Despite the fact that Mad Men was set in the 1960’s, the show’s relevance, or rather the relevance of its subject matter feels fresher than ever. Anyone who currently works in an agency, or has worked in one, will undoubtedly draw parallels to the ins and outs of their own daily realities.

Many of you reading this article can remember a time before the internet.
