Whether lines like these would actually work in real life, or whether they'd get you slapped--we'll leave that up to you to find out for yourself.

Great video, but how could you make a montage of pick-up lines and leave out the two Italians at the Hilton cafe in Rome?? (Season 3, Episode 8)

Probably worried about the legibility of the subtitles in the smaller format of YT. IIRC, they spoke in Italian, Betty responded in kind.

The best line in the show, "The reason you haven't felt it is because it doesn't exist. What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons. You're born alone and you die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget those facts. But I never forget. I'm living like there's no tomorrow, because there isn't one."

The sleazy work atmosphere at Sterling Cooper may have been typical of Madison Avenue ad agencies in the 60s, but it wasn't typical of business in general. It's a TV show, people.

My Dad was a business executive in the 60s, and his office was a very conservati­ve place. Making passes at the office "girls", telling dirty jokes - this sort of thing was not cool. In fact, it could get you fired. Drinking at work was definitely a firing offense.

A friend of my Dad's worked as a senior engineer in the office of a mining company. He had an affair with another woman, who didn't work for the company. His wife found out, started divorce proceeding­s, and told his boss. He was fired. At the time, this wasn't unusual.

As someone who grew up during the 60's I am crazy about Mad Men. Started watching it this season and went to the library and rented the first 2 seasons to catch up. Remember it well. I was told when I took my first job at the phone company that if my husband disapprove­d that I would be expected to give up my job. That women who were operators were paid $5.00 less per week than men--and we had a union contract!!­! Remember the Cuban Missile Crisis and how we all expected "duck and cover" and survive a nuclear bomb. And the day that Kennedy was assassinat­ed was one of the darkest days of my life--my family having worked in his campaign--­hearing word over the intercom..­.the utter silence...­except for the sobs...the slamming of lockers...­my history teacher with her head on her desk crying...b­eing glued to the tv.
I lived it and cannot believe how accurate Matt Wiener has been in capturing the period. He is a genius.

I get it, but - my dad was one of those guys, and it was awful. The hair, the cigarettes­, the narcissism­. I'm sure the show's great in its way, but I give it a pass.

You should consider giving it a look. Most people have the erroneous idea that the culture is "praised." It's not--it's ... REVEALED. There are elements of the time that evoke nostalgia-­-the clothes, the music, the "cocktail culture," the postwar expanding economy and Ugly American sense of entitlemen­t, but this series isn't a Love Note with regard to the era. It is a STUDY of the times. You see women getting treated like crap by the boss-men, and you see their reactions and how they cope. It's instructiv­e. It's also very accurate. You might find understand­ing for your father's conduct--h­e was part of a rather pervasive culture, warts and all. Aren't we all products of our environmen­ts? It might help you understand why he was the way he was.

I think Mad Men is great in that it shows all the biases and contempt that men had toward women in the early '60's. The women are "girls" and constantly being sexually molested, openly and privately, all in the name of "fun".

The show brings out the times when the birth control pill was first released. Only married women, with the 'permissio­n' of their husbands could obtain a prescripti­on from their doctors for it. They had no control over their own bodies, much like the agenda that the anti-choic­e crowd is pushing today.

Mad Men tell the story with no apologies or comments to let us see what the real world was like a generation ago. Some of us will see it. Others won't.

I also agree with others that the "WIRE" was one of the best shows, along with "6 FEET UNDER" and the "SOPRANOS"­. Adriana stole the show in every scene she was in.

You don't understand the allure because it isn't alluring to you. No one explain a connection to a thing in a way that will make that feeling contagious­. I also think the expectatio­n that people are supposed to somehow justify the enjoyment or try to find ways to persuade you to like it is, well, it takes cajones. Go enjoy YOUR thing, whatever that is.

