never finished the second season, got caught up in Carnivale instead.

It goes somewhere plot wise, don't worry, but that's really not the point...To each their own of course.

Watching the first series.It's brilliant.

And Jon Hamm is one sexy beast...Born and raised in the greatest city on the planet, St. Louis.

I really had no interest in this show up until this year when I was bored and decided to watch the first episode on Netflix. I've now blasted through all 4 seasons and have caught up on the 5th...just in time for next week's finale.

I'm amazed at the attention to detail they have for all things 60's and how they tie in a lot of historic events and how they impact the characters' lives.

I keep on meaning to check this show out but something always stops me from doing it. I have a feeling I won't like it. Is it just like a glorified period drama? How much can they do without someone getting murdered every so often to keep the suspense? :P

Well, it's definitely a period drama, but it's one of the better ones out there. If you like any period dramas at all you should like it. It's also a very character based show...in my spoiler tags I mentioned it started dragging during the last season and a half but the last episode was pretty ****ing intense. It's been sticking with me all week. If you don't like it after 2 or 3 episodes, though, I doubt you ever will. You should definitely give it a chance, though.

Love it to bits, possibly the best TV series I've ever seen :bowdown:

TAPATALK SPOILERS!!!!!! ****ING HELL!!!!!!

I shall drink to forget.
