"It is using very real characters and context as a canvas for what is essentially a made-up story,” says Andy Greenwald. “...This maroons the narrative in an unfortunate no-man’s-land between fact and imagination. Unlike Mad Men, a ’60s-set drama that was free to bend its make-believe action figures every which way in pursuit of story, Masters sees every flight of fancy yanked rudely back in line with the public record.”
