So here’s an interesting little video I found over at the website MediaBistro. It’s of the cast and crew of Mad Men, one of my favorite shows ever, singing along to the main song from Bye Bye Birdie. In one of the more recent episodes, the folks at Sterling Cooper try to emulate Ann Margaret’s magical sex appeal in one of their advertising campaigns.

I don’t know whether to laugh, cringe, or join in: Don and Betty (Jon Hamm and January Jones) do an excellent dance, Roger Sterling (John Slattery) sings in drag, and Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) texts on an iPhone or Blackberry while still in character and 1960’s garb. 

Anyway, it’s definitely a departure from the norm and a real treat.
