Christina Hendricks’s Joan Holloway ruled Mad Men’s office politics in red — style as substance, partner ambition, and AMC prestige brand craft. A neckline and a ledger made Madison Avenue’s gender wars look lethal. TV Flash still studies…

John Slattery’s Roger Sterling is Mad Men’s whiskey punctuation — Madison Avenue as a fitting room, silhouette as argument, a partner who treats history like lighting. Gray flannel to a last unguarded smile. On TV Flash he is AMC prestige…
