You were second. But I folded it into this one anyway.
I think the four threads I found are all accounted for now.
I just started watching this yesterday when Tivo caught two in one day. So I've seen episodes 5 & 6. It drags at times and the male actors really are pretty flat, though I suspect the producers intend it that way. More "modern" types appear more three dimensional (the jobless beatnik in the poetry bar). They want us to believe everyone was horribly repressed - especially the poor saps fumbling with their fedoras and overcoats.
I like the show - have to go pick up the first four episodes from iTunes. The thing for me is... well. This show presses a lot of memory buttons.
There's something about the women's styles of that time. Wow. And Christina Hendricks.
Holy Smoke.
