    Well...Mad Men was pretty good.  I started as a stenographer in 1959...and my clothes were well represented in Mad Men's ongoing seasons.

    I loved Mad Men!  I grew up in the 70s and totally related to the clothing selections on MM.

    People just seem to forget about the space race and the moon landing.  Sad.

    James had finished university when the series began, so 1958 would be 6 years later, making him 27 or 28. As to George and Regina, divorce would depend on the law at the time. Don't think Australia had modernized its divorce laws then, any more than in the U.S. (that didn't come until the 1960s) and it would also likely depend on if Regina had been tried and convicted on any criminal charges. Both might be difficult if she were still under institutional care for mental illness.

    i agree with you, TheSchnauzers.

    also, a storyline set in 1958 might be more interesting than one set in 1954.

    Last season, Anna's hair and clothing was visibly updated in order to become more adult.  

    Hopefully, the show should benefit from their ideas!

     

    On a different note, Regina looks awful in the picture on the Foxtel page!  Woah!

    Did anyone else wonder what prompted The Whoopster to go on her preachy/rant about how hard it was for the black people to get the vote & everyone must recognize their responsibility to get out and vote.  She burned five minutes of my daylight saying something that's been said many times before on this show.

    I applaud her for using her position for this purpose.

     I see James Carville on a lot of TV panels but not Mary Matalin. Last I heard, she had changed her party registration to Libertarian but was still describing herself as "provisional Trump" and "never Hillary." Has she opted out of the political limelight now?

    She was on "This Week" this past weekend.
