Does Anyone Watch "Mad Men" on AMC?

<p>I've just started catching up on past episodes. Great writing btw...</p>

<p>In the final episode of Season 1 ("The Wheel"), <strong><em>spoiler alert</em></strong> :: it is revealed that the character, Peter Campbell, the young ambitious (spoiled) conniving guy is a graduate of Deerfield.</p>

<p>The guy is such a loathsome character -- I don't know, it just kind of struck me that as a graduate of an elite prep school myself -- when your average person hears that you've "gone to prep school" does the image of a "Peter Campbell" come rushing in?</p>

<p>It almost makes me think twice about sending my own kid to prep school...</p>

<p>One will seldom hear or gain anything positive about a private school much less a boarding school when it comes from tv land and the alleged media elite.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Granted… but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t art imitating life…</p>

<p>TV is art?</p>

<p>I think it was season 2, when Duckie (was that his name–the new head of accounts who had the alcohol problem) briefly mentioned that his son was at St. Paul’s.</p>

<p>Best show on TV now!</p>

<p>I really like Mad Men. Everything is so perfectly matched to the time period- the costumes, props, everything. The costumes are really fun :-)</p>
