Brian D @Brianwd2 Jul 13, 2026 87%. 6/3/26. Favorite season. Show moves more out of office in the second season. Don is hooking up with the wife of the tv actor and he has a convo with Betty about it. Betty then confronts Don and kicks him out. Betty gets pregnant again to end the season. They incorporate the Cuban Missile crisis and Marilyn Monroe dying. Peggy's family is taking care of her and Pete's son. Great season. 5/5 rewatch See more Tristan B @tristan3 Jun 17, 2026 [BOT] Comfort watch every single time. See more Eva B @RT48515266 Jan 17, 2026 he series is growing on me. Everyone’s acting is amazing, and there were some really spectacular and meaningful scenes. It’s still a little slow for my taste, but overall it’s great. See more Test T @TestTest1 Dec 26, 2025 I've recently started watching this on DVD. I've not seen season 1, so I'm finding it difficult to get up to speed with the characters. My first thoughts are that it's a quality show with an interesting story to tell about life in the american advertising agencies. The story lines are engaging and the historical social context is fascinating. That said, the audio quality seems below par and I'm finding myself fiddling with my amp setting to try and improve it, which is dissappointing. I will continue to watch and see how it goes, but for now it's certainly got my attention and shows promise. See more Darla D @Darlad Jul 16, 2025 A bit interesting for young people who have no life experience and wonder what the business world MIGHT have been like in the 1960's, although not an accurate portrayal. For example, not everyone really smoked and drank like the characters do; only 1 in about 10 people, and very few people actually drank alcohol during the day at the office; that would have been reserved for a rare occasion. The stories of the many characters take FOREVER to play out and not too extraordinary, and so unbelievable, such as what does a pregnant secretary do to avoid anyone finding out she is pregnant and eventually had a child, all the while not even knowing she was pregnant, and no one mentioning or noticing, she just thought she was gaining weight and felt ashamed about it. Even her coworkers didn't know she was pregnant. What??? Overall, the plots are VERY repetitive, as the main character is a lothario sex addict and master manipulator and liar. Many of the characters are ordinary, flawed and shallow, most unethical and dishonest in many arenas of their life, backstabbing, cheaters, selfish ethics. This series is not a morally uplifting or happy series. Also, each episode has incomplete storylines so that you are forced to watch the entire season to know what is going to happen. If anyone has 7 seasons and unlimited time (like not employed and bored out of their minds) to watch, it will NOT leave you feeling inspired. Not sure why the good reviews. This series I am sad to say is for people that have no life and live vicariously through watching others, very similar to the old style soap box operas, better filming but just as weak. See more Joe W @YourNameIsJeff Feb 9, 2025 Can’t tell much difference from first season. It’s just a fake reality tv show documenting a whole “not much”, background noise. Most of the characters could vanish and I wouldn’t care. There’s very little character development and their stories land somewhere between bland and lukewarm. See more Read all reviews
