The art is good. Beyond the entertainment value, it's a way to understand the zeitgeist of the era... you can watch it even from an anthropological perspective. It stings a little to admit that im old enough that periods of my own life could be studied from the standpoint of a historical science, but, that's just how she goes.

Several of the actors ended up being gigantic pieces of shit. While I think it's worth accepting that truth, I think the hard reality is that material success and any meaningful period of public reverence does that to a person. Any media you enjoy now, the reality is that the actors are probably pieces of shit too and it just hasn't come out yet... and again, that's just how she goes.
