Live-Blogging Nixon (And Other Cultural Icons)

Live-blogging of AMC's stylish but empty Mad Men returns to newcritics.com tonight, with yours truly as the host. Previews show two central topics: sex and Richard Milhous Nixon. There's a perversity about the show that's appealing, but I'm afraid cultural accuracy isn't really its strong suit. It's very 2007, very semi-dark, very Weimer under Eisenhowerish - pure fantasy, and nothing like 1960 at all. Still, good crowd around the virtual punchbowl every Thursday. Better dialogue there. Tune in at 10, EDT at newcritics.
