| I am interested to see how they handle that too. I am also interested to see how the show handles the progression of the 60's and Vietnam (If the show lasts that long.) |

I'm in the U.K. so it will be awhile before we get Season 3.

| Okay - so no spoilers without alerts, I expect. So far this season is mighty fine by me... plenty of interesting things right off the bat. Less wearing of hats, though.... |

| I think that is b/c Kennedy was just elected President and he didn't wear hats. They reference this last season (I think). I have heard somewhere that Kennedy ushered in the fashion of men not wearing hats, but I could be wrong. |
