Celebration
On his 80th birthday, media magnate Logan Roy – whose imminent retirement was thought to be a given – shocks his family by announcing he’s staying on indefinitely as CEO of Waystar Royco. The news shatters his son, Kendall, the heir apparent, who’s in the midst of negotiating the purchase of a digital-media venture founded by a slick operator. After an impromptu softball game, tempers flare as Logan’s other children – Roman, Shiv and Connor – raise objections over Logan’s intentions, including his desire to change the way his eventual successor will be chosen.
Step back in time to the glamorous and high-pressured world of 1960s New York advertising with 'Mad Men', an American period drama that captivates audiences with its intricate storytelling, compelling characters, and stunning historical authenticity. With seven seasons and 95 episodes, 'Mad Men' offers a richly layered narrative that keeps viewers hooked from start to end.
The series is centered around alpha male Don Draper, played by Jon Hamm, who masterfully navigates the cutthroat Madison Avenue advertising firms while balancing his duties as a family man. Alongside Hamm's outstanding performance are strong supporting roles portrayed by talented actors like Elisabeth Moss, Vincent Kartheiser, January Jones, Christina Hendricks among others. Each character brings their unique flavor to the story, contributing to its overall depth and complexity.
'Mad Men' begins at the fictional Sterling Cooper advertising agency where we get a glimpse into Don Draper’s professional life and personal struggles. The story later shifts focus to the newly-formed firm - Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce which adds another layer of intrigue and suspense to this already riveting drama.
