TALKING SHOP: Janet Leahy, consulting producer on cult hit Mad Men, discusses the return of the show for its fifth season and why its writers think recent network period dramas like Pan Am and Playboy Club “imitated everything they understood but didn’t get it right.”
Leahy says: “It’s a group of really grateful, talented people who come together to work every day in a room, have a few snacks, have some lunch and get very focused and put together a story.”
In this episode, Leahy also talks about the creative risks being taken by cable channels, and how her career moved from comedy to drama.
