Set against The Cuban Missile Crisis and the death of Marilyn Monroe, the second season of Matthew Weiner’s immaculately crafted early ‘60s set drama is decidedly more conventional than its predecessor, with less mystery and intrigue than before, as it continues to tell the stories of a group of chauvinistic, booze sodden ad men in a slowly changing Manhattan.