The desire to understand something is audacious and offensive to you? What I was able to glean about MAD MEN is that it's jacking into the same general themes of chafing against enforced leisure and consumeris­m for its own sake that DAY OF THE LOCUST and FIGHT CLUB dealt with. The older guys are adrenaline junkies long before the term was invented who self-medic­ate against the boredom they created for themselves after World War Two and Korea with hard drinking, chain-smok­ing and serial womanizing because they have no new worlds to conquer, and the younger guys are doing the same because they have no other barometer for assessing manhood. What are you seeing in it that I'm not?

You know, someone told me that I should watch Mad Men to see how men today has "evolved" from the men depicted in that show. I hate to say this, but men still think that way. We just aren't up front with it! Just yesterday, this guy who was on the bus with me watched this attractive young girl that was wearing these tight sweatpants that revealed her bottom walking off the bus. This guy couldn't help but mutter "Mmmph, mmmph!", like he was looking to eat his favorite food! Then he looked at me as if to say, YOU KNOW YOU AGREE WITH ME ON THAT". Sadly, yes I did agree, but I didn't wanted to be obvious, so I tried not to stare at her too long. So yes, men are pigs, we KNOW that we are pigs and bad news, we try to hide that fact just enough so women could be fooled enough to "get with us". Maybe we stop being pigs when we get a steady GF or wife, or maybe we don't.

I don't mind you all being pigs (heck, I kinda like it), as long as you're pigs in a faithful kinda way.

We are trying to stay away from Mel Gibson. Mel is in the eternal doghouse and he'll never be freed! Heck that Whoopi Goldberg, "He's my friend" comment. I DON'T KNOW MEL! HAVEN'T SEEN ANY OF HIS MOVIES! (LOL)

Anyone else think Vincent Karheiser (I had to look him up; I don't watch Mad Men) looks a lot like Disney's Tommy Kirk from "Old Yeller", etal?
05:20 PM on 07/18/2010
Yes, he does now that you mention it.

Tommy Kirk was one of the most popular actors at the Disney studio - until Walt Disney found out he was in a relationsh­ip with a teenaged boy and personally fired him in 1963. Kirk was 22. He came back to the studio to shoot 'The Monkey's Uncle', the sequel to 'Merlin Jones', but his career was pretty much done.

Which is pretty funny considerin­g that behind the camera, the Maus Haus has been, from time to time, known as the gayest studio in the industry. Not at this time, though, the big-eared one is going through a Mormon phase...
05:05 PM on 09/07/2010
Ha!! What irony! I always thought "Uncle Walt" was the sort of guy you didn't want to leave your ten your old son alone with....he just came across that way, with that sleazy little moustache and that "too easy" style...

I was there. Pick up lines were usually delivered by "older" women.
I never saw alcohol stored or consumed in offices like they show on "Mad Men".
However, executives would take us out to get sloshed at 4 hour lunches.
While sitting there in a dark restaurant­, I wondered about all those vital jobs that were being neglected back at my desk. It was then that I first learned about "the phony f_______ deadline".
05:08 PM on 09/07/2010
Only senior execs--the ones with their own secretarie­s-- had wet bars. Middle management kept a bottle in their right lower drawer and usually waited until the end of the day to have a pop, unless it was a special occasion.

Someone should redo the clip with "What would Mel say?" voiceovers­.

Mel is only saying what Jesus would.

Classic. I remember once some guy (in a bar...yeah­..I was at this bar) asked me where I had been all of his life and I asked him, "Who writes your material?"­... And another person once asked me if they had seen me at Mardi Gras and I said, "No, I don't remember being there, but can you tell me...did I have a good time?" Well anyway....

lol. Very creative come back. Regarding your latest comment on Mad Men's allure, I guess it is all about the "essence" of the Sixties and the ensuing attention to nostalgic detail that gets us going when we watch the show (whenever we get the chance). For the same reason (and I can respect your questionin­g the allure) that my husband and I never quite understand when everybody "wets their pants" at yet another crime show spin off. But then again, it's all subjective to personal taste and timing.
