Imitation Mad Men?
I have been reading lately about two new TV shows set to start this summer or in the fall....."PanAm" and "The Playboy Club", both set in the 60s. I am thinking both these shows were only created to take advantage of Mad Men's popularity. Mad Men, of course, has already been there and done that when it comes to stewardesses and bunnies......can these shows deliver story lines to equal Mad Men's? Guess we'll see. I am planning to watch both shows, if only to see how they compare to Mad Men when it comes to the costumes and attention to period detail. Woe unto them if they don't measure up.....I am sure they will be hearing from disgruntled viewers aplenty. There are still Maddicts not convinced about the whole pantyhose issue. Think either of these shows will feature an icy blonde and/or a gorgeous redhead? I'm betting there will be an innocent young woman who will need to be shown how to serve drinks with a "coffee, tea or me" smile or while doing the "bunny dip." Surely there will be a "Joan" eager to give her advice. Since we Maddicts will have to wait ......OW! it gives me a pain to have to say this.....another year for our Mad Men fix, watching two new shows set in the same time period may help us through the dark time? Gee, do you think there will be lots of alcohol, sex and cigarettes?
