Digitally remastered episodes of the beloved period drama “Mad Men” debuted on HBO Max this week with a host of production errors that inexplicably made their way to the streaming platform. <\/p>\n
HBO Max last month gleefully announced<\/a> it’d be streaming the Emmy-winning AMC show “in 4K, giving audiences and longtime MAD MEN fans the opportunity to enjoy the series\u2019 authentically-crafted elements with crisp detail and enhanced visual clarity.” <\/p>\n But when “Mad Men” hit the streaming service on Monday, viewers caught several basic production errors that somehow slipped into the final product. <\/p>\n\n In a Season 1 episode, a drunken Roger Sterling (played by John Slattery) threw up in the office in one of the most memorable “Mad Men” scenes. <\/p>\n And as Slattery was tossing cookies, HBO Max viewers could clearly see crew members \u2014 to the camera’s right \u2014 operating a device fueling Slattery’s fake vomit. <\/p>\n\n Then in a Season 2 episode, Peggy (played by Elisabeth Moss) could be seen walking on a 1960s New York City street \u2014 and strolling past a Mexican restaurant with its Los Angeles (213) phone number listed and an ad for cellphone SIM cards plastered on a neighboring building.<\/p>\n Viewers also caught episodes labeled with incorrect titles.<\/p>\n The mishaps were apparently due to the wrong files being delivered to HBO Max and producers are now scrambling to get the correct copies of the show to the streaming service.<\/p>\n “Mad Men” aired for 92 episodes from 2007 to 2015. <\/p>\n The drama, set in a 1960s New York City ad agency, featured Slattery, Moss, Jon Hamm, January Jones, Christina Hendricks and Vincent Kartheiser.<\/p>\n The show won 16 Emmys<\/a>, including four best drama awards. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
