As far as I've read in the threads, I haven't seen a mention about the brilliant music.
Somebody well-versed with American radio hits and all, please post a list of tracks used in the series. Or maybe the best ones?
That Espanol piece, especially:

Nerd,
Point was to make sense of it all How MM's fabric works and how BB works. 'Far Away Places' is all kinds of awesome in terms of shifts and visual pleasures (both aspects BB have loads to offer, in its tour-de-force exponential arc. So when you don't pay attention to the graph in beginning, then you'd never catch it. so yes in a way, it requires one to 'care for' in its muted beginnings, when processed fully reveals that it's not muted at all.), but again very much part of the fabric I'm reluctant to mindlessly adulate, it deserves that pause and guarded appreciation. Because here again, the style is aestheticized, this unified mode of stylistics appreciated (mine included for the standards being maintained), but it doesn't work for the thematics. And liberating of Peggy (the only real feminine point of interest for me, considering the rest are all coordinated to the coda) is turned in to pleasing of the stranger. But of course, in every negation of the act, there's a pleasing in a more 'empowering' kind of way, but again, is this to say she's actually a repressed being. Roger's and Drapper's could be framed into Sathya_1979's 'system is functioning as expected'. So yes, I'd continue to shoehorn it into a problematic style in both visual, narrative and thematic choices. What interests me here, is apart from the obvious parallels in contrasts (for story telling), is in the documentary aspects. Mapping of the LSD experience to class and manners, as a documentation, to the wider post-Woodstock access in late 60's and early 70's (mapped by films of this period, Roger Corman, Dennis Hopper, Peter fonda, and Bob Rafelson).
...an artist without an art.

I categorically disagree w.r.to Mad Men. On BB, thanks. I see your point and as I said earlier, I don't have anything to offer even in terms of criticisms because I have not seen enough. Will definitely go back to watching it again. Nest meet panren.

Leaving out all the story, the performances and other parameters of making a movie what i like the most of in BB is how they film/show action on screen. No BS. No taking the viewer for granted.

Exactly. All other popular series tend to hit rock bottom in this aspect. Prison break for EG became a perarasu action movie in the 3rd and the 4th season.

i dono to compare as i have not much of the rest...
but the action sequences in BB were MB...
for instance, in the fly episode where walter accidentally falls from the top on a cylindrical metal tank and from there to the ground... so real... but only till that... i was only surprised to see no blood and he was up and working...
