A Rant On Mad Men

I am trying really hard to like the show Mad Men.  Everyone else does, so I should too, right?  I hate it.  I appreciate the research that has gone into recreating that era.  I appreciate the history of specific advertising campaigns told through the stories in the show.  I appreciate the style and costumes.  But, working in advertising makes me feel dirty after watching that show.  I have no appreciation for the business after watching arrogant men push each other around and demean women each week.  While that may have been the culture during that period in history, I worry that it will give modern-day viewers the wrong impression of our business today.
