I liked this. Knowing and funny.

Good stuff

I don't watch Mad Men so I don't know how near the mark it is to the real thing?
But if its bang on the money then I wouldn't watch the show anyway because the dialogue is askew,if that helps?

Cheers, all.

I don't know that you'd get much out of it if you haven't seen the show, Terry, but thanks for reading anyway.

No problem I liked the book of hotel graffiti and the Tube Pole caper but this is more anoraky so it never did a thing for me.

This is pretty good, as it's in showcase I assume you don't want feedback.

You're welcome to chime in if you like, it's an ongoing project.

Ok well first of all he seems to be rather obviously stating the plot points from the TV series. With a little tweaking you could imply rather than state (but meh maybe the obviousness is the joke). Secondly could you progress the story a little more from blog to blog?
Also as they're quite similar and fairly long are you trying to catch ppassing traffic on the net?

But yeh they're good clever idea and the graphics are fantastically photoshopped. Also good ear for dialogue funny lines.

Thanks, Soots, I'll bear those points in mind when it comes time to write the next one.

Pleasure a good read which is more than can be said for most things on the internet.

But I know getting stuff to go viral is pretty damned tough.

This isn't very good Dave. It's also trying way too hard, which isn't like you.
