Mad Men Episode

I watched last weeks' episode of Mad Men which received an Emmy for best drama. Don and Betty Draper had their baby, they named it Eugene/Gene after Betty dead father. They showed child birth in the 60's, how the woman is given Demerol, no one is in the room with her, except a mean nurse who is not compassionate. I guess in the 60's the man or family was not in the delivery room

The Brits, who bought the advertising firm where penny pinching, talking about a few dollars in expenses, Don Draper told them to chill out and let the sales team sell. Duck Phillips also called Peggy Olson and Pete to try to recruit them to his new firm.At first Pete did not seem excited about the idea, but he seemed to get annoyed in the way he was treated regarding an interesting development. Pete had a client who sold Television, he noticed sales were flat but in the African American community sales were rising, Pete tried to get the company to increase sales in Ebony and other African American advertising mediums, but everyone got mad at Pete for mentioning it, it's funny how 1 year late 1964 the civil rights act will pass. It is just an amazing show because you look back into history. They are currently in 1963 pretty close to the day JFK was shot.

They are also developing the character of Sally, who is Don Drapers daughter, I assume she is going to be a hippy and rebel against the 1960's. Peggy also asked Don for equal pay, and he told her now is not a good time. Peggy is struggling with sexual barriers and trying to break the male only barriers.
