The series reveals very little about the actual work of advertising, as it is very character driven, but the art direction recreates the looks and feel of the 60s very well. Almost as good as the real thing.Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722776449751131260.post-61977457887493225762013-10-27T11:54:06.049-07:002013-10-27T11:54:06.049-07:00I’m very glad you posted this as I first time arou...I’m very glad you posted this as I first time around was before I took part in Sepia Saturday and I would hate to have missed that big hair!

Not much work got done on Friday afternoon. Maybe it went on in the executives offices at other times but I didn't see it. I'm pretty sure there was no real sex. The offices had big windows so not much privacy.
