Have some of you older folks around here seen Mad Men? It's set in the 60s and gives viewers a glimpse of the prevailing attitudes towards many issues as well as reactions to many of the events occurring at that time.
Of course nothing can actually compare with living through those times but I really love shows that provide us a window so that we can get a glimpse of the past through the eyes of ordinary people.

My only beef about some of these "period" pieces is that they stretch things. I was born in the 60's and grew up in the 70's, remember That 70's show? They emphasized sex way more than it happened. I'm pretty sure the average office wasn't like that in Made Men neither (sex, sex, sex)...at least that's what my dad said...so once again it's just Hollywood trying to sell to people with sex.
