I think what sets it apart is that it explores the workplace in both nostalgic and critical ways. I think people like shows that trans;port them to a shared past, even if it is a very exclusive, boys-club, segregated, and inherently racist and sexist past.

I would not rank it on the top ten TV dramas of all time though. Like all advertising, it is a cloud of lies and misdirection disguised as solid truth, or a solid truth disguised by a cloud of lies and misdirection.
