Mad Men Binge


     While I am getting used to my new hip (thanks to Lexington Medical Center and Lexington Orthopedics), I continue binge-watching Mad Men  on Netflix. Earlier I saw the middle part, but now I started from the beginning snd now am in the middle of Season 5.

      Well-written and -acted, most of the characters appall me. While I am not prude, I am appalled by the behavior, attitudes, and phoniness of most of the cast.There is no check on their morality, ethics, or libidos.
Sadly, I do not think we have learned a whole lot from those times.

       This song from the era keeps playing in my head.
