Mad Men: Season Four is definitely one that will keep you at the edge of your seat. The show continues to address many of the difficult issues of the 1960's in a very sensitive and smart way. The two that are addressed most prominently are smoking and racism. Smoking is addressed and dealt with in terms of the account management at the agency. I won't spoil the episodes but suffice it to say there is a good episode where they are forced to determine what sort of clients they represent moving forward. In terms of racism, this is addressed throughout but most prominently towards the end by Betty and her housekeeper of many years.
The new firm goes through many ups and downs in this season. They celebrate some successes together and definitely many failures--some of which take them right to edge of the cliff. To see if they fall over it, you'll have to watch the season and find out. Also a huge surprise with Don at the end you won't want to miss.
