For them image is all - lives full of show, emotions so brittle (liver and lungs probably impaired). From the first episode through the final credits of the season, ‘Mad Men’s colors are naturally saturated, contrast is comfortable and strong, and shadows are deep and well-delineated. Alas, her success is overshadowed as the other secretaries and executives begin to undermine her authority and question her talent, motives, and determination. The archaic attitudes as to how men and women are expected to behave, and how certain behaviours are deemed acceptable, whether rightly or wrongly, are laugh out loud funny.

There are hours of behind-the-scenes footage, cast and crew interviews, and insightful commentaries from creator Matthew Weiner.Best of all, the transfer doesn’t suffer from any distracting noise, banding, or post-production garbage (like DNR or edge enhancement).

Weiner doesn’t pull any punches, exposing the show’s fictional firm for what it is -- an impenetrable boys’ club whose existence is fueled by other successful boys’ clubs. Women are often insatiably dissatisfied and repressed, yet thrive off the pampered, lavish existence of 'being married to a rich guy'. While it does inject some healthy weight into the actors’ voices and the series’ music, it doesn’t pack enough punch to make this release memorable.broadcast aspect ratio and encoded in 1080p/24 Full HD using the AVC codec and locked with Region B coding. Plenty of interviews are included and the cameras are granted a rather revealing glimpse of the production team pulling together each episode of the show. I emerged from it all with reactions unexpected - the bonuses having proved far more absorbing than the show itself. A man's world this, those portrayed determined to exploit to the full The American Dream - their profession dedicated to convincing the gullible affluent they cannot do without the products so flamboyantly advertised. Yes, the series’ pacing and subject matter may not be everyone’s flavor, but solid writing and stunning performances help this one stand out from the crowd.

On top of that, there's also four hours worth of never-before-seen bonus material, a sit-down with creator Matthew Weiner, two lowball tumblers and four coasters. Totally unexpected and delightful comes a declaration of life's greatest assets - a concept totally removed from the materialism dominating hitherto.

If I could muster a complaint about anything, I would point to the fact that a few commentaries have momentary gaps of silence.Imagine you’re an AMC network executive tasked with ushering your company into the lucrative market of original scripted drama series.

At the back of the volume are a bundle of 'extras' - including photos, letter-headed paper, a detailed guide to the show, a map of the office, and a host of other titbits. That said there is always just enough to keep you tuned in, and just when you feel you don't want to care about the characters anymore, they deliver just enough to peak your interest. Everything is housed in a sturdy and attractive slip-case; and within that is a large hardback 'volume'. The show delves into the complex and often dark world of advertising in the 1960s, while also exploring the personal lives and struggles of the characters.Presenting an ego-driven world of clashing personalities, there is a whole assortment of dramatisation and well-acted scenes for you to sink your teeth into. His assertion seems to be that advertisers don’t care for your well-being any more than the companies they represent. The box set is beautifully designed, with a sleek and minimalist look that is reminiscent of the 1960s era that the show is set in.
