[44] A
New York Times reviewer called the series groundbreaking for "luxuriating in the not-so-distant past."
[35] The
San Francisco Chronicle called
Mad Men "stylized, visually arresting […] an adult drama of introspection and the inconvenience of modernity in a man's world".
[13] A
Chicago Sun-Times reviewer described the series as an "unsentimental portrayal of complicated 'whole people' who act with the more decent 1960 manners America has lost, while also playing grab-ass and crassly defaming subordinates."
[45] The reaction at
Entertainment Weekly was similar, noting how in the period in which
Mad Men takes place, "play is part of work, sexual banter isn't yet harassment, and America is free of self-doubt, guilt, and countercultural confusion."
[46] The
Los Angeles Times said that the show had found "a strange and lovely space between nostalgia and political correctness".
[47] The show also received critical praise for its historical accuracy – mainly its depictions of gender and racial bias, sexual dynamics in the workplace, and the high prevalence of smoking and drinking.
