In Rolling Stone's summer cable TV preview section   Mad Men's creator and Executive Producer Matthew Weiner revealed that the second season of Mad Men will pick up in 1962 rather than continuing from where Season 1 left off on Thanksgiving of 1960. Weiner explained, "I wanted to show what it was like to have the world change around you, you watch life pass and you're the same person inside."

The decision to move ahead to 1962 places the action of the show directly into one of the most exciting time periods in American history. Test your knowledge of 1962's politics, movies, and pop culture with our new 1962 Trivia Quiz.

This era has never been analyzed quite as meticulously as Matt Weiner has done here.

His fascinating take on the Sixties zeitgeist, and his focus on the quirkier and more controversial aspects is what makes Mad Men so mesmerizing.

It seems like a big loss for him of all people to rush through this decade.....
