don-draper, in episode 13 of mad-menfirst season, talks about a general longing for "the good-old-days," saying, "Nostalgia. It's delicate, but potent... It's a twinge in your heart, far more powerful than memory alone." In Mad Men- set in the 1960s - the fashion, the cars, the advertisements and the products bring us back to those good old days. At the same time, the show's underlying racism and sexism, the heavy smoking and the disregard for the environment are all there to remind us that not everything that's old was necessarily good. AMC's Mad Men is a critic's favorite; it was one of the first two basic-cable shows (along with damages-tv-series) to be nominated for an Emmy in the best drama series category. Happy 32nd birthday to january-jones, the two-time golden-globe-awardsnominee for her performance as don-draperconflicted wife, betty-draper.
