Summary
Set in 1960's New York City, Mad men explores the glamorous and ego-driven "Golden age" of advertising, where everyone is selling something and nothing is ever what it seems. And no one plays the game better than Don Draper, Madison Avenue's biggest ad man, and ladies' man, in the business.Additional Information
