Another article about mad men:

Is there anyone else as excited about this show as I am? AMC has picked up 13 episodes of a new series titled Mad Men, which will focus on the lives and careers of advertising execs in 1960 New York City.
This sounds fantastic! Of course, we'll have to wait and see how the writing, direction, stories, etc are, but this sounds like a really cool idea for a drama. Or maybe it's just that I'm a sucker for anything filmed or set in New York City in the 1950s or 60s.
It's not everyday that any network picks up a show that is a period piece, something set 30, 40, 50 years ago or more, something almost retro. But I'm really looking forward to this. It will star Jon Hamm, January Jones, Elizabeth Moss (The West Wing), Vincent Kartheiser, and John Slattery (Ed) and was created by and written by The Sopranos' Matt Weiner.
